Acoustic Rock music
At the moment the band is me on vocals, guitars, bass, keyboards, drums and harmonica......
Story behind the song
Yet another Guitarnoise SSG-inspired song....
Lyrics
I take a thirty minute train ride every morning,
The same familiar routine every day,
I read the Mirror always starting at the sports page,
Just to kill a little time along the way,
I see the same familiar faces every morning,
Reading something that they've picked up at the station,
Or headphones on and listening to their music,
What happened to the art of conversation?
Always sideways glances no direct looks,
No one wants to catch another's eye,
Direct contact is to be avoided,
I can't believe that everybody's shy,
So we pass the time in silence,
Punctuated by a random cough,
Until the penultimate station,
Then everybody's keen to be first off,
The same mad daily dash across the footbridge,
To be first in line at the bus queue,
Everybody wants to nab the best seats,
be quick or it's standing room for you....
I take a fifteen minute bus ride every morning,
To the office where I make my daily bread,
No one says a word no cheery gretings,
The art of conversation must be dead,
Yes the art of conversation must be dead.....
