about

A song that I had half-written a while back but never finished, which resurfaced during the first lockdown, and the bizarre situation we found ourselves in gave the inspiration to finish it off.

lyrics

Weary, wasted, once again
getting back up off the floor
some folks just don't seem to learn
keep on coming back for more
feels like I'm in a darkened room
and I can't find the door
so I keep banging my head against the wall
but it don't show no signs it's going to fall

The future seems so long ago
it just drifted out of sight
but I'm not prepared to let it go
without putting up a fight
groping in the darkness
trying to find some kind of light
I keep banging my head against the wall
but it don't show no signs it's going to fall

Then I start to see some shadows moving
somewhere in the gloom
and hear whispered voices coming from
the corners of the room

And I'm still banging my head against the wall
but now I find that it don't hurt at all
