Bones 02:55
My bones are healing My broken bones And my scars will fade in a sober state And I’ll regain the feeling that I'm not leaving My broken bones No more altered state to alleviate In a temporary way That my bones, they cry for you And my bones they cry for you Put down the bottle before you throttle yourself I knew you were trouble when you walked in seeing double And chose that spot there where you fell I don’t know what I’m looking for It’s not passed out on the floor All effect can’t find the cause And then you fall in through the door And I know Your trouble I'm seeing double Dark places I'm face with And I know just what to do

I've got to stop counting what I haven’t got I haven’t got much but to some that’s a lot Have you got enough? I know I’m blessed cause I’ve never slept on a sidewalk in the cold and wet “It’s all I could spare” is what I said. Just a handful of cents and then I walked home to bed Have you got enough? Unkempt and unfed stands a man with no bed On the corner he leans in and this is what he says Those people there. They could have been my friends I once had a dream but all good things must end Have you had enough?

You haven’t made up your mind If you’ll make it through the night I’d never thought to even try Your first time you were barely 9 I wanna help you find your light But i keep misplacing mine And that’s the travesty of life It’s shapeless and blameless and everybody here just blindly tries Hold on one more Hold on one more night Waist the day away White knuckles braced To hold on one more Hold on one more night When your darkness rears its head Your face caressed by it’s cold breath I can only pray and beg Not to lose another friend You haven’t made up your mind ***** It’s shapeless and blameless and I just really don’t want you to die

Came unwound 02:31
Lost and found coming down Get back, gotta get back up Pound for pound came unwound Get back, gotta get back up We’ll be climbing out for some time now It was a long way down, gotta get back up Your last caress Beads of sweat Can’t forget What led here Your mind undressed Left unkept Eyes are red You’re reeling Scream and shout angry now Fuck that, gotta get back up Tumbling out your open mouth Shut that, gotta get back up Heard you crying out “what’s lost’s been found” Sing eureka now, gotta get back up Tall tales We’ve been writing down Came unwound They’re failing Watch us wipe the Slate clean Watch it fading We’re changing now

You don’t know if you need me any more You’re going to throw my shit right out on the lawn Been digging a hole all day Scratching out a new place to stay Crumbling edges widen and gape I know better than all this self pity and hate If you need to breathe just take a breath I’m sorry we let things become such a mess Haven’t got a friend haven’t got a leg to stand on It’s the bitter end I don’t know if you don’t Sink your teeth in real deep Separated skin begins to bleed was it you or was it me I felt relief when I watched you leave

Eat the rich 02:31
A little bit off track, a little list of what we lack Got real long A little rhyme and riddle, politicians dribble I’l write another song Stuck in the middle, stuck in the middle with you I stole that bit and I’ll rob you too Eat the rich This democracies bureaucracy Is tearing us to bits Eat the rich Get yourself to school, don’t wanna be no one’s fool But you know a stone won’t bleed So you’ll pay the toll cause information’s bought and sold A commodified industry Eat the rich This philosophy of sodomy Is tearing us to bits Eat the rich Tear it down start again We’re headed for our fateful end It won’t be pretty, it won’t be clean It’ll strip us down, what will be found Is what we have is not what we need
7.
Lie to me 03:07
Lie to me baby can’t get enough And when it’s over we’ll light one up Laying side by side bodies entwined Looking out the window as the whole world unwinds Cry with me baby cause it’s unfair I hear people talking but there’s no one there who cares So let it tumble, let it burn We’ll etch in our epitaph with we never learnt See you in hell Not feeling well 123 it’s looking bleak 321 sorry Lenon Singing peace and love never won And there’ll be no forgiveness for what we’ve done Climbing up and out of this hole is Something we ought to be unfolding But i see we’re stuck. There’s something holding A goose stepping strut. Seen this path we’re following

Not long now 03:51
Im sick and Im bored This democracy’s full of People willing to pull Down their pants on all fours The rich are stiff and they’re poised So close your eyes and think moist thoughts You’ll be pleasantly surprised when this all turns to shit Cause it won’t be long till you die You’ve gone and screwed this pooch It wont be long till you die Keep burning fossil fuels You might not like what you find Your Grandchildren are swimming where there used to be land and They’ll look back on your complacency with shame and embarrassment As the teeth fall from their heads and the blisters form on their hands and Their sister died at age 10 just cause she couldn’t catch her breath and a bubble popped in her head she said You fucked our oxygen supply When you should have been looking left you voted right You stood impotent as you let the rich Sodomise you and the place you live And you barely made a whimper when you lost the fight Cause you’d bought your own lies

Don’t wanna see Three feet in front of me Don't wanna be Anything, anything I rescind I regret Wasted words on wasted breath Build your walls Build them tall Wont matter cause The storm is coming Ignore our flaws Parasitic thoughts Won’t matter cause The storm is coming Deranged and afraid in your corner you’ll stay Take the land from your feet leave you hung up to bleed They’ll suck your bones to the marrow while your life is unravelled Here’s what you’ll do Catch the number 2 Got an interview The storm is coming A facebook post A humble boast Raised glass to toast The storm is coming Brand new car Looks real smart Gonna get you far The storm is coming ***** You stand in your place and you wait to be saved Nothing’s preordained but you refuse to change

2020 Can’t see shit for the life of me Coffee goes down alright, hi Miss Molly Eyes wide what a sight I’m sorry Thugs wield poles in the night it’s very scary Been walking outside, you’ve been talking To fill up the sound of a city yawning Miss that piece you can’t find Drew too far outside the lines Bodies on loan for the night Ain’t nothing you can’t buy Upside down, wrong way round Pick me up tear me down Blank faces turn to a frown She said "I've got a little story so sit right down" **** Hey get back inside, little rabbit You’re just along for the ride

about

It has been a challenging year for everybody and I have been lucky enough to be able to pour myself into a shared creative process.
This new album embodies the growth we have experienced as a band and as song writers.
Our first album visited many themes indicative of looking inward. While that has continued into the second album, there is also a sense of this perception moving out into the world to not only explore the individual human experience but to shine a light on some of the larger, external systems that entangle the individual in a global community.
2020 saw us face problems on a global scale. This experience should emphasise that we are indeed part of a global community and that if properly motivated, people are collectively capable of implementing vast change on personal, industrial and cultural levels within a short time frame.
This gives me hope for other global challenges that loom heavily over us.
This record contains our hearts, hopes and fears.
I hope you like it.
Leith
