here they are!

the last two:

BREAKTHROUGHS & BREAKDOWNS

My problem, problem, problem, problem is/ There's to many words inside my head/ Why don't they go somewhere else instead?

Oh well at least it makes for some interesting lyrics/ Then along comes some guy from the media clinic/ And says "Hey! What about the music?"/ And that's when I totally lose it/ Cos I can't keep my eyes on seven different things at the same time

I'm breaking through/ I'm breaking down/ I'm not giving up/ Because I'm gaining ground/ Am I breaking up?/ Cos I've made so many mistakes/ Still I know this much/ God's with me I'm not about to break

INTRORESPECTIVE

Crossed out lines, divided lives/ It's hard to see when you're looking from your own eyes/ Lost inside the safe confines/ That make up this mind of mine

Why am I so introrespective/ Is all I need a change of perspective/ Stop looking inside/ Start looking outside/ Even if it's hard to see the world from your own eyes

All my problems fade away/ I see the things some people face/ When half the world is starving/ How can I laugh and say everythings fine?/ When it's not alright/ My problems seem so small/ After the worlds death call

How can I ignore this call outside myself/ It's true I want to show them something else/ The hope that is found in you

No longer introrespective/ I feel your love is reaching now/ And changing, changing, changing me/ From the inside out

I fail at getting things finished.

For instance about a week ago I was keen as to write some more songs.....turned out I only got around to writing one more. And I waited agggggggeeeess to write this blog (no doubt leaving our 20+ followers on tenderhooks :) haha) for the simple reason that I did not video myself and I'm bad at getting things finished. I suck at it! Despite having plenty of good music going on, including a nice little piece with some leads and an interesting switch from a normal to a minor key, I just could not get the lyrics done for that, or for my other half finished piece.
What a mess!
Anyway on the plus side, our EP is going into print REALLY soon! It's not going to be a big print run, so if you want one in your hot little hands you better get it quick! Not quite sure how it'll come your way other than us playing at your hometown, but hopefully we'll think something up. Sometimes we can be pretty good at that.
Anyway, hopefully I can finish off the rest of this post tommorrow.
Addios,

Jordan
