lyrics

In my head, in my head
It is barely making sense
Through all the damn conviction
I'm just sitting on the fence
So to the mountain I must go
To seek whatever I could know
A deep ravine of good intention
Is all that I am shown

I try to learn, I try to fight
Pick up a language overnight
Solve a mass extinction problem
And dismiss it out of spite
Cos I'm no titan, no messiah
Just another worker bee
The burden of this knowledge
Heavy weather over me

I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic to the core
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic to the core

So that won't do, I start anew
To try and satiate my blues
Given time, peace of mind
Work on being satisfied
Review my matches on these apps
My dignity is near collapse
My intention for connection
Has entirely relapsed

I bite your flesh under duress
I cannot save this awkward mess
I despair this sweaty matrimony
Getting you undressed
This heady state, this fever dream
Radiates from you in sleep
My bed insomnia initiates
I think I'm in too deep

I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic to the core
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic to the core

I'm at a loss, don't know what's next
I've tried success and I've tried sex
To feel complete, but try I might
I doubt that it will see me right
Cos I'm no titan, no messiah
Just another worker bee
Through addiction, pride, and envy
Heavy weather over me

I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic to the core
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic to the core
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic to the core
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic
I'm a skeptic to the core

Matt Hartless & the Maverick 7 Manchester, UK

Many moons ago, Matt Hartless rode into town from across the Sea on horseback with nothing but a guitar and a song in his heart.

Selling an aquatic horse would have made life easier, but that's not the Maverick way and Matt soon found himself recruiting troubadours from across Manchester to give the gift of Gypsy-ska-flamenco-folk-punk-rock to the world.
