(Sorry about the room noise picked up by my mic lol)

All my life, I’ve been a slave,

All my life, I’ve never known how to behave,

When you have no direction, you’re easily led astray,

When you’re left in the dark, with no one to show you the way,

You just keep drifting, drifting away,

You just keep drifting, drifting away,

The current carries a boat without a sail,

And you keep drifting, drifting away.    

All my life, I’ve been afraid,

All my life, I’ve been played,

When you have no self-control, you’re a slave to sin,

And with your soul as the prize, the devil will win.

So keep on drifting, drifting away,

You just keep drifting, drifting away,

The current carries a boat without a sail,

And you keep drifting, drifting away. 

Hook:

I wish we could go back to the start 

But all we do is drift apart

V1:

So lets go back to the start 

Try not to pick it apart

Back when the history book about us had no broken heart

You said you'd love me enough 

You wouldn't change me either 

Then went looking for another dick or Harry to please ya

So fuck you I don't need ya find another receiver

Of the bullshit that I never even wanted to see 

You want to know why I stayed 

It wasn't for the weird mind games you played 

But I have to say, I call a spade a spade

So I'm glad you fucked around because it helped your sex game

Explain why you act like you've been hurt

You're dirt, you think those puppy eyes are gonna work

No way miss, I'm wise to those eyes 

So keep your damn kiss here's where this shit dies 

Whenever you get sad about us 

and think this should have been cherished 

just know that you're the reason that we perished

---

V2:

Maybe I'm just negative, overlooking the good

Too focused on the bad and not on what I should

You could make me laugh, you were cute as a chick 

But did you have to suck another guy's dick?

If I had to pick, it would make me sick 

over thinking about the good times that I'm going to miss

I should have seen the signs, but I was blind to find

A solution so instead I just closed my eyes

We grew further apart, I'd be lying if I said it came out of the dark, we both played our parts

Maybe I pushed you away, I should have made you stay

Become more appealing so you're less tempted to stray 

But when you play away, the day of our relationship is over, so shoulder the burden that you showed her

And would I have done anything different, I don't know

(lyrics and melody by Mrs Toen)

Ivy flows around the gate

Holding the memories from my last mistake

Missing you back in this place

I tell the flowers what you used to say

Look I didn't have a choice

   Still chose her though

Just tried to make a friend

   And then I betrayed her

I did everything I could to save her

   I knew what I was doing and I knew that it would break her

I'm still a good person

   Who does bad things

I can't shake off this guilt

   I keep it a secret.

I'll make up for it somehow

If it happened again I would only repeat it

Ivy flows around the gate

Holding the memories from my last mistake

Missing you back in this place

I tell the flowers what you used to say

The fence-is rusted and overgrown

Na-ture come...  to take back what we owe

Ma-king up for long ago

I leave you flowers so you're not alone

SNES style track \o\

With what little time i had, i expanded on a bluesy rocky kind of idea i did before hand, to make this. For the most part i was just upgrading the sounds from MIDI. Yeah it's electronic, but that's all i can do for the moment! Enjoy!

dont you go into that light

you just have to stay and fight

it's too early for goodnight

dont drift off to the afterlife

send a message to be read

are you barely alive or mostly dead

this is what our missive said

dont drift off to the afterlife

floating through your days

you think you're awake

the accident was long ago

all through limbo now aglow

spirit's trapped and starts to flow

don't drift off to the afterlife

sleeper now you must awaken

sound and body now reclaiming

back to life away from heaven

don't drift off to the afterlife

float through your days

you think you're awake

Drifttttttttttttttiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
