lyrics

We pass like the clouds
That go over the mountain
Changing to move smoothly over
The landscape that holds us below
As we're blown by the wind
That sees all
But tells us of nothing
We're lost to the words
That it once had to say

We twist and we turn
Like the sycamore seed
Spiralling down
To collide with the ground
But we don't have the power
To take root and grow
We like discarded stones
Dislodged with ease

Why does it all seem so fruitless?
When all that we want
Is to be one with everything
It should be so easy
But whenever we try
It feels like we're losing control

We're lost in a maze
Of concrete and stone
Dragging our feet in the dirt
Being numbed by the noise
The racing of life
Is too quick to take in
All the signs
That are there to be seen
But are getting ignored

Why does it all seem so fruitless?
When all that we want
Is to be one with everything
It should be so easy
But whenever we try
It feels like we're losing
A part of ourselves
As we leave things behind
We're missing the contact
That we once took for granted
It's so hard to find something
Lost for so long
Its essence is blown
By this culture-less wind
You can just catch sight
Just catch a sound
Can't quite grab hold
And if feels like
We're losing control

Wob UK

Acoustic Country/folk Punk probably describes me best at the moment

"A spring heeled, iron lunged avalanche of energy and melody.
Wob's sound is a glorious and intelligent blend of punk, pop and folk."
