Plan A 04:10
From webpages to photographs To scribbled maps and diagrams It came to me like a parcel from overseas Sending me gone like paper planes Well look up now there I go Over hills and so far away Bet you never realized Caught up in schedules and meetings Since you didn’t think to call me when I took off or landed I think about that more now when I should be Looking out at scenery and the beauty of greenery And how to make a move my way through the music industry To long nights, the sweat, dirt To whatever comes next first Livin’ life on a plan A CHORUS: I'm sitting in the back seat So take me where I gotta be Getting by with oh so little Rolling past a city without the glamour and the spotlight Oh I’m playing where I can 24/7 I guess I’m used to it, used to it so much it don’t matter Multiple occasions of losing friends to lovers oh Got nothin’ on me but a plan A, A Ain't nada but a plan A, A, A, A So what’s it to ya if I got Nada but a plan A Today took time out out of playing on streets To be stuck inside a studio And there I found releasing music’s harder being so analytical And above all obsessive in perfection and that said I’m sorry for the wait that it’s taken Prefer to put out into the real world what I’m proud of Music’s more than just a hobby I’m not gonna be a cheap cover copy But an honest singer-songwriter I gain satisfaction by not going to uni Can’t you see mama this is a heart decision From in my head onto paper, pop filter to global speakers Look at who’s the busybody, yeah And for those who don’t believe in me I don’t need you consistently Feeding me what I already know I’ll leave here as A A anonymous Come back a name on my home turf That’s the plan A (CHORUS) Nada, nada, nada but a plan A Nada, nada, nada but a plan A So put it here if you know what I’m sayin’, hey Put it here if you know what I’m sayin’ Nada, nada, nada but a plan A Nada, nada, nada but a plan A So put it here if you know what I’m sayin’, hey Put it here if you know what I’m sayin’, oh Nada, nada, nada but a plan A Nada, nada, nada but a plan A So put it here if you know what I’m sayin’, hey Put it here if you know what I’m sayin’, oh (CHORUS) It's nada but a plan A Can't you see, can't you see It's nada but a plan A Nada but a plan A So remember that yeah 'Cause nothing else matters yo Nada but a plan A

Somebody give me a piece of thread and a needle Somebody is gonna see me through better off on the other side Mountain ranges span across the land where I must go Into no-mans land who knows when I’ll be back again With a carry on backpack Searching for more in life isn’t easy It’s a job for some while The rest of us point to the sky as if to say CHORUS: Where do I go, nobody knows Not even a dream will tell me No dream will tell me Where do I go, nobody’s home I need to stop myself From thinking too far Everybody gets a chance to somehow rise above In the heat of the moment Crying out loud in desperation But there’s no one out here to save me now Save me now I’m talkin’ ‘bout wheels of fate And if I’ll ever see the light of day (CHORUS) Where do I go, nobody knows Where do I go, nobody knows Where do I go, nobody knows Where do I go, nobody knows Where do I go, nobody knows I need to stop myself from thinking too far Where do I go, nobody knows ‘Cause you've done this a thousand times Yeah yeah 'cause you've done this a thousand times Where do I go, nobody knows Where do I go, nobody knows Where do I go, nobody knows Where do I go, nobody knows, no Where do I go, nobody knows Where do I go, nobody knows Where do I go, nobody knows Where do I go, nobody knows, no Where do I go, nobody knows

Honestly, every time that you touch me it's just casually 
 Something that you do that makes every girl you know Fall in love with you

 Everyday, I wake up and wonder how you do it so perfectly It must be the kindness in your eyes and heart And people like that are hard to find

 CHORUS: But I know You love her, not me
 You love her, not me, yeah You love her, not me So why do you, why do you, why do you care now? You love her, not me
 You love her, not me
, yeah You love her, not me
 Well how many times have you told me now? So I've heard You're moving along quite well together 
 And how your days are complete only when she's around you
 But how come I am the one you run to

