about

Rock 'n Roll Taoism!
This is one of Oliver’s songs we decided to release as a single in April 2017.

lyrics

Already There

taking a short cut, you’re straying from the path
closing your fist it slips from your grasp
moving from the center you’re winding up a spring
running from a fight you’re getting in the ring

you’re already there
you’re already there
take a look around you, baby you’re already there

try to make it better, you’re making it worse
you think it’s a blessing but it’s really a curse
try to save your soul, there’s nothing to save
you’re working so hard just digging your grave

you’re already there

If you could sit still for a minute or 2
you’d have all kinds of shit fuckin going for you
but you’re running around like a chicken with your head cut off

People try to tell you what it’s all baout
but they’re so full of shit it’s coming out their mouth
just empty your mind and let it all wash away

you can run around all over the place
but all that effort’s just going to waste
try to get ahead, you’re digging a hole
every step takes you further from the goal

you’re already there
