about

This song came about shortly after moving into the house in Footscary, Melbourne. I was finding it really hard to find a job and money was becoming tight. I eventually managed to find work in a fine dining restaurant in town which was great and about when my time in Australia got interesting.

lyrics

Simplified my mantra to 'just find some work, anywhere here'. If I wanna eat I've got to earn it, this I know, I know.
Decimated fall back plans reveal useless hands. Enormous things live in the mind of the tested and tired, but the weary aren't so wise.
These are my animal works, distractions for the search. Lack of concentration-effect rehabilitation this and more, this and more. It's not always on my mind but I think about it all sometimes, this I know, I know.
