Are you sure we're better off alone? 'cause I can barely breathe without you now I left you crying with no where to go Now I need you like nothing I've ever known Why did it take a whole lifetime for me to see That wouldn't grow up easily? Better face these demons on my own Before these old flames cause more sorrow On my own On my own On my own On my own I'm miserable without you now I can barely live with myself If I can't keep you like a gentleman should Tonight I'll burn this whole place down Seems I should keep my mouth shut Cause I hurt everything when I open up Better face this mountain on my own Before these rocks and stones leave us broken On my own On my own On my own On my own Space and time crawl around us Oh grace and lifetimes or circling reveal and tell I better face myself Alone Alone On My Own On My Own On My Own

I hit the cinema's last night Before I poured myself a drink I bid the bella love good night And now I can't sleep. I 'm gonna have myself a fun time cause as far as I can see I'm chilin' with gelignite I could go off at anything And we could do it at yours or mine Just follow your gut instinct yeah we could do it at yours or mine I don't care what they think I don't care what they think I don't care what they think I don't care what they think I don't care what they think It feels like election year I hate this choose left or right. RIght or wrong I couldn't be bothered to decide We'd rather hit play on love songs by candle light and fall asleep in a heap by the fireside And we could do it at yours or mine Just follow your gut instinct yeah we could do it at yours or mine I don't care what they think I don't care what they think I don't care what they think I don't care what they think I don't care what they think I hold you like a promise if you really want me to be honest And we could do it at yours or mine Just follow your gut instinct yeah we could do it at yours or mine I don't care what they think I don't care what they think I don't care what they think I don't care what they think I don't care what they think

Now you see me. Now you don't. We used to move in the same circles but now you don't come close Once you believe me. Now you don't The writings on the wall with one tiny thought Go on, if you want. No I'm not gone completely. I more like a ghost. I used to run but now I can't so I won't You talk about me like I'm not moving on. Like I'm some junky trying to get somewhere close You can go. If you want But I'm not gonna run after you You can go. If you want But I'm not gonna run after you Tried to deceive me. Get in my head My heads already broken. My hearts already dead I've been abandoned by my senses. I don't know where this is. I've never felt like I should cease and desist. Yeah I might smoke too much I might drink too much Drink to my veins are alcohol, until my lungs are toast But now I can't feel a thing comfortable comatose, comfortable comatose You can go. If you want But I'm not gonna run after you You can go. If you want But I'm not gonna run after you Now you see me. Now you don't. We used to move in the same circles but now you don't come close Once you believe me. Now you don't The writings on the wall with one tiny thought Go on, if you want.

You cover me with Love and kisses I wouldn't miss this if someone gave me the world It would never be enough girl Oh you're so user friendly like a nuclear family dissolving my ego I'll be drinking from your loveliness 'til I fill up my cup. I think I've finally worked it out You want me as me So share and make more moments with me my lady Some call me crazy but I call it as I see And its something I need I think I've finally worked it out I don't need to be anyone else I think I've finally worked it out You want me as me We've had some good times so far makin out in your car You called for me release and to my humble relief Oh you waited for me I think I've finally worked it out I don't need to be anyone else I think I've finally worked it out You want me as me

A good love gone bad A greater love had no man You played the good cop I played the bad This is getting exhausting And the worst thing You never really cared for what you had Oh oh oh Oh oh oh I can't complain if I feel no pain least of all the suffering when it's raining So let it all come down like a universal clown do we only sit around the we're laughing? Ha ha ha Are we laughing? Ha ha ha Are we laughing? We would only play around for fun. Now it feels like the funs done hon done. Done. Do do do do A good love gone bad A greater love had no man You played the good cop I played the bad Oh oh oh Oh oh oh

about

“Jason Kerrison seems to not only to have performed this music, but he has inhaled it in spirit and substance. Up until today, I was completely ignorant of anything Jason Kerrison had done before. So I came to this track, free from anything other than a desire to not waste my time. I wasn’t disappointed. The music is absolutely beautiful, the lyrics are well-written, and the song hasn’t left my speakers in several days. That’s rare for me!”
— Rick Jamm, Jamsphere - The Independent Music Magazine

“Kerrison has a strong, earthy voice that manages to be commercial without being generic, and the same thing could be said about the whole song, which has been produced to perfection. Though it is a solo release, there is some accomplished musicianship backing him up, and the overall sound is not too dissimilar to one of New Zealand’s finest exports, Crowded House. (7.8 out of 10)”
— Alex Faulkner, THE FAULKNER REVIEW

“..a terrific big production release which rings with sonic sheen and sincerity. *****”
— Russell Baillie, NZ Herald

"Kerrison is slow to categorise himself and appears open to suggestions. He finds an idea and floats it, unwilling to let it define him"
— MICHELLE ROBINSON, Sunday Star Times
