Focus 05:47
Focus Had barely enough soul……….. To get bye………. To live a day not wanting to die…….. Time after time………… And after time…………… I saw it with my own eyes……….. Sunglasses to repress the light………….. I only feel at home alone on the darkest nights……… Cold enough to freeze up tight…………. Oh I…………… Hide away, beneath…… Shy…. From the tide Chorus: Fall away!……………. Hey………… And focus on the blur today……………… Cast away…………… Yeahhh hey………… And where the skipping stone, lands, you'll stay…………… You’ll stay…. You could live a lie………………… You could live…….. Live a lot………………………. Tears shall spill and blood will clot, Tell me are you strong enough?…….. I've been packing up my bag for the road……… Got a pocket full of woes and a shank in my coat…….. Been sleeping with a mind tied to bones……. Of the souls and hearts I broke long ago……… Ohhh!!!!!!! You could live a lie………………… You could live……… Live a lot………………………. Tears shall spill and blood will clot, Tell me are you strong enough?…….. Fall away!……………. Hey………… And focus on the blur today……………… Cast away…………… Yeahhh hey………… And where the skipping stone, lands, you'll stay……………. You’ll stay…. Who?................................ Who?................................ Who?................................ Who?....................... Are you?......................... Who?................................ Who?................................ Who?................................ Who?....................... Are you?......................... Fade away!……………. Hey………… And focus on the blur today……………… Cast away…………… Yeahhh hey………… And where the skipping stone, falls, you'll stay……………. I…………………. I……… Yaighh……………….. Wave goodbye…………… To the light………….. Through the day………….. Into the night………… I…………………. I……… Yaighh………………. Cry………………… I started this with the riff and first verse on 05/01/2013. The Doors & Oasis vibe production wise. It’s a tune about depression and was one of the first from a big batch of 2013 Jim Morrison inspired material. I recorded a live jam shortly after starting it and freestyled some verses then transcribed them.

Broken Gates 05:40
Sunset's on another day………… Oh to fall apart, or, fall astray? I'll meet you at the broken gates……… Cos I know we're headed the same old way………….. Drag me down to hell………………. Then up to heaven as well……………. Because I need to see it all……………… [Umm hmmm……….] Before the day I rise……..….…… And fall…………………. Watch your step, and baby breathe deep when there's nothing left………. Cah mother nature's gon' lips you with her kiss of death……………….. I saw young guns blazing down the graveyard dark……………… Profess their love, and carve their lust on bark………… Sunset's on another day………… Oh to fall apart, or, fall astray? I'll meet you at the broken gates……… Cos I know we're headed the same old way………….. Heeyyy!!!!!!……. You know we're all headed the same old way………. Mmmm……… but I wanted you to stay……….. ay…. ay….. Wanted you here with me………. But nothing I can say, Could ever change….. your ways…….. I'd be afraid…… if I was you…… if you was me……………… Rose petals on the ground my dear…………. "He loves me"…………… She say "He loves me not"………………… Dead flowers by a lamppost fading near………….. For "Do what thou wilt, shall be the whole of the law"…………….. Mmmm……… but I wanted you to stay……….. ay…. ay….. Wanted you here with me………. But nothing I can say, Could ever change….. your ways…….. I'd be afraid…… if I was you…… if you was me……………… The they clouds burn……… When you're coming down!!………………. And angels cry……….. When you…….. Hit the ground………….. The oceans dry………. With every word you say!!!…… Ayah heyy!!!!!!……… I'm running alone and I'll be gone for today…………. Sunset's on another day………… Oh to fall apart, or, fall astray? I'll meet you at the broken gates……… Cos I know we're headed the same old way………….. Heeyyy!!!!!!……. You know we're all headed the same old way………. You know we're all headed the same old way………. You know we're all headed the same old way………... You know we're all headed the same old way…………….. You know we're all headed the same old way…………………….. Yeah we are, we are, we are.................... Ahhh ahhh…………. And we’re all, we all, we all!........... We are!!........... We are, we are, we are!!!............. We are!.............. We are!!!................ Hey……….. We’re all headed the same old……….. [Same old!!.............] 
Way!!!!..........

Hmmm……… want you to go……… Instrumental Solo: Acoustic Guitar Fingerpicking Solo + Clean Electric Lick Been so long………… Since you dare to show your face here……….. On I'm on one……….. and you put me on, Come help me fight my fears?
