Verse 1
I see you’re back doing something you never
Said you’d do again
Don’t you feel like a bit of a hypocrite?
But how else you gonna pay the rent
You know, they think, what you’re doing is stupid
You feel you got no other choice
Chorus 1
And slowly doubts
Are creeping in
The way out
Disappearing
You tell yourself
It’s all ok
But from day to day
You’re fading away
Verse 2
Back picking up where you left off
Doing what you can
But the inspiration is hard to find
Like any perfect master plan
And as the time is slipping by
The twinkle in your eye is more of a glaze
Chorus 2
And slowly doubts
Are creeping in
The way out
Disappearing
You tell yourself
It’s all ok
But from day to day
You’re fading away
Bridge
Cause each day, is just the same
Another face, without a name
Before you know it each day is a year
And nothing at alls changed
All this time, you said it right
You won’t go down, without a fight
But when you’re staring at that screen all day
A piece of you, fading away
Chorus 3
And slowly doubts
Are creeping in
The way out
Disappearing
You tell yourself
It’s all ok
But from day to day
You’re fading away

I never listen to the radio much anymore. Turned it on the other day and heard "Don't Belong" followed by an interview on PBS. Purchased the digital release and the vinyl immediately. Just love the whole EP. Please keep making your brilliant brand of music - Ash Osgood. Ash Osgood
The lead singer of punk band Camp Cope ventures into romantic synth-pop territory, tempering slick arrangements with bare sentiment.
