The Apple & The Tree

(album: Innocence And Decadence - 2015)

I remember the days I don't recall
It was a time of innocence and decadence
Oh the fights, the fun and the ignorance
Now you're always under influence

A long hard fall from oblivion
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree
Too young and scared to let it be you and me
Too full of ourselves to see how it was gonna be

Never had an easy living but it's the only life you've ever known
You've been good you've been bad you've been different
That's how it goes for people like me and you

Ain't it strange how the cards are dealt?
You say tomorrow seems as bad as yesterday
That you live because you have to not because you wanna stay
Then there's those who die trying to get away

Never had an easy living but it's the only life you've ever known
You've been good you've been bad you've been different
That's how it goes for people like me and you

So sick of people telling us who we are
I'm neither or I'm everything and in between
I'm nothing or something that you've never ever seen
Life's a repetition how it's always been

Never had an easy living but it's the only life you've ever known
You've been good you've been bad you've been different
That's how it goes for people like me and you
