lyrics

the story you keep
is known for many things
there's nothing left to be yearning for
it's full of things known to destroy

the rage that's underneath
is much too deep
it's gonna burn right through the seams
it's coming up let's get it going

it's dark on my town
it's crossing the boundaries
criss crossing around yeah

it's gonna get too hot
hot enough to melt the sky yeah
the fire and the smoke gonna block out the light

it's burning down outside
hell is raging on the countryside
the process is gonna start
nowhere to hide ah nowhere to hide uh

but don't you try to hide tonight
we'll go down we'll all go down
down together we'll all go down
down together and now we are glowing

keep your eyes above the line
they're pulling us down now
our souls take their lives yeah

keep your eyes up
to the sky yeah
the black has arrived there's nothing alive

get a little bit closer
get a little bit closer
get a little bit closer
the missiles are closer

Grand Republic recommends:

Slow Glass
by Stephen Fellows

The song craft of perhaps XTC but with a dark and elemental post punk vibe. Stephen writes excellent songs with melodic hooks which are undeniable. Grand Republic

The View From Halfway Down
by Andy Bell

Another impressive solo release from Andy Bell of Ride - a selection of trippy, melodic and hypnotic tunes that evokes memories of Stereolab, Spacemen 3, and Beck. Grand Republic

Life Model Decoy
by the CFR

Sean, Christy, and Davey push into sonic beauty and occasional weirdness and make it look damn easy. Grand Republic
