Stranger Than Fiction

(album: Further EP - 2010)

Sometimes life is stranger than fiction
But the weird thing seems to be,
That the storyline don't stick to the script and
The characters involved don't match the description
We all tied up yet we still trippen
Over the small things which seems to all bring
Me Back to when I first started
A hopeless romantic left broken hearted...
A bright eye teen who seemed to disregard
Any advice given bout my future plans
I had to go and make things hard
Was told to go to school was told to be a man, damn…
But I didn't grow up or be the lucky winner on “who wanna blow up”
And that's fine, shit happens, all the trouble makes a better storyline...action
And I tried…
I tried to make something out of nothing before
I tried to leave the past on the cutting room floor
But the story runs until the credits roll…
But I do know
(That I tried)
I tried to put all the blame on everyone else
Lookin for excuses rather than some help,
I Know that feeling, when you don't fit in,
It's stranger than fiction...
Play your part in the scene never knowing lines
A beautiful backdrop, a role undefined...
September nights where breezes brushed across my back
Staring at the sky, Fading in the black
Scratch your fingernails cross the storyboard I'm bored
I may need to be woken up from the scene before
And when the plot begins to twist and turn
I'll try my best to keep myself on the road and learn…
Quiet on the set, lights camera action, take one, one take, no mistakes
Cut check the gate now roll the tape,
Separate the real, from the fake
Put the score on board and it sound great
No dialogue forced on course the breaks
Take 5,
Try and enjoy the day
