lyrics

Stuck around for another year
To watch more backbones disappear
Went to the basement and slept it off
Woke up in Spring with a brand new cough
Called from an unknown number and said
No point waiting till the sky turns red
Not when you know where you have to be
“Heaven’s not an option for people like you and me.”

Now I’m digging holes again
On the road with no end
Losing patience with old friends
On the road with no end

Not sure exactly where I buried that memory
That field, that rock, the sky, you and me
Early attempts at optimism
And vivid recollections of time spent with my mum
At an AA meeting at the age of eight years old
Not understanding what I was being told
By shells of strangers doing their very best to start again
Echoes translated by fear have had their day around here

I’m digging holes again
On the road with no end
Counting every second I spend
On the road with no end
All this unresolved hurt lies dormant in the dirt
This year will be its to take if it’s not shaken awake
So I’m digging holes again
On the road with no end.

Wrong Life Edinburgh, UK

I'm Fraser. I play music under the name Wrong Life. I tried fooling people into thinking it was a proper full band with a somewhat steady line-up but it didn't work, so here we are.

"... somewhere in between heartfelt, life-affirming contemporary pop-punk and smart indie-rock of the ‘90s and early ‘00s." - Keep Track of the Time

"Emo-ish punky bullshit." - me
