about

"This one began with the floor stomp & handclap beat. It's an ode to a favourite retreat, where I pretend the real world is just a distant dream."

lyrics

FAST AS I COULD

Every day
We keep our enemies close
But our enemies know
We can't deny
We're only human

So we gather our minds
Then smash the clocks
To stop the time
Now over sleeping
All deadlines

I got here fast as I could
I got here fast as I should

In the quicksand
From the crash land
This could be the place
Where we find out
We're strong enough
For the real stuff
Yet I'm thinking
Can I hack it?

Oh no
Missed the show
Nothing left to say
Let it all go this time
Nothing I can do
Let the world float on by
Float on by, float on by, float on by

I got here fast as I could

On the riverbank
With escape plans
That could be the judge
Of whether I
Am good enough?
For the real stuff

In the end though would you back it?
When the doubts say can I hack it?
'Cos there's nothing
I am lacking

Oh no
Missed the show
Nothing left to lose
On my own I'll survive
Nothing left to do
Let it all go this time
Nothing left to prove
Let the world float on by

I got here fast as I could

Float on by
