lyrics

When you close your eyes
Does it all well up inside
Until you feel you're jumping into
The river and tied to your legs
Is the weight of your mistakes?
You open the door to let them go
But you can't force their fingers

A sound from the woods
Has you clutching at your bedclothes
As it blows in on the wind
It moans and it cries
Your name all night long
It keeps you from sleeping
Your imagination won't be told
That it's so irrational

Everything is closing in
Trapping you in the corner
You try to resist but sometimes
Temptation holds the higher card
And you stumble to your knees
Don't give in just hold on

You're out at sea
And the waves buffet like people
Unaware that you are
As lost as you seem
The cracks in the pavement
Offer to swallow you but...
You keep your head above
Treading water
Keeping it all to yourself
Hold on
While you've still got
Something to hold on to

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."
