We live in between
The worlds we’re given
Ah ah ah ah
We sleep in
The cracks beneath your toes
Ah ah ah ah
Appear in the dark
When all is sleeping
Ah ah ah ah
Lighting the embers
Nobody knows
Ah ah ah ah

We come for the day
When all the all the brothers
(Brother forgive me)
And sisters
Will take away your pain
(Sister of mine)
A kiss on the cheek
It was your Judas
(Brother forgive me)
Sipping away
On cheap champagne
(Sister of mine)

My independence from you
The end of domination
I’m leaving with a fracture
In my heart
And watching the machines work
I’m standing there beside you
We’re breathing in the fresh air
Of the lie
Cheap wine and paper roses
I’ll wrap them up for you
If your world’s gonna fall to pieces
Ooh you’d better believe
In what you do
I’m on the edge of nowhere
Pride is like a mountain
Looming in the shadows
Crucified
We’re gonna have to run soon
They’re clearing out the city
Be we could be together
If we try
Cheap wine and paper roses
I’ll wrap them up for you
If your world’s gonna fall to pieces
Ooh you’d better believe
In what you do
Yeah
Not coming home this time
Yeah
Not coming home this time
Cheap wine and paper roses
I’ll wrap them up for you
If your world’s gonna fall to pieces
Ooh you’d better believe
In what you do
Paper roses
Paper roses
Paper roses

How many days are lost
That you don’t want to find
I see you in the dark
I know you’re there
All of the midnight horses
Waiting for the ride
Know December’s
Coming ‘round again
So pick up your boots
Your heavy hearted journey
We’re going to magic mountain
Yeah yeah yeah
Saddle the horse
Across the dunes awaiting
We’re going to magic mountain
Yeah yeah yeah
This could be a dream
It’s not what it seems
If you think
You love me
How many years are lost
That you can’t bare to find
It takes a special kind
Of inspiration
Fixing a broken clock
I thought you’d left behind
Time will only measure
Your illusion
So pick up your boots
Your heavy hearted journey
We’re going to magic mountain
Yeah yeah yeah
Saddle the horse
Across the dunes awaiting
We’re going to magic mountain
Yeah yeah yeah
This could be a dream
Not what it seems
Magic mountain
Yeah yeah yeah
Not what it seems
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah

Every bleeding heart
Could make you lose
Your mind
Every cross that you bare
Can make you
So unkind
If we pull together
We’ll never make it alone
If we work together
Whatever happened to love
All the different ways
You made me live
My life
Ah ah ah
Every little retraction
Just to fucking survive
Ah
Yeah
If we pull together
We’ll never make it alone
If we work together
Whatever happened to love
Ooh is it overrated
Ooh does it fill the void
Ooh is it calculated
Yeah
Well I’ll send the vultures
In this time
Can’t we give it
One more try
Cos you say you
Want to be my bride
Okay
Alright
If we pull together
We’ll never make it alone
If we work together
We’ll never have to
Be strong
Shattered boy
Shattered boy
If we leave tomorrow
Well they will
Never know
Shattered boy
Shattered boy
If we pull together
Whatever happened to love
Every bleeding heart
Every bleeding heart
Every bleeding heart
Shattered boy
Shattered boy
Shattered boy
Shattered boy

Planet Of Storms

supported by 6 fans who also own “The Secret People”
From the first note, this album time-warped me back to the 80s! While playing it, my wife asked, "Hey, that's great! Who is that?" She usually doesn't express an opinion, so that's quite the recommendation. Anyway, this isn't just derivative nostalgia. These are great songs that'll keep you listening.

From Mississippi, Blue Livingroom deliver a record full of haunting, low-lit synth numbers with big hooks and a palpable sense of danger.

Castlebeat’s “VHS” offsets bright, jangly songs with smoky, lo-fi production, giving their pie-eyed melodies a sense of mystery.

This lauded synth-punk group put out their last album a decade ago - now they're back, with more taut dystopian anthems.
