Danish singer/songwriter, looking for the right song.
I'm a 26-year old university student from Denmark who likes to play about with my own songs using a Roland VS-880 and my computer. I also sing in a U2-coverband called Elevation.

Story behind the song
This is a collaboration with Phil Nice, who wrote the lyrics and I added the music and the voice.
Lyrics
One town’s just like another When you’re only passing through The streets blend into each other The people slowly fade from view You’ve been around for a long time now Through all the ebb and flow And you don’t feel the cold any more Rules of the road The river’s white noise in the background Mountains blot out the sun Food recharges the batteries And alcohol substitutes fun You laugh, you cry, you suffer But it’s really just for show There’s no real blood in your veins anymore Rules of the road You almost long for dramas and collisions The jealousies of old When you couldn’t tell the silk from the sackcloth The gravel from the gold When you struggled for a living And lived to struggle on The road was leading upwards And boy, that road was long One town’s as good as another When you don’t belong You´re everybody´s oldest friend Till the morning comes and you´re gone You’re the merry, drunken uncle You’re the child without a home You’re the ghost of Christmas future Rules of the road
