I love Flynn’s emotional progressions , not to mention his great introspections about navigating through life’s ups & downs , I really relate to his yearning for a better life to come 😘
Saw COG play last night and had to revisit this song. It's a crime that they never continued to make music. This was the perfect evolution of COG into a more modern sound and its mindblowing.
Couldn't agree more! Having said that if COG had come back and released more songs like The Middle I'd be loving life but they revisited 2 old songs after and nothing more from either band. Just need something new 👏
LYRICS of the last part of the song: I’ve been making my way to the finish line Like a hurricane racing to arrive I’ve been moving on Got a ticket home And what I leave behind I’ll just let it go I’ve been making my way To the finish line And it drips me on If I’m out of time I’ve been moving on, and I’m coming home Cause I realised what I didn’t know I’ve been making my way TOGETHER WE CAN TRANSCRIBE THE WHOLE SONG!!
LYRICS: (Suggestions appreciated!) Oh well, I always looked ahead rather than behind me I didn't understand nothing ever lasts me But I'm changing the tune and that's given me a new plan I'm back at the start again once upon a time and... I never stopped to look at what it took just to get this far Oh well, I never stopped to look at what it took just to get this far Yes I was walking with an off beat point of view And even Ravi Shankar knows it's true That I have found new life You see it's feeling that a change has come for free Rather like an old friend calling me Yes I have found new life Up and away, up and home Feeling I've arrived Up and away, up and home Wave my past goodbye How (did you get to tomorrow) (did you get there tomorrow) How (did you get to tomorrow) Up and away, up and home Feeling I've arrived Up and away, up and home Wave my past goodbye I never stopped to look at what it took just to get this far Oh well, I never stopped to look at what it took just to get this far I never stopped to look at what it took (just to get this far ) I never stopped to look at what it took (just to get this far ) Oh well, I never stopped to look at what it took just to get this far Oh well, I never stopped to look at what it took (did you get to tomorrow) Oh well, I never stopped to look at what it took (did you get there) Oh well, I never stopped to look at what it took just to get this far (did you get to tomorrow) - Ooh, I've arrived, move on. Wave my past goodbye, so long Ooh, I've arrived Wave my past goodbye... ** background line, can't make it out ** I've been making my way to the finish line Like a hurricane racing to arrive I've been moving on, got a ticket home And what I leave behind, I'll just let it go I've been making my way to the finish line And it trips me up if I'm outta time I've been moving on and I'll do it whole 'Cause I've realised what I didn't know I've been making my way...
First of all... Many thanx for your version / attempt of lyrics. so far it sounds great Im not a native english speaker, so it is probably "bowsheet", but I believe that missing parts could go somehow like this: Yes I was walking without a big (or "peak") point of view (or maybe "a weak point of youth") And even had to change God knows its true These are just suggestions, so It could help.
Seriously that outra makes me cry everytime I hear it! I'll just let it goooooo! An absolute timeless masterpiece. You guys should take a bow, I would love to see this live! Am I greedy? YESSSSS!
Oh well I always looked ahead rather than behind me I didn't understand nothing ever lasts But I'm changing the turn And that's giving me a new plan I'm back at the start again Once upon a time yeah hey I never stopped to look what it took just to get this far Oh I never stopped to look what it took just to get this far .... I don't now but surely we can finish the lyrics together!
in my humble opinion, ‘incredible’ is a massive verbal understatement (unless followed by multiple exclamation marks :) ). what Flynn and Luke, together with Troy here, have been producing across the years-also as C.O.G.-in terms of music, lyrics, sincerity, is-in my world-the top-most league of TOOL. not too many bands or musicians there.
The best thing to come from the break-up of COG! (Haha, I was obviously not happy about that as were all fans) What an incredible song though, reflection is definitely mostly taken for granted. Hindsight is definitely 20/20. Love these guys!
apparently, such beings do exist (nature has proven many times it has a rather skewed sense of humor) and i’m really curious about their reasons for investing the time and effort to express their dislike, even if all it’s taken was a single down-vote click. if one engages enough to let the world know they don’t like, i’d expect the dislike to be quite prominent. but still, in the end ‘de gustibus non disputandum est’…
I'm chomping at the bit for Sat 16th.. My eighth COG gig.. "I'm drifting.. around.. knowing.. And I drifted around knowing..... ... that we are all going to die".. The rhythm in the riddle puts the pedal to the medal its the middle of the puzzle The middle of the puzzle put the pedal to the metal it's the rhythm in the riddle The rhythm in the riddle put the pedal to the medal it's the middle of the puzzle The middle of the puzzle put the pedal to the metal is the rhythm in the riddle...
Cannot even purchase this anymore, not available to stream anywhere apart from this low quality (but much appreciated) youtube video. The website to buy the physical copy is broken and wont checkout any hope on finding a high quality download?
It's astonishingly and hauntingly beautiful to say the least. I personally feel a real connection to the lyrics at the end, it almost makes me feel some sense of worth
Troy wright's cover is actually what introduced me to this song, And I thank him for that ever time i listen to it, which is pretty often. this really is an amazing song, and Tr Wright is an amazing drummer! perfect match!
theoccupantsmusic.bandcamp.com/track/hindsight-radio-edit Well I always looked ahead then behind me I didnt understand nothing ever last me? but im changing the tune and thats given me a new play im back at the start again once upon a time I never stopped to look, but it took just to get this far x2 (awesome typical 'COG band' riff- google) Yes iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii, was walking.. something _________ yeah.. lol i tried
One of the greatest songs of the decade - don't worry if it is criminally ignored it still EXISTS. Good luck COG x
"I never stopped
to look
what it took
to get this far"
Gets me every time!
How the hell am I only just finding out about this after having listened to Cog for 10+ years???
It never really took off which is an absolute tragedy. When it came out I was so ready for them to explode
I love Flynn’s emotional progressions , not to mention his great introspections

