about

A bead of sweat slowly makes its way down my creased brow. It runs along the bridge of my nose and dives off the end, sailing past my frozen fingers and gracefully landing on the keyboard. It was week five of free music and I'm shit out of ideas. The clock ticks menacingly on the wall. The pressure begins to mount as my chest tightens and it feels like the walls are closing in. What if I just fluffed out some crap about writer's block? That could work..... Have a listen to St Peter, while I work out what to put next.

lyrics

See me at the fork in your road.
I hold all that you've ever known.
I am the dirt stuck underneath your nails
I'll be on your last ship that ever sails.

I know you won't wait
patiently for me but,
We both know damn well
That I'm the one who holds
your wings.
While you're here won't
you overcome your fears and
Settle your scores with dignity.

See me in the back of your mind.
I'll be the only one you'll see
At the end of the line.
Slowly invisibly, I'll make you weak.
I'll spread through you like cancer
My name is all you'll ever speak.
