lyrics

An open key keeps shutting doors
It's all correct but is it all accounted for
Old Kinder-hook got off Scot-free
He spoke a language we all speak.

But is just enough enough to justify?

We're swimming in the sea but we're still sticking close to the shore
A little scared of when we get too deep and our feet won't touch the floor
This is a media critique of mediocrity, but hand on heart I can't say it might not be.

Sheer Hypocrisy.

about

TheReleaseCandidate Sheffield, UK

TheReleaseCandidate is more commonly known as Paul Howe. Paul likes interlocking intricate acoustic math-pop and harmonies aplenty, so had a go at doing just that. He has a short attention span. His songs reflect this.
