Can't reach the moon now
Can't turn the tide
The world looked different
When God was on your side
Who builds the future?
Do they care why?
I know you're tired of trying
Listen clearly, you don't have to try
Capricorn
The year that you were born
Finished fast
And the next one wasn't yours
Too old for dying young
Too young to live alone
Sifting through centuries
For moments of your own
Alone and wounded
But in my prime
I called the hospital
They didn't have the time
I'd seen it coming
It's no surprise
I know you're tired of trying
Listen clearly
You don't have to try
Capricorn
The year that you were born
Finished fast
And the next one wasn't yours
Too old for dying young
Too young to live alone
Sifting through centuries
For moments of your own
A hundred dollars
On someone's dime
I looked for answers there
They weren't mine to find
Good days are coming
Not just to die
I know you're tired of trying
Listen, baby
You don't have to try

Somehow takes me to a travelling carnival house of mirrors.
Normally I skip this band, but this song has kept me listening.
This band is why I listen to Radioparadise. Appreciate the unbelievable variety for nearly 20 years. Been listening since almost day one. No pretentious comment that are so unfortunately prevalent. Just thankful.
Going to give it a few more listens before submitting a rating but I quite enjoyed the piano break on first listen.
I don't think this is their best work but it's not awful either. I give it a 6.
These guys leave me absolutely stone cold, I'm afraid.

This is odd.