there still playing ?

These guys are so ahead of the time with the message in the music its actually insane
That ending is one of the most extraordinary things on earth
This really is a beautiful piece of music. The feeling of coming home in the last section is ecstatic.
LYRICS of the last part of the song:
I’ve been making my way to the finish line
Like a hurricane racing to arrive
I’ve been moving on
Got a ticket home
And what I leave behind
I’ll just let it go
I’ve been making my way
To the finish line
And it drips me on
If I’m out of time
I’ve been moving on, and I’m coming home
Cause I realised what I didn’t know
I’ve been making my way
TOGETHER WE CAN TRANSCRIBE THE WHOLE SONG!!
WAYRA YESSSSSSS PLEAAAASSSSEEEEE
and it trips me up if im out of time i think it says

I never stopped to look at what it took just to get this far
Oh well, I never stopped to look at what it took just to get this far
Yes I was walking with an off beat point of view
And even Ravi Shankar knows it's true
That I have found new life
You see it's feeling that a change has come for free
Rather like an old friend calling me
Yes I have found new life
Up and away, up and home
Feeling I've arrived
Up and away, up and home
Wave my past goodbye
How
(did you get to tomorrow)
(did you get there tomorrow)
How
(did you get to tomorrow)
Up and away, up and home
Feeling I've arrived
Up and away, up and home
Wave my past goodbye
I never stopped to look at what it took just to get this far
Oh well, I never stopped to look at what it took just to get this far
I never stopped to look at what it took
(just to get this far

I never stopped to look at what it took

Oh well, I never stopped to look at what it took just to get this far

Oh well, I never stopped to look at what it took just to get this far

Ooh, I've arrived, move on.
Wave my past goodbye, so long
Ooh, I've arrived
Wave my past goodbye...
** background line, can't make it out **
I've been making my way to the finish line
Like a hurricane racing to arrive
I've been moving on, got a ticket home
And what I leave behind, I'll just let it go

