I guess you thought you could bring me under I guess you thought you could pull me down You didn't know I could live on over Life kicks on, without you Your little streak to try and bring me down All the times you're turning push me around I'm not the boy you thought would turn and crawl away The sun is shining down on this man's brighter days So this coops flew I'm gunna start a new Yeah ciao to you and here's just what I'll do I'm not the kind to stay as you're pushing me away The sun is shining down on this man's brighter days It's not so bad to be where I am today The world belongs to me, the free man all the way The pain it fades as time clears the haze The sun is shining down on this man's brighter days

I've done my time, I've paid my dues I've done my time, I've paid my dues I've done all I can to repay my sins I'm not gunna get back on that horse again. I've done my time, I've paid my dues For what it's worth, it was never you I've done all I can to repay my sins Sold my fate to watch the end begin The days are fighting, Timeless dripping down. Ends are winding... And I dont know what I'm doing all the time What I do today will set me apart Yesterday is but a blink in the past What I do today will be my new start Another chance to take and turn from the dark The days are fighting, Timeless dripping down. Ends are winding... And I dont know what I'm doing all the time On the day I find my sins have come again I promised to me I won't fall for them again The dirty habits come and kick me to the floor Long gone the days when I dreamed of something more

At Night... 03:12
take your time to say your silence. take your time to build your hill take your time to say you're righteous You know, you need your fill You're damaged goods, you're far from honest Your personal, projected hell You're bearing down a weight on others. Your painful, unending dwell. Nothing works, you fucked it up again All you touch just turns to shit. Awake at night you're wrecked and nervous Alone inside and sick of it At night... Understand it's not you breathing Understand it's not your fault You're not perfect, I'm not either. The darkest blows in life's assault At night... Rest your head upon my shoulder Take your time to see things through Just a step, just one step further We're all here, supporting you. Don't take it out on those around you Driving those who care away. You're not perfect, They're not either. Find our place in this old game. Awake at night I'm wrecked and nervous Stuck inside and sick of it The undefined is burning me up. Not alone but I feel it.

Leaves 03:17
The way the leave fall through the trees The way the light shines down on me The way the flowers on the plants Bloom in spring across the land The gravel trampled underfoot On an inner city roof The waking streams of broken dreams Dreams of effervescent streams I see life go on without me My problems come and consume me I see life go on without me My dreams turn and pursue me

about

The debut EP from abe&tell.

Written in Hamburg, recorded in Sydney.

An album about the brighter side of breakups, being your own worst enemy, skipping across the globe and forgetting your mum's birthday. To be enjoyed with a beer and a brandy.
