about

The song is a commentary on toxic content that misleads people into pursuing superficial goals and shaping their lives according to a manufactured, exaggerated narrative that leaves little room for imperfection. It addresses the challenge of trying not to be fooled by unrealistic expectations and false advertising claims. Toby Whyle created an honest and captivating post-punk-inspired song, propelled by the raw energy of driving chorus guitars and powerful vocals.

lyrics

If all we needed was a lovely walk in the park
If all we needed was a perfect lawn in the yard
And all our plans had been decided on in the past
I’d say fair enough, that’s not really us
No that’s not really us

Would I be here?
If I didn’t wanna run the risk again
Would you be here?
If you didn’t wanna run the risk again

If all we wanted were the rising lines on the chart
If all we wanted was the goal but never the start
Our lives would read like the back of every summer’s post card
Kind of dull, always alight and never dark,
But that’s not us

Would I be here?
If I didn’t wanna run the risk again
Would you be here?
If you didn’t wanna run the risk again
Would I be here?
If I didn’t wanna run the risk again
Would you be here?
If you didn’t wanna run the risk again

No that’s not us…

Would I be here?
If I didn’t wanna run the risk again
Would you be here?
If you didn’t wanna run the risk again