And it trips me up if I'm outta time
I've been moving on and I'll do it whole

@@janolukac8444 I've always heard it as "yes I, was walking with an off beat point of view".
@@Rufus2000 I like it. Totally fits!
Thanks
This song gives me chills. Amazing ❤️
Seriously that outra makes me cry everytime I hear it!
I'll just let it goooooo!
An absolute timeless masterpiece.
You guys should take a bow,
I would love to see this live!
Am I greedy?
YESSSSS!
greatest aussie band. No argument. fight me. They are (well this and COG)
Draydyn the oils mate. Cog occupants awesome 😎 oils different time cog occupants now. Wow 😮
Have u tried Karnivool ?
Them and Grinspoon, COG remind me of the 90s when music was awesum in Australia. 🤙
Yeah. Bloody trademarks.
Troy Wright brought me here.
same :)
same
Check out Cog, Lucius Borich is a drumming god!
This needs more love and people hearing it, is beautiful
awesome aussie rock music was way before it's time!
they seem more relevant for 2020!!
Absolutely LOVE this song!
Oh well I always looked ahead
rather than behind me
I didn't understand
nothing ever lasts
But I'm changing the turn
And that's giving me a new plan
I'm back at the start again
Once upon a time yeah hey
I never stopped
to look
what it took
just to get this far
Oh I never stopped
to look
what it took
just to get this far
.... I don't now but surely we can finish the lyrics together!
I think it might be changing the tune, instead of turn.
this tune is incredible!!!
in my humble opinion, ‘incredible’ is a massive verbal understatement (unless followed by multiple exclamation marks :) ). what Flynn and Luke, together with Troy here, have been producing across the years-also as C.O.G.-in terms of music, lyrics, sincerity, is-in my world-the top-most league of TOOL. not too many bands or musicians there.
its .. its Perfect! never hear this band before....
Good god, this is absolutely amazing.
wow, what a voice... and the song overall is gorgeous!
Love. Love with my entire being
This song ROCKS!!
The best thing to come from the break-up of COG! (Haha, I was obviously not happy about that as were all fans) What an incredible song though, reflection is definitely mostly taken for granted. Hindsight is definitely 20/20. Love these guys!
this makes an AMAZING ringtone.
HOW can anyone not like this?
apparently, such beings do exist (nature has proven many times it has a rather skewed sense of humor) and i’m really curious about their reasons for investing the time and effort to express their dislike, even if all it’s taken was a single down-vote click. if one engages enough to let the world know they don’t like, i’d expect the dislike to be quite prominent. but still, in the end ‘de gustibus non disputandum est’…
So much love for you lads.
Cant believe its taken me so long to find this. Love it!
This song is too fucking amazing not to be rocked more often. Why isn't the band out there trying to promote themselves?
Awesome as always from these guys
Soooo goood!!!!!
Love this band!!
(and COG and Floyd)
Plucken oath!!!
I'm chomping at the bit for Sat 16th.. My eighth COG gig..
"I'm drifting.. around.. knowing.. And I drifted around knowing.....
... that we are all going to die"..
The rhythm in the riddle puts the pedal to the medal its the middle of the puzzle The middle of the puzzle put the pedal to the metal it's the rhythm in the riddle The rhythm in the riddle put the pedal to the medal it's the middle of the puzzle The middle of the puzzle put the pedal to the metal is the rhythm in the riddle...
Probably my favorite track from this side project.
❤
Thank you Troy Wright
I love finding music on youtube
Cannot even purchase this anymore, not available to stream anywhere apart from this low quality (but much appreciated) youtube video. The website to buy the physical copy is broken and wont checkout any hope on finding a high quality download?
love this song
IN COG & THE OCCUPANTS WE TRUST !!!!!!!!
Great voice
That outro is somehow the heaviest part of the song
+PanasonicTooth its worth the wait I agree
It's astonishingly and hauntingly beautiful to say the least. I personally feel a real connection to the lyrics at the end, it almost makes me feel some sense of worth
Last couple of minutes is gold
we need a COG to keep it running guys...
You guys should check out a cover of this song played by an excellent drummer Troy Wright ;)
+Michał Bula Troy Wright actually recorded this track with them.
+Nick Campbell Didn't know. Thanks ;)

Troy wright's cover is actually what introduced me to this song, And I thank him for that ever time i listen to it, which is pretty often. this really is an amazing song, and Tr Wright is an amazing drummer! perfect match!
