Big bad world
Maybe I'm wrong or maybe I'm right Maybe it's just to late but this is keeping me awake all night Maybe say yes or maybe say no Maybe I'm just to shy to admit that it's time to go
We go out on our own it's a big bad world outside carrying our dreams and all that they mean trying to make it all worthwhile
Maybe believe or maybe don't care Sure maybe there is no God up in the big white clouds up there Maybe live long or maybe die young Maybe live everyday like it's your last day under the sun
We go out on our own it's a big bad world outside carrying our dreams and all that they mean trying to make it all worthwhile
we go out on our own it's a big bad world outside carrying our dreams and all that they mean trying to make it all feel right

All I want is nothing more Then to hear you knocking at my door Cause if I could see your face once more I could die a happy man I'm sure When you said your last goodbye I died a little bit inside I lay in tears in bad all night Alone without you by my side
But if you loved me, why'd you leave me Take my body, take my body All I want is, and all I need it To find somebody, I'll find somebody like you!
See you brought out the best of me A part of me I've never seen You took my soul and wiped it clean Our love was made for movie screens
But if you loved me, why'd you leave me Take my body, take my body All I want is, and all I need it To find somebody, I'll find somebody like you!

I still hear the sound of that runaway train Roll through my heart as that lovers refrain But I know in my heart we can never go back To the way that we were on that runaway track I see in your soul and I know you were lying to me I loose control, oh, why didn't I know Was I just to you? But why do I feel so old? Cause I'm still so yound!
Yeah but it all comes down to What it all comes down to It all comes down to Yeah it all comes down to It all comes down to it all comes down to you
If you see it, why couldn't you do it And you're so alone tonight And it's heartbreaking the road you choosing God wouldn't save you Love is a battle, and everybody cries
Yeah but it all comes down to What it all comes down to It all comes down to Yeah it all comes down to It all comes down to it all comes down to you
Of all the people in my heart You where the vision in my soul And I feel so alone Like I'm loosing control Am I just too young? Cause why do I feel so old? Cause I'm still so young!
But it all comes down to, what if all comes down to It all comes down to, yeah it all comes down to It all comes down to, it all comes down to you All comes down to you
But I all comes down to, what it all comes down to It all comes down to, yeah it all comes down to you
It all comes down to you

People keep talking, but I can't hear a word they say Life just keeps moving, the world gets stranger everyday Yeah, time is on your side, that's what people tell you But I got to let you go
My head is saying that this is for the better I just want you to know I can't hold on forever when all I wanna do is let go All I wanna do is let go
Sirens are screaming, but I can't hear a single sound And I'm feeling uneasy So I wait and I wait for the change to come around
I get the feeling that this is for the better I just want you to know I can't hold on forever When all I wanna do is let go All I wanna do is let go
Are you searching for an answer Or just peace of mind When your life has lost it's meaning Maybe you need a little time Are you searching for an answer Or just peace of mind When your life has lost it's meaning Maybe you need a little time

Steve:
Hey, we're Kodaline and this is our track by track. Mark:
'Way back when'. I wrote 'way back when' when I was sitting in our
back garden one day and the whole idea for the song just came to me
so I went in and recorded it and it took us 4 minutes to recorded a
demo version and I kinda forgot about it. I came back two days and
showed the guys and it's quite like a country book. It's different
then what we usually do. We all liked the song so much. It was one of
the last songs that we recorded and we, instead of really going into
the room we just wanted to make a really good atmosphere in the album
so we all got a drum each and Cliff, our producer. And we all just
kinda, we all just bashed, attacked the drums. Steve:
we had like, I think there's a video just out of the hands of a
photographer. There's just four of us all playing drums and we just
banging then and just.. It was a lot of fun, but the song itself is a
lot of fun. Mark:
yeah, cause we were kinda growing up. Steve:
It reminds me of grow up. When we kinda, we grew up together so it's
easy to write about. It's kinda the freedom you have when you're a
kid. Mark:
It kinda touched everything, it kinda touches all my past
relationships, loosing some one we're close with, it's a nice way to
finish the album. That's what you get when your in school and you're
actually summer off and you're got three months just no worries and
all. Steve:
It's like the last day of school, I mean, when we you're a kid that's
the best day in the world. Mark:
One of our last days of school we went down to the valley. The
valley, it's in between where me and Steve lives and where Vinny
lives and we just jumped in the river. Steve:
in our uniforms. Mark:
yeah, and this river is like terrible. Steve:
I was walking by quite recently and I was like: 'I can't believe we
jumped in that'. We probably got like some disease of something like
that. Mark:
when we came out, it was like four hours. Steve:
because it was the last day of school, we didn't care, we were like..
That's kinda the freedom of your youth. Those will be the days that
I'll be missing.

