about
'Never Been Told' tells the story of how we are never taught certain skills in life, how we can be lead down difficult paths, bringing a cycle of learning,understanding and sometimes destructive behaviours. The trials and tribulations we go through, bring certain gifts and rewards.
lyrics
I never happened upon it
It really upon me
The moment that I tried to bundle it
Into equations for my reach
Light in the air
My out breath leads me down the stairs
Hard to behold
This meditation leaves me whole
I’m given hints, reminders
Remember what I can be
To face the present solemn state
Away from cogs of the machine
Light in the air
My out breath leads me down the stairs
Hard to behold
This meditation leaves me whole
Chorus
You’re dishing out the dirt
Forgetting who you are
You’re worth your wait in gold
You just never been told
Don’t let them steal away
Are you happy in the glades
You can see the open plains
You just never been told
We can keep passing the buck around
Accept what’s on our plate
Clear out the dirt and clutter
An open brighter stage
Light in the air
My out breath leads me down the stairs
Hard to behold
This meditation leaves me whole
Chorus
You’re dishing out the dirt
Forgetting who you are
You’re worth your wait in gold
You just never been told
Don’t let them steal away
Are you happy in the glades
You can see the open plains
Well you just never been told
You’re dishing out the dirt
Forgetting who you are
You’re worth your wait in gold
You just never been told
Don’t let them steal away
Are you happy in the glades
You can see the open plains
You just never been told