 Oh please talk to me I think you're getting yourself confused 
 At times like these You tell me I mean the world to you But I'm so sure you tell her the same thing

 (CHORUS) Oh Oh Oh Oh So take a step back And realize what you do
 And take a step back Maybe what you've been taught to say ain't what you feel inside
 Take a step back To think it through
 And take a step back Why can't you see that she's the one you're really into
 Because I can see

 But you love her, not me 'Cause you love her, not me Woah Oh Oh Oh Oh Woah Oh Oh Oh Oh 'Cause you love her, not me
 You love her, not me, yeah You love her, not me So why do you, why do you, why do you care now? You love her, not me
 You love her, not me
, yeah You love her, not me
 Well how many times have you told me now? Woah Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh

Wondering 05:53
This sound I know too well We’ve given up So take the last stand And bleed out This love I remember so well Now when we wake Alone in our beds We’re not the same CHORUS: But we keep wondering But we keep wondering For release, hopeful For salvation This space I don’t know too well Feeling ashamed for calling your name Now the plug’s been pulled And this time I remember those signs That point to 'trying' But not once I tried I guess this must die Woah (CHORUS) For salvation Ooh Ooh We are searching through the rubble of a broken mess We are searching through the rubble of a broken mess We are searching through the rubble of a broken mess We are searching through the rubble of a broken mess We are searching through the rubble of a broken mess We are searching through the rubble of a broken mess Ooh we are So keep wondering you know, yeah you know Neither want to end Neither want to be alone So here we are Standing still with so much to loose So is there hope, left A little left for us? So is there hope, left A little left for us? So is there hope, left A little left for us? So is there hope, left A little left for us? Left for us Left for us So let's keep wondering So let's we keep wondering For release, hopeful For salvation I'm just wondering

A long night take the train ride home When the city lights only make you feel small The extension of my hand tells you I am waiting, waiting Yeah, yeah I feel you’re on the edge on the verge of running, running Yeah, yeah CHORUS: It is safe to come home, Ooh We can go dancing round I’ll be careful with where I step Where I step Before I loose the last thread Ah ah ah ah ah Ooh Ah ah ah ah ah I’m scared to think now getting it off my chest When all you know love can change that around The temptation to find out if you are really coming, coming Yeah, yeah It bring me to the core and into what I’m saying, saying Yeah, yeah, yeah (CHORUS) Though I may not be the brightest star you’ve laid your eyes upon Now I wait to hear the words that speak the truth of mind And whatever that may be Will you forget me? Don’t let this drag out for long When you’re ready just know for sure It is safe to come home We can go dancing around, yeah Before I loose the last thread Ah ah ah ah ah Ooh Ah ah ah ah ah Before I loose the last thread now Ah ah ah ah ah Ooh Ah ah ah ah ah Before I loose the last thread now Before, before, I loose the last thread Before, before I loose the last thread Before, before, I loose the last thread now

New 03:25
A new year, hey A new space to grow Seems like, hey We are breaking through the ice this time And I can sense the urge to run Free at last A few years, hey To learn that we’ve got One love, hey It has found a better light And everything is going right Such clarity CHORUS: I see it all new I see it all new I like where this is going I like where we are headed Oh I see it all new Yeah I see it, I see it, I see it I see it all new New York, hey Aim for the stars Right now, hey We are flying gaining altitude Believe we’re gonna make it through Just wait and see (CHORUS) We're taking out the old It’s better the feeling when you know it Burns brighter and eyes grow wider Surprised and inspired when you see it now Taking out the old It’s better the feeling when you know it Burns brighter and eyes grow wider Surprised and inspired when you see it now (CHORUS)

about

This record is about "breaking through". Breaking through the constraint of needing a backup plan to do what it is you REALLY want to do, to let go of certain thoughts or memories only holding you back, to have absolutely no idea where you’re going yet willing to go beyond comfort to experience the ‘new’. That's the Plan A.
