about
This track is performed by my live band Extra Curricular. The guitarist had layed down an idea for a loop, i took the recording and wrote the track to it. Again to do with the polarity of male and female relationships but not focussing on sex like "First Impressions" but the other unfortunate side of relationships called "a relationship. Haha na jokes aside, this is again a composite of relationships and potential relationships that never took off because we couldnt find common ground on our lifestyles. Many a man relates to this and i'm sure many a lady does as well. If you are not familiar with my work with Extra Curricular check us out here

lyrics
Verse 1
How could I prioritise?
yesterdays promise became tomorrows lies
at the beginning i was on your side
one of the same, now we're not a like
what so ever, so i severed our common ties
you said "in my head's where the problem lies"
i said "you're probably right" my arragonce was not disguised
in the slightest, night after night we'd tend to fight
and pride is the trigger that makes my temper rise
and you're oh so trigger happy, init?
i can take it for a while but then i have to give it
see we squabble like kids and its followed by fits
of frustration, im pissed off, balling my fists
like, "stop provoking, if another word is spoken ill..."
BAM, next thing i know a peice of furnatures broken
i spoke to your mum, like "we're coping,
we're cool" but we're cold, in fact we're practically frozen
i get the notion a split is in store
i've heard it before, "love dont live here anymore"
theres plenty more fish in the sea and my bait is tasty
i only say that so when this record is played you'll hate me
coz i'm the same as you, just tryin to get a reaction
physically i left, but there's still a mental attachment
seeing you with anyone is just jealousy
and everytime i'm belling you, you continue tellin me
Chorus
I am here, as sure as the sun rising up in the morning
and not just sometimes baby i mean always
but would you be that dedicated for me?
take the wheel and steer, this automatic routine got me feeling empty
why do you seem as if you resent me? you should choose if you're with me or against me
Verse 2
and at the root of it, i know that my music is
the reason that we're beefing, coz we dont have the same view on it
i just cant give it to you the way that you want it
and we cant exist in a relationship thats platonic
i know you see this like a hobby of mine
just a guilty little pleasure that is hoggin my time
and that time, should be quality time the two of us are sharing
so in your mind, when i was on tour i wasnt caring
see if i wore a suit to work and sat behind a desk
that domesticated little boyfriend puts your mind a rest
but coz i'm making calls, writing songs and doing shows
you think its my social life extended to the studio
and you're the one i shouldnt have to convince
ye this isnt as bad as you imagine it is
na, i said "in your head's where the problem lies"
but you just denied it, shook it and then shut your eyes
fuck it, its like your brain is impenatrable
your values set in stone, but they'll be left in rubble
when it all falls down, by the time the penny drops
the outcome dont even matter and all bets are off
see, im one man, i got a weakness of two
and every 3 or 4 weekends i been speaking to you
and a part of me regrets every time i said hello
coz we get in conversation and its then you let me know
Chorus
I am here, as sure as the sun rising up in the morning
and not just sometimes baby i mean always
but would you be that dedicated for me?
take the wheel and steer, this automatic routine got me feeling empty
why do you seem as if you resent me? you should choose if you're with me or against me
