about

Completed during lockdown, this track is incredibly personal to me but also resonates with wider themes. It was written about breaking free of familiar, self-destructive patterns and overcoming the shadows of doubt. It also speaks of how we all have problems that may be better solved together.

lyrics

Lyrics: Oooh oooh oooh oooh ooh

What to do with damaged goods
Of the mind, under this hood
What to say of damaged goods
Overlooked, misunderstood

It's fair to say I get in my own way
Let's get something straight
I need to break away
It's fair to say we get in our own way
Day by day by day (yeah)
Day by day by day

Oooh oooh oooh oooh ooh

What to do with damaged goods
In a heart, battered and bruised
What to say of damaged goods
Seldom seen, misunderstood

It's fair to say I get in my own way
Let's get something straight
I need to break away
It's fair to say we get in our own way
Day by day by day (yeah)
Day by day by day

It's fair to say I get in my own way
Let's get something straight
I need to break away
It's fair to say we get in our own way
Day by day by day (yeah)
Day by day by day

One way or another
We're all each other's cousins
In life, in the way we feel
Will you hold me brother?
Share the load?
It doesn't matter or make us any less real.
One way or another
We're all each other's cousins
In life, in the pain we feel
Will you hold me brother?
Share the load?
It doesn't matter or make us any less real.

It's fair to say I get in my own way
Let's get something straight
I need to break away
It's fair to say we get in our own way
Day by day by day (yeah)
Day by day by day

Oooh oooh oooh oooh ooh
