How do you expect us to carry on
To live our lives, doing us wrong
What is it that you expect from us
Why do you always expect too much?
I don’t understand anymore
What’s the point and it all for?
When you sail on in the breeze
Away from us in case we sneeze
(Chorus)
So now we play dead in desperation
As you continue with your emancipation
Pushing and pulling until we break
Why do you have so much hate?
No fight left in us now
We simply wouldn’t know anymore how
For you’ve bullied us into submission
And lost sight have we of our vision
As the sinking sun sets tonight
A little child does cry
For she’s hungry but not just for food
You have no idea, no real clue
(Chorus)
So now we play dead in desperation
As you continue with your emancipation
Pushing and pulling until we break
Why do you have so much hate?

I'm a thinker, listener, a "question's pretty much everything" type of person. A seeker of knowledge, always restless, yet seeks the calm in life.
I love writing in all forms and am in the process of completing a number of ongoing projects. I love the craft of writing and the possibilities it holds. A magic carpet through the mind. I love pretty much all creative arts, music, film and theatre the leading ones.
Born in Hertfordshire in England, my family Irish, Welsh and English, I currently reside in Edinburgh, in Scotland. I'm drawn to coastal and mountain regions where I like to go to think and draw inspiration from. Ireland is a place that's dear to me, and I try to get back to see family and friends as much as possible.
My interests are wide and broad, too many to mention here, but history, archaeology, criminology, music and film are just some of those things I love.
I hope you enjoy my ramblings on here as that's what they are really. I'll let my fingers do the ''talking...''
