So here we are in 2020
Stuck inside with revolution on the telly...
Public divide
People have died
Another pig, another pig man
With no control and that's the problem
Public on fire
People have lied
And I think I'm just about ready to blow
I wanna make this personal
Because I'm out of sympathy
And you don't mean shit to me
You are not my government
You don't speak for me
This isn't 1973...
So eat the bullshit from the fat man
We're going nowhere and there is no plan
Public divide
People have died
Beyond belief?
Well here's the story
They want you on your knees
Don't ever trust a tory
Public on fire
People have lied
And I think I'm just about ready to blow
I wanna make this personal
Because I'm out of sympathy
And you don't mean shit to me
You are not my government
You don't speak for me
This isn't 1973...
So eat the bullshit from the fat man
Because we still seek grace
We will die without a trace
The evolution seems so clear
Just pretend we were never here

The anxious mind

Lately, you know that your ego is failing
Caught in a circle of fuck ups and self shaming
You blackout
You freak out
You drown in the suffering
Take a breath
With blurry sight
You take a bite
But got no appetite
Fear comes home
From every side
You lose that fight to the anxious mind
Reaching for something harder to cope with the drama
Any release from the asphyxiating horror
You're lost
Anti social
And fortunes are fading away
Take a breath
With blurry sight
You take a bite
But got no appetite
Fear comes home
From every side
You lose that fight to the anxious mind
You bleed till the feeling is gone
Then it hits you
Just when you are all alone
Then it hits you
That's when it hits you

It's been a hell of a year
Trying to find my way again
Getting sick and coping on my own again
The darkest times had me wishing for my life to end
I was begging for escape
I was self medicating and never seeing my friends
And I've been at the bottom of a bottle
Weak and terrified
Choking on the fear of being dead inside
I'm never gonna cry about it
I'm not even close to grounded
Don't make me the bad guy
I might be pissing around and break a few faces now and then
Don't make me the bad guy
Everything you say and do is coming back on you
You try and face the fear
You get yourself nice and wet
But with all respect people may forgive but they will never forget
So let me make this crystal clear
I'm never going back again
Now the debts have all been paid
There's only one direction where the story can end
And I've been at the bottom of a bottle
Weak and terrified
Choking on the fear of being dead inside
I'm never gonna cry about it
I'm not even close to grounded
Don't make me the bad guy
I might be pissing around and break a few faces now and then
Don't make me the bad guy
Everything you say and do is coming back on you

Think I'm done telling myself I'm alright
Gotta try telling the truth
Dinking from the bottle almost every night
Like I ain't got nothing to lose
You ain't a hero cause you're down on your knees
You're broke apart and so easy to please
You got addictions like they are your only friend
They hang around and are something you can depend on
I think the devil will take me
Before addiction will break me
You try and medicate me
But baby I'm a losing bet
Maybe I'm just medicating
Trying to find a reason
My soul is decaying
Even in the mean time
Thanks for understanding
Helping me
Baby, that was not my plan
Cos I think if you knew me
Maybe you would hate me
In the way that I do
And that is not my plan
Thanks for understanding

Really cool collection of demos and rough takes. The music still sounds great without the studio sheen, and it’s cool to hear some of your favorite Wildhearts tracks when they were in the planning stages. It gives the listener and fan a neat perspective. Cheers!
