lyrics

You're drumming on my door
Where I am pressed against the floor
And pressed for breath
And I'm a man, but often manic
I am the pound and I am the panic in my chest

There's a side of you that's tried and true
That tried to do the best with what I gave
But my anxiety's like prejudice and lecithin
It's in everything these days

Keep on coming over,
Keep on coming around
And kicking the door down
I need it more now
Than you'll ever know
I got myself sober
So my mind's a little quicker,
Quicker on the draw now
Better the devil you know
Than some drunkard you don't

Here's to the hopeless, the hopeful and hope-filling
The unstable, unable and unwilling
And here's to those who need a break from feeling broke
Here's to finding what it takes for us to cope
For us to cope

Well I kept my drug store saviours at arm's length
At the expense of better sleep
Though it taught me to be patient
That brand of education don’t come cheap

And my shoulders grind most of the time,
But that's fine, I'm told it's where I hold my stress
Most of what I hold just tends to vanish
So I'm surprised there's any left

Keep on coming over,
Keep on coming around
And kicking the door down
I need it more now
Than you'll ever know
I got myself sober
So my mind's a little quicker,
Quicker on the draw now
Better the devil you know
Than some drunkard you don't


Here's to those who need a break from feeling broke
And here's to finding what it takes for us to cope

about

The Northern Folk image

The Northern Folk Melbourne, Australia

The Northern Folk are a unique collective of eleven songsmiths and instrumentalists, wielding a brand of tightly woven alt- folk magnified by massive arrangements and colourful indie-pop sensibilities. With two charismatic vocalists, they defy the odds to avoid overcrowding- in sound, if not on stage- creating songs that deftly move from poetic lyricism to horn-saturated eruptions. ... more
