1.
Such a delicate weakness to keep your heart on the run Pick up all the pieces you got a mouth like gun Hot lead in the chamber son, you've got a trigger disease You know it's got a hold of you Black and blue ‘till you bleed I don't need your rules I won't play by them You could be somebody else's fool and play it cool 'till the end Walk your life on a tightrope, the tension keeps you afloat Attitude at this altitude is just a piss in the breeze No time to come undone, spitting blood through your teeth Nobody got control of you Black and blue till you bleed I don't need your rules I won't play by them You could be somebody else's fool and play it cool 'till the end

Divide 02:59
High hopes for the towns below And they don't know that the enemy is poverty Uproot the right man and recognise that bowing out is always wrong Shake down the sheriff now He's got pockets deeper than a gold mine Time to get it right, 'cause time is wasting you Now don't you see there's enough for you and me? As long as we can learn to divide what is mine Peel back the cataracts Unless you’re liking what you see? Turn back and face the wrap Give it up, give it up and face the truth Now don't you see there's enough for you and me? As long as we can learn to divide what is mine

Re-animate 03:03
Re-animating another cell mate in waiting Another monkey who fell too far from his tree You lose direction when you see how far down the food chain we are And misdirection is the only key out of here Refuse to be left for dead in the water I’d exhaust the air in my lungs that keeps me alive The bark of the dog is worse than the bite Indoctrination into this psycho vacation And these illusions have got me feeling hollow These Jesus junkies won't get their fix ‘till they break me down to sticks of six So come on, who's with me? Refuse to be left for dead in the water I’d exhaust the air in my lungs that keep me alive Refuse to be left for dead in the water The bark of the dog is worse than the bite

In the waking hours in the dead of night I'm shaken awake by the moonlight I hear the whispers call out from the deep A little closer now Closer to me Eyes like the fires that embrace me A lullaby so haunting and so sweet …to pull me down I feel a piece of me is taken away Like a moth to the flame, you drive me insane Oblivious to the Siren's call I'm in too deep You're my femme fatal I feel your nails right beneath my skin Like sunburn seizures but I love the sting To your charm and allure their ain’t no cure A stone in your gaze Melodies that call out from beyond That tethers me to your hungry heart … to pull me down I feel a piece of me is taken away Like a moth to the flame, you drive me insane Oblivious to the Siren's call I'm in too deep I feel a piece of me is taken away Like a moth to the flame, you drive me insane Oblivious to the Siren's call I'm in too deep You're my femme fatal

about

Here is our debut EP.
We set out to create something that represented the sound of our band. The approach was to track instruments live, add some texture later and give it to you.
Thanks to Evert and Louise at The Backline for engineering, mixing and mastering this for us. You guys rock!
