Landslide 01:52
lyrics
buy track
By the skin of your teeth, did you survive another day Steering blankly at the screen or out of a window at the world burning Did you momentarily wish you would forget to breathe Under the pressure of absolutely everything! Why are we expected to cope With all of these sticks and stones Coming at us like a landslide Well your guess is as good as mine. Territory, pissing games and egos violent like a nuclear display Insignificance defined by the human body and mind When did we just become products left on a shelf Left to rot and fade away, knowing we're good for nothing else

All You're Getting 01:58

I woke up and my head spun out just like an earthquake So I went to the doctor, who just chucked me a bottle of pills I took them all as prescribed, but i still felt violently ill So i went back and asked for help! And this is what they said Sit down, Shut up Just take your antidepressants Heads down, arse up so we can fuck you over again and again until you get That this is all you're getting Next thing I found my self with a therapist just letting him know I've got no interest in living life anymore he said "have you just tried faking it with a smile?" I said "man what you think I've been doing for all this time" This is what he said!

I'd Be Good At This If I Wasn't So Shit! 02:00
lyrics

Sleeps a luxury that I can not afford Deaths a poor mans doctor so I'll wait by his door Because good mental health will cost me an arm and a leg or maybe I'd be good at this if I just weren't so shit Well I would be good at this if I wasn't so shit Bleed me, breed me we're all just cattle after all And everyone is special is just a nicer way to say no-one is at all Because good mental health will cost you and arm and a leg Or maybe you'd be good at this if you just weren't so shit Sleeps a luxury that I can not afford Deaths a poor mans doctor so I'll wait by his door

I saw the children covered in blood, from the last God we sacrificed So sky's would be blue and everything would be nice! As we were tired of asking for a way to ascend that had to easier and cheaper than taking a shit with laxatives' Because we're only as good as what we eat And we're all good people I caught a glimpse of God, she was strung up by the chandelier Bleeding from a wound where honey bees were found nesting in And my eyes could not believe as i reached and grabbed a piece then exclaimed that she tasted... Just like fucking heaven to me! We're only as good as what we eat

Better Than Me 03:13
lyrics

So you want to knock some sense into me You'll have to hit me harder than my daddy So you want to tear down small poppies Whatever gets you up Whatever helps you sleep Someone get that man a medal Because he thinks that he is better than me Someone get that man a medal Inscribe it with well that's not very hard to be Better than me So you want to choke out, little ole me I'll let it happen, you know how to excite me And so you want to shit down on everybody Man whatever gets you up Whatever helps you sleep So you think you're better than me, holding the gate with small dick energy, got to have ya say, got to have your way, cant have a difference of opinion aye? well you insufferable pretentious arrogant prick, throwing your weight like a pig in heat, look nobody cares and its means less than nothing that you are thinking you're better than me

I'm A Disappointment 02:03
lyrics

Fuck me did I try to hard again did I give away to much or not enough And stupid me being so damn naïve to think we could think with our heads along with our hearts Well I could have been anyone but I went and chose to be myself And I'm a disappointment Fuck this I guess we're all going off to mars I took that line from Freddy Fudd Pucker, you should check him out And fuck dignity that's a proud mans fantasy I know I'm the monkey in the cage, do you like how I dance?

Death & Taxes 01:58
lyrics
buy track
Jacks all work and no play He takes laxatives' for his brain to keep him pacified, dull and uninteresting I've tried to do the same Keep up with the game But it's all routine And so very boring Alarm bells ring, repetitive and dull The message that they bring is all so very painfully clear Because It's all death and taxes, I'm taxed for breathing and now I'm waiting on my death Which is running late to the party It's all death and taxes I'm taxed for breathing and now I'm waiting on my death I'm waiting on my death!!

Good For? 01:58
lyrics
buy track
Out of the fryer and into the fire, tell me are we having fun Bite your lip and hold your tongue, don't let it slip that your feeling numb Because you were born with a gun in your mouth And now you're trying to scream out for help But when you got a gun in your mouth You know you can only speak in vowels Because I've been down on all fours Just trying to prove to them, there's still something that I'm good for! What am I good for? It is what it is, at the end of the day these things they go mindlessly say From one to ten how are you feeling? Like no ones even listening Because there ain't no devil only god when he's drunk And that guy's been pissed since day one There ain't no god just men who act like such No wonder we are all completely fucked Out of the fryer and into the fire, tell me are we having fun

Nighty Night 02:28
lyrics

Nighty Night to the poor and working class who've been divided by invisible lines, drawn out by faceless vampires Nighty Night to the discriminated no longer will you have to cry, as together an equal platform will rise And nighty night to the lost and broken Who have been weighed down by such dismay and trauma we've all got to face So nighty night I want to say nighty night to this endless shit fight Nighty night to the suffering child who dreams someday he might wake, and not feel like a meaningless mistake

Happy 02:21
lyrics
buy track
I got up this morning to paint silver linings in your clouds Then buttered your bread with cigarettes' and ash to remove my taste out of your mouth Now if you walk by the river long enough, you'll find civilization but I've been walking for awhile now and I'm by the ocean So hey you, get off of your behind And try, and try, and try make everyone smile But you will probably die Before you can go, make everyone happy You took the crutches and the wheelchair and still complained you weren't getting anywhere Well you're a Christ without a cross, trying to crucify your self, you've made being pathetic a career All your jokes are in bad taste but it's to show us where we're heading So tell me what's so funny about love, peace and understanding

Manic Depressive 01:08
lyrics
buy track
I'm a T-Rex finger painting Cracking my back and breaking my bones But if this don't work out I'll kill myself nothing gained then nothing loss And I'll be gone With my smile as painted on as my mother said my ears are! So I woke up with blood between my legs I'd miscarried with the devils kid From one to ten how are you feeling not a ten yet because I'm still breathing

about

I'm Not Angry, Just Disappointed was written during lockdown in NZ, a time of chaos due to frustration, fear, anger and a whole lot of fuckery.

During this time I fell into a bliss state of being, where I could write all the time. I had no reason to interact with the world, I could be alone and I felt good alone. This album made me realise that going solo wasn't as scary as I've always felt it would be, and didn't mean I had to do everything alone.

Thank you to Benny, Pete, David, Sammy, Shayne, Fred and Paige for being amazing friends and supporting me, and making this album happen with your own skills and talents.
