about

Have you ever had one of those friends that got stuck in the past and just can't move on? This is a song about them. Its a shake of the shoulders and a push in the back to help wake them up and move forward with their lives. Play it to them loud and see if you can wake them out of their negative slumbers.

lyrics

JUSTIFIED

When passions parties have all ended
When fires once burning have grown low
If hopes a friend that doesn’t call you anymore
Then write love letters to yourself

(Chorus)
Fight the fight
Keep back the night
Your doing alright
... You’re Justified

Nobody wants to hear old stories, on repeat
The record really has to change
You cant rely on old past glories, wars you’ve won
The pasts a ghost you just can’t chase

(Chorus)
Make the change
Rearrange
Break out of the cage!
... You’re Justified

Kazoo solo

From wounds you tended and from lessons, that you’ve learnt
You’ll find your Phoenix in the flames
But if you wrap yourself in pity, every night
Your gonna find that you get burnt

(Chorus)
Sort it out!
Scream and shout!
Don’t faff (fuck) about!

C’mon,

Y'gotta fight the fight
Keep back the night
Your doing alright
Your doing alright

You’re Justified...

You’re Justified..

You’re Justified.