Steve:
Hey, we're Kodaline and this is our track by track. Mark:
'Pray'. 'Pray' is probably the darkest side of the album. Steve:
it's definably the darkest song on the album. Mark:
I remember Steve showed it to me in my house and he was playing the
acoustic and I was playing the piano. We we just came up with the
music for it. Vinny:
the storm transformed. Mark:
then we went down to Leitrim to record it the same day as brand new
day, which we talked about earlier on and (naar Jay) this is your
favourite song. Jay:
yeah, this is my favourite song. It got lots of energy, it's not dark
for the sake of being dark, that's what I love about it. It just gets
the mood across really well. Steve:
It's brutally honest. Jay:
I don't know, it's got the most energy on the record for me. But
that's just my taste. Mark:
I really like it. It was on our first E.P and every one on the team
just liked the song so much, we didn't wanna just let it go so we
just putted it on the album as well. It fits really well and it's
kinda like it's gonna be part of our set list for quite a long time
because it's just a lot of fun. It's very intense and it's gives you
more energy live then we played in long. Steve:
yeah, the lyrics are self explainable. It's kinda about loosing
somebody. But funny enough it's not about relationships, it's about
loosing somebody and something backs it away, so. It's pretty dark.
It's a cool song to play, it's very honest. Mark:
Pray.

Steve:
Hey, we're Kodaline and this is our track by track. Mark:
'Talk'. 'Talk' is about a relationship that I was, that I want
through. (tegen Steve) how much relationships are on this album? But
about this moment when you break up with some one in like a bad way
but you kinda keep going back to them, you shouldn't. It's incredible
honest, every word is just what I went trough. Everything. Yeah, it
was a weird kind of break up in a weird kind of time.. Steve:
I, I just, I was kind of, this was about a year after when I went
through or just another year. So Mark gone through it and we both
kind of sat at the piano and he was showing it to me and we were
kinda just like: 'lad, I know how you feel' and stuff. The song kinda
came from that. I mean.. It's primarily about Mark's experience but
because I've been through similar it was kinda.. Mark:
Related. Steve:
we kinda helped each other, so. Mark:
we really kinda were in the studio and there was this instument which
we never used before and we were kinda going straight for it and use
it so and all words are in this place called Veil. And the second I
went into that studio I felt in love with this thing and the breaker.
But I absolutely loved it. Steve:
that's the sound of the (doet het geluid na). It's such a great
sound. It was really good. Our man in the studio, a place called veil
studios but he wasn't too happy when we blew up his .. So sorry
Chris, We get you another ... Vinny:
no no, you fixed it! Steve:
Sorry Chris, were not going to get you another ... Mark:
That's talk

Steve:
Hey, we're Kodaline and this is our track by track. Mark:
All comes down to you. Steve:
this, the next song is called 'all comes down to you'. Mark:
It's the oldest song. Steve:
it's the oldest song on the album. Vinny:
an al timer. Steve:
yeah, an al timer. Yeah, right there little fellah. But eum,.. Mark:
this was a song like all I want. Like the first time we played it was
the way it is now. Everything just happened. We were all like:
sometimes you just get that magic in like a room when you play
together, every one is on the same page and it just happens. And that
happened with this song and it's probably my favourite song to play
live because it's just, every one, we really really go for it because
it's such an emotional song. It's a great vocal on it. It's real from
the heart. Steve:
It's also, I remember when we first demo this back to the
relationship. - But I just, pretty much. it's partly about that and
it's partly about kind off what you choose to do and everything. The
chooses that you make, I mean, and what you wanna do in life. It all
comes down to you. I mean, it's really up to you, but I mean, there's
a funny lyric in it. It's 'I still hear the sound of that runaway
train'. Runaway train was.. Mark:
a Tom Petty song. Steve:
It's a Tom Petty song but do you know when you're in a relationship
you have like a song? Called THE song. I'm sure every one has one.
That was the.. That was the song of that relationship. And I hope I
never hear it again. Mark:
But we recorded this in our own country and we wanted a choir on
because it has this huge chorus at the end but instead of a gospel
choir because when you're in a band, it's just a little bit weird. So
we just invited fifteen of our mates down to the studio and we had a
barbecue and lot of beers. Then we went in and recorded the chorus
section at the end. Steve:
we put in stamps and claps. Mark:
We had a really good night, it was kinda like a party and just
recorded the vocal and then we, after we finished that we had a big
session. It was cool. And you can kinda get that. Steve:
it's the big choir we were trying to put on. Mark:
it's quite joyous. It's cool. Vinny:
it's a very powerful song. When it hits the last chorus, it's a great
song. It's good live. Just like Mark's saying. We're putting
everything into it, I figure. Mark:
that's 'all comes down to you'.
