about

Second Chances is the first single from the upcoming EP "Songs Without a Chorus." Inspired musically by the discovery of David Gilmour's high strung guitar and lyrically by those who are willing to cast the die and dare greatly. Second Chances is undoubtedly Zotter's most adventurous production to date with dreamy beds of music and lyrics of desires and dreams which challenge you to ask yourself... Do you dare?

lyrics

The day begins
It’s time to start again
The sun is rising, cast off the lies
Second chances are everywhere you look
It’s time to cast the die

You know you can’t win ’til you lose…

Just a picture
Framed inside your mind
Kept away for another day
While worldly wonders hold you down, it’s now
It’s time for your second chance

You know you can’t win ’til you lose
You know it ain’t easy, but if you choose
You will find the truth, you can be the proof
You can keep your secrets
And let your voice roar above the noise
You can trust your claim and take back your name
And the chains will be broken at last

If you dare… do you dare?

You can fly, you can fly away

“the credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena
whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood;
who knows the great enthusiasms; the great devotions; and spends himself in a worthy cause;
who at best, if he wins, knows the thrills of high achievement,
and if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly,
so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."
(John F Kennedy quoting Theodore Roosevelt NYC 12/5/61)
