Lyrics: I’ve been here before in movies from my childhood But what happens next is on me… I’ll flesh out the details though I’m not a great director I give up at intros Just a bustling score with no dialogue Now the final page is empty I’ll try my best at a hero’s ending I paint with brushstrokes as wide as my forearm A subtle proposal like a love that’s shaped with Rose petals in a four-star penthouse I’m on the nose with no sense of irony But people would miss me Blessed with a brain and equal parts feeling Cursed some would say and I don’t think I’d argue Events of life unfold like they’re on camera A blockbuster flop, a C-grade plot But people would miss me Except this is not fiction This living contradiction It’s as real as it gets and I’m dead set on giving up Ever since I was a child I was told that I was different That I was a cut above But that did nothing to stop me from falling down Written in scribbles on parchment and stone The cliché of boyhood millennia old Except for some trivia, we’re all the same We’re not immune from the dark rain Now the final page is empty I’ll try my best at a hero’s ending Not all heroes wear capes Memes got one thing right Take a picture, it’ll last longer If indeed it lasts at all Solo: Skene Don’t call it quits, don’t call it It’s not like it’s empty It’s filled with plenty It’s as real as it gets and I’m dead set on giving up Now the final page is empty I’ll try my best at a hero’s ending Not all heroes wear capes Memes got one thing right Take a picture, it’ll last longer We live and die by the hands of men like ourselves But I can’t I won’t reduce my life to a sentence on a post-it note CREDITS Hemina is: Douglas Skene - Vocals, Guitar, Keyboards Mitch Coull - Guitar, Vocals Jessica Martin - Bass, Vocals Nathan McMahon - Drums, Vocals Produced by Douglas Skene at Ploughman Studios Mixed by Douglas Skene at Ploughman Studios Mastered by Ermin Hamidovic at Systematic Productions Lyrics by Douglas Skene and Jessica Martin Music Performed by Hemina Drums Recorded at Macarthur Academy of Music Drum Engineering by Nathan McMahon and Reece Denton Additional Vocals by Phill Eltakchi Hammond Organ by David Eaton Filmed by Tim Neill Edited and Produced by Mitch Coull
