about

Frustration is the latest release from Diffusion Lab’s newest recruit - indie-pop artist SVEN. Following on from his debut release last year “Shoreditch”, “Frustration” paints SVEN’s story of recent pressure he put himself under to be his own best self, the pursuit of constant perfection in life as a whole, only to realise this isn’t how life needs to be, that life should be lived as desired and dreams should be chased.

Set against a melancholic but warm melody and offset against an uplifting driving rhythm backed by SVEN’s soothing but powerful vocals, Frustration is just the beginning of the promising road down which SVEN is headed.

lyrics

VERSE

Was it my fault that you gave up?

Was it mine?

Or was there something else inside?

Couldn’t keep it out of sight and out of mind

PRE CHORUS

Did you really need me?

Was it just to please me?

Yeah I thought you would of took my side

Nevermind

CHORUS

Tell my friends I’m gone

I can’t keep hanging around here

Cause I know they could never see

To the end, I’ll crawl

Frustration can’t keep me down no

Cause I know where I’m meant to be

(Ooh)

VERSE

Did you really think about the things you said you would?

No, I could read it in the glance you gave

Nothing real beyond the surface

PRE CHORUS

Did you really need me?

Was it just to please me?

Yeah I thought would of took my side

Nevermind

CHORUS

Tell my friends I’m gone

I can’t keep hanging around here

Cause I know they could never see

(Ooh)

To the end, I’ll crawl

Frustration can’t keep me down no

Cause I know where I’m meant to be

BRIDGE

When I told you I’m feeling down

I couldn’t tell if you would take it serious

Now I know that we can’t go back

Cause we’re a shadow of the future we had

(Ooh)

OUTRO

I told you I’m feeling down

I couldn’t tell if you would take it serious
