about

It's finally time. Our first new Album in two years comes April 2014. This is the first single...spread it round, we're comin to take it to the stage near you!

lyrics

You can dock my pay, put me out on the street
I’ll be a stay at home dad with his kids on a leash
I don’t need no supervision, no one telling me what to do

Cause there’s a fine line, between love and remorse
Why am I twiddling my thumbs while you’re beating a horse
It don’t change, It don’t change,
It don’t change, It don’t change,
the machine, the machine
The machine

I see visions from the other side
Kick and scream and leave you terrified
When you’re gone, that’s when I want you the most
But I Can Be Your Ghost child

I wag my tail like a junkie, on the trail of his loot
We can swallow our pills, like we swallow the truth,
clicking heels of ruby slippers ain’t the same as
knocking boots – it’s the truth

Cause there’s a fine line, between a cog and gear
We have a mind like an engine and no hand left to steer
I’ve seen far too many bottoms of a bottle of beer
But I’m here

I see visions from the other side
Kick and scream and leave you terrified
When you’re gone, that’s when I want you the most
But I Can Be Your Ghost child
I can be, I can be your ghost child

Sometimes you’ve got to plan for the worst
The kind of life you haven’t rehearsed.
And just because I said it, doesn’t mean it’s true,
Just because you love me, doesn’t mean…

Some dark place between the coke and the caine’
Our generation lost heart, lost the blood from the veins
My suggestion is a question is love just a bloody game

There’s a fine line between a face and a screen
You’re on a phone you are alone, you are a digital fiend
We can change, we can change
We can change, we can change
the machine, the machine
The machine

I see visions from the other side
Kick and scream and leave you terrified
When you’re gone, that’s when I want you the most
But I Can Be Your Ghost child

Sometimes you’ve got to plan for the worst
The kind of life you haven’t rehearsed
Just because I said it, doesn’t mean it’s true
Just because you love me, doesn’t mean
That I
love you
