Story behind the song

A song about how certainties can be shattered, and how people you love can turn on you.

Lyrics

OBVIOUS (Hodgson)

You can't make it on your own
There's no way you win alone
All the years that we have grown
It's so obvious

And I can see the other side
There's no place to hide

You believe the boys in blue
As they lie and snide and groom
If they came into the room
I would kill them now

And it's your choice to make
The vows you can unbreak 

Later you will find
You can change your mind
Leave the past behind
We can save it

You can't make it on your own
There's no way you win alone
All the years that we have grown
It's so obvious

And later you will find
That you can change your mind

You believe the boys in blue
As they lie and snide and groom
If they came into the room
I would kill them now

And I'll make it crystal clear
I do not walk in fear

I'll leave the past behind
There's no way you will find
Peace of mind
