about

What Is Going On?’ is about self-empowerment. It centres around the realisation that another person’s questions and attacks on you as to why you behave or don’t behave a certain way can be used to cover their own insecurities.”

lyrics

When I got out of bed the other day I had a very strange feeling coming my way.
Through the cat door I could just see the empty stare from the night before.
And I thought that maybe there are some things I should never fucking change in my life. Bringing me around to say what is going on?

Doubt springs to mind.
A wry smile and an air of confidence.
Said you opened doors.
Closed minds are all I saw.
Steam in with the will to fight.
You can rain on my parade tonight.
I tuned out long ago.
So why are you still going on?

And I know it’s unfair.
Laze around all day in your underwear.
It’s like buying steak knives when you’ve never cooked a day in your life.
Oh and on it goes.
Take time to hold that pose.
In light of fear don’t cry.
Just stab me in the back. That’s fine.

Doubt springs to mind.
A wry smile and an air of confidence.
Said you opened doors.
Closed minds are all I saw.
Steam in with the will to fight.
You can rain on my parade tonight.
I tuned out long ago.
So why are you still going on?

What’s going on?
What’s going on?

Dine on my friends.
They don’t mind at all.
It shouldn’t hurt.
So what if it does?
You don’t run when it feels right.
It’s down to me.
You don’t run when it feels right.

What is going on?
What? What’s going on?

It’s time in your life.
It’s taking all the drives in your car.
Won’t you give me some more time in your life?
It’s taking all the drives in your car.
Won’t you give me some more time?
