lyrics

Oh I've been craving, I need some saving
These days it feels so hard to toe the line
I'm barely coping, and I keep hoping
My eyes are open, waiting for a sign

Oh please direct me, everything affects me
I get lost every second of the day
And so naive, you'd not believe
Swayed by every word they have to say

Who needs persistence, there's no resistance
I'm lost at the end of the first phrase
It's just so easy to mislead me
Flick of the wrist and they've got me in a daze

CHORUS:
Seduction, predation, games of manipulation
The drunks and the lyers and them old con men
They've got quite the knack for driving me off track
Under the influence again

Try to conceal it, but they can feel it
Some kind of weakness buried deep inside
And they come creepin', and slowly seep in
Before I know it it's too late to run and hide

They see it coming, and they come running
Like lions praying on the frail
Target selected, strategy perfected
Like a hunter setting up his trail

CHORUS

I need cohesion, a voice of reason
Somebody to keep me in check
Who I adhere to, open up my ears to
'Cause alone I end up one big nervous wreck

I need an adviser, someone who's wiser
Somebody to keep me going strong
Someone to guide me, walk beside me
'Cause this dilema's just been going on too long

CHORUS

Hi! I'm Rebecca, musician and poet.

I create songs faster than I have the budget to produce them.

But emotion is for expressing in the here and now, impossible to set it into a perfectly polished stone.

So here is a collection of my songs, some more professional than others, but all authentic expressions.

Thanks for supporting ! ... more
