A recording of 'Dense Distraction' from one rehearsal. The lyrics are by Nicky, and it's a song about PTSD according to an after-thought of Russell's ;-)
Excuse my weird dancing - I was keeping time with my foot and my whole body seems to have gone with it!
Lyrics:
Do you think you've lived long enough
To earn the right to die?
I could let you mean the world to me
But it's hard to swallow bitterness and pride.
Chorus:
Our angels, our casualties
I'm left face down.
Where light trails across my sight
I wish you could feel like me sometimes.
Your passion, it's my addiction
It's what's keeping me here by your side.
But when you searched for a hero
All that was left was me
And you died screaming
Chorus
This was meant to be golden
Now it's fallen and broken
Everyone thinks I'm fine
But I wish you could feel like me sometimes.
Chorus x2
This was meant to be golden
Now it's fallen and broken
Everyone thinks I'm fine
But I wish you could feel like me sometimes.
