lyrics

Chorus
_______

She never was chasing me
I was chasing she
It was not quite as it seemed
Hearts will always lead
it's all now, just a dream like we once were

Verse 1
________

I'm asking for better days in her eyes,
A future when she smiles like currency I fell for her, a couple of times/
I'm asking to heal her knees if she dare touch the ground, I'm asking to move,
Let's hope that her heart makes a better sound/ cause her pain was soundless
Hills never move so I climbed a mountain,
Meet me in the maize next to the fountain/
And let every coin resemble justice, poetry is not for hardships, pencils and pens are not for marking being stationery is the hardest,
Keep it moving, said the marksman/
Analyze the ground for strokes of broomsticks, patterns of charm and missing footprints/
Twisting her arm, touching her heart, let it rhyme in my favour,
Don't forget to dance, they won't mind if we naked/
Express your freedom, next to the trees and the papers, forget the sketchpads and the staplers,
Hope you got the right hand, and he's got the right foundation,
Cause he won't appreciate your rose if I leave with the pavement/

Chorus
________

She never was chasing me
I was chasing she
It was not quite as it seemed
Hearts will always lead
it's all now, just a dream like we once were

Verse 2
________
I remember when I cried,
Tears like raindrops when they fell down,
Don't forget that all love takes time,
So take yours, don't take mine,
Don't take mine,
Don't you remember when I tried,
To hold you back from all your passed lives,
And now our time is up,
It's only him you trust,
No room for me, no room for we,
Just you and him,
Your type of us...

Chorus
________

She never was chasing me
I was chasing she
not quite as it seemed
Hearts will always lead
it's all now, just a dream like we once were

about

SOAW Johannesburg, South Africa

The essence of art is for it to allow for freedom. The remarkability of music stems from the deepest sense of self.

My name is SOAW, it stands for Socially Awkward and that is my deepest sense of self. I create from within, from my awkward, that is my essence.
