Average Aussie Dad - No One Else To Blame

No one else to blame

by Shane Finney

A sense of unexposure
to a world of mystery.
Blackened now they follow you
so blackened now you'll be.
Your daring me now to forgive you
making sure i do my best.
The trouble and misfortune
lay sprawled upon my chest.

Unintentionally i fall
into a sleep where i'm unknown.
I drift into the aftermath
where my spirit has not grown.
I feel the walls become me
and the air is getting thin.
I must release my anger
and unleash the beast within.

And i hear the thunder
Making music on my mind
And i often wonder
how i became so damn unkind.
I'll never lay in silence
trying to think things through
but my thoughts will always wonder
when will i stop blaming you?

A moment in my madness
and you'll know just how i feel.
Together we could end this
and the final laugh we'll steal.
Now stand upon this mountain
and we'll watch the clouds roll through
The wind and i become one
and now the rain is here for you

And i hear the thunder
making music on my mind.
and i often wonder,
when i became so damn unkind.
I'll never lay in silence,
I'll scream if i do
but my thoughts will always wonder,
and i'll forever be blaming you.

Mirror mirror. One of my all time favourite writes.

Mirror Mirror

by finnmister

Mirror mirror on the wall
how dare you treat me so.
For years now you've deceived me
with the direction i must go.
I wake up in the morning
and i ask you the same old thing.
When will my life get better
when will i grow my own wings.

Mirror mirror on the wall
why do you act so wrong?
I've looked at you for hours
remembering a life long gone.
A premium sideshow act with a
star that never was.
One day i'll turn against you
and i'll give you just because.

Mirror mirror on the wall
I place my hand on you.
Then clench my fist in anger and i
show you someone new.
No more can i look at you
all broken on the floor.
Now i see my broken image
like so many times before.

mirror mirror on the wall
how does blood taste to you?
Can you taste the anger burning
in which my veins it used to?

Mirror mirror on the wall,
I've grown myself some wings...

First Christmas alone

So,  it's my first christina in spending without who I thought would be my life partner.  Just have this sad feeling.  Maybe they will start to get easier but this one,  it hurts.

Life... Is a shit of a thing sometimes

Been a while since I have written a blog.  Maybe it is something I will do more of.  I'm taking a break from music for a while so I think I might start sharing with you,  some of the lyrics i have written over the years.  I do have a few old faves in the mix.  If they do have a song linked,  I'll also try and dig that out too so you can see what context it was used in.  I have played some killer shows with killer musicians in my time.  I just think more isn't the time for me to be getting into something new.  Something old maybe if the opportunity cane about.  I'm currently going through a separation.  Have been for about 10 months now.  I guess it's getting to the critical stage where I need to either sink or swim.  It's my own fault.  I could of prevented this.  This is the first time I have mentioned it in any form of social media.  That's how ashamed i am.  Anyway,  kids are well.  Phoenix starts prep next year,  Addison is in grade one and Jett,  growing into such a man.  Grade 5 next year.  I'm proud of all of them.  Anyway,  I'll dig some lyrics out and stay sharing.  I should probably get some sleep.  Santa comes tomorrow and i have done very excited children to entertain tonight.  Until next time,

You can leave your hat on.
