The Tide of My Voice

The Tide Of My Voice ( aka F**k Convention )


the tide of change is turning
the voice of doom is lurking
and all I wanna do is believe in myself
is that too much to ask?

see I don't believe in convention
I've never given it a toss
don't believe in stereotypes
just the idea gives me gut-rot
so my mold is different to yours
but that doesn't mean it's wrong
doesn't mean the production line f**ked-up
just means you don't understand my song
and if you don't understand the tide of my voice
coz I don't politicize doom and gloom
maybe you should try sailing a little closer
see the view from a different room

so I've fallen in love with ink and paper
I've fallen in love with a voice
I've fallen in love with a romantic notion
but shouldn't that be my choice
yeah the voice of change is lurking
the tide of doom is churning
and all I wanna do is be myself
but sometimes that's too much to ask

my mind screams f**k convention
and that doesn't fit in your verse
and I downright refuse to be stereotyped
so my wear frequently comes off worst
yes my song-sheet is different to yours
and you think my riffs are f**ked-up
but that doesn't mean I'm always wrong
or that the production line f**ked-up
so if you don't understand the float of my boat
the tide of my voice, the point of my verse
maybe you should try sailing in different waters
where the bubble of convention can burst

so I've fallen in love with ink and paper
I've fallen in love with a voice
I've fallen in love with a romantic notion
but shouldn't that be my choice
yeah the tide of change is turning
the voice of doom is lurking
and all I wanna do is believe in myself
is that too much to ask?
