Rollin' was recorded between 2015-2018 by Glenn Hopper in various bedrooms between The Blue Mountains and Sydney's Inner West.

It is the first track from Skinny Legions' debut album 'Worlds, Worlds, & Other Worlds', and will be featured in full on that album.

lyrics

Lyrics:

I once believed to change the world
I need only change myself.
All I could see there before me was malleable, to be felt.
But now I’ve seen those ripples reflecting the daring light of the sun.
And I can’t see those dotted lines
connecting everyone.

Rollin’ on, rollin’ on
like a Californian dream.
Rollin’ on like a
wave in the sea.
Rollin’ on, rollin’ on
like the colours that you made.
Rollin’ on like the
wind in our sails.

I once believed to save the world
I need only save myself.
All I perceived there before me
was yearning, to be held.
But now I’ve tried to sympathise
I’m lying low and tired.
I need that from you which I gave to you.
Don’t leave me undesired.

Rollin’ on, rollin’ on
like a Californian dream.
Rollin’ on like a
wave in the sea.
Rollin’ on, rollin’ on
like the colours that you made.
Rollin’ on like the
wind in our sails.
