about

“Disenchanted” was written in 2017 and recorded in the years that followed, bit by bit. The song was mildly released on my Wilfred Kozub Soundcloud a few years ago. The version that will be appearing on the new album (2022) titled “Impossible World” will be a new mix of the song with a few small changes here and there.
Things in life are alright, but they don’t seem as good as they used to be. The seasons drift one unto the other, and what I have seen is changes that, overall, are not for the better. General malaise. Am I right?

lyrics

I only live for the summer
I only live for the summer

For the summer
I only live

Gone gone gone, the summer is gone
Gone gone gone, the summer is gone
Gone gone gone, yeah the summer is gone
Gone . . . summer’s gone

Gone for the summer
Maybe forever

I’m disenchanted with the haze in the sky
I’m disenchanted with the waters that rise
I’m disenchanted with the cold cold cold of the winter

I’m disenchanted with the fires that blaze
I’m disenchanted with the cities that crumble
I’m disenchanted with the world world world malaise
. . . malaise . . . malaise . . . malaise . . .

I don’t I don’t wanna fight no more
I don’t I don’t wanna fight no more
I don’t wanna be the one who’s sore
I don’t wanna fight no more

My bones my bones and my muscles are sore
My tones my tones and my knuckles are torn
I don’t need to even up the score
Don’t wanna fight no more

General malaise . . . general malaise

I’m disenchanted disenchanted
I’m disenchanted I’m disenchanted
I’m disenchanted I’m disenchanted

I’m disenchanted disenchanted
I’m disenchanted disenchanted
I’m disenchanted I’m disenchanted
