Tracing the point
Where the timelines cross
Where the numbers were dialled in wrong
A faded graphic
Of faces without lines
Eyes shut tight and heads held back in song
Try to measure the cracks in your voice
And the gaps between the things that you said
The shape of your stories lends a simple outline
To all the lines I write in my head
Trawling through back issues
Turning dusty pages
For memories that I can rerun
You were hiding for so long
You were hiding for so long
Let's talk celluloid, let's dowse it in drink
Let's run ourselves right into the grund
Some shoulders bear the weight of heads to ld too soon
I wonder what you'd make f this now
How'd we get a century so wrong?
Let's talk celluloid...
Needles and pins
And a thin layer of skin
And a dot on a question mark
We deal in fallout
We deal in complicity
We deal in tracing this arc
How'd we get a century so wrong?
How'd we let the decade just slip by?
How'd we make a lifetime feel so long?

Well I first listened to this a couple of times on a quiet Sunday afternoon and it really took hold - Emotionally charged songs that resonate with killer riffs that tip a hat to HDQ and Leatherface.. A real gem of a second album that will stay in my top playlist for a while! Dave Miller
