Description
This is a song about trying not to get caught up in what everyone else is doing and just maintaining a level of decency. The lyrics are pretty simple and to the point. I wrote it about ten years ago while I was in high school and recorded this version about two years ago because I can still relate to the lyrics. I played all the instruments on the recording including guitars, bass, drums and vocals. It's off my album "Zentralsinn".
Lyrics
Everybody's got their ideas, And I've got mine, Everyone's pointing their fingers, Who's got the crooked spine? Gotta keep living your own life, Cause' everyone's gotta figure their own out... And get by Everyone's alone in this world, So why press your beliefs? Seems like some people Want others on a leash, Gotta keep living your own life, Cause' everyone's gotta figure their own out And I know whatever right may be, I've gotta keep my own decency, And I know Whatever right may be, I've gotta keep my own sanity Ask a question, Get an opinion, That's not what I need, I need something we can agree on, And some consistency, Gotta keep living your own life, Cause' everyone's gotta figure their own out And I know whatever right may be, I've gotta keep my own decency, And I know Whatever right may be, I've gotta keep my own sanity
