FAWM: "Just a Fraud"

Just a Fraud

Liner Notes

Just a quicky song to get me started. No real meaning to it.

Lyrics

I've been thinking About the future About the state of things to come But I can't see A way forward Can't see through this mental fog

If I could see what you need me to be I would move heaven and earth just to do that for you But I know you can see right through me 'Cause I am just a fraud

Maybe this time I'll be better I'll be stronger, smarter too Maybe this time You could try to Meet me halfway, make it through

If I could see what you need me to be I would move heaven and earth just to do that for you But I know you can see right through me 'Cause I am just a fraud

I've been thinking It's all gone wrong

Love this! Reminds me of Sleater Kinney and is the new anthem for finishing first songs!

Always good to hear some new Helen!

I love the raw energy of the music and the despair and determination of the lyrics. You've really primed your FAWM pump with this!

@innerspear 21h

Wow great job wonderful work!

Good raunch in the guitar tone. A sweet minute and a half of new wave pop. If you don’t see (and therefore haven’t acted on) what the other person needs you to be though, does that make you a fraud?

@celineellis 1d

full of rocking angst and riffage - exactly what i was hoping for!

@steveodell 1d

you are a rocking rocker !

Love the punchy delivery of lyrics riding on the great strum sound. Wonderful use of repetition and accented words to sink the hook.

@beacon 1d

Pure Helen! Love this. So much drive. Keep going!

@val 1d

Punky goodness! Very catchy riffage and hook. Love the thick tone to the guitar. Super fun start to kick this thing off with.

Maybe no meaning intended but I'm hearing a pretty relatable punk song about not really being sure you fit in. Sounds good to me, great way to kick off the month!
