I missed you dearly, Thought I was nearly, there forever, at last together Is our time fleeting? Is even meeting, A healthy idea or am I getting too near? When you gonna run away, When you gonna learn to say, You've got to live your life, Remember don't give up the fight. You better not hideaway, You really gotta live each day, You have to live your life, It’s not a threat just some advice Don’t try to fight it (fight it fight it) I’m here for tonight (tonight) And I’ll waiting for you until we meet again I know it’s scary, (scary) But don’t be wary (don't be wary) If we don’t have that long let’s not waste our time feeling wrong. This isn’t the end I’m your lifelong friend Sure it’s been a while But I’ll be here when you smile When you gonna run away, When you gonna learn to say, You've got to live your life, Remember don't give up the fight. You better not hideaway, You really gotta live each day, You have to live your life, It’s not a threat just some advice When you gonna run away, When you gonna learn to say, You've got to live your life, Remember don't give up the fight. You better not hideaway, You really gotta live each day, You have to live your life, It’s not a threat just some advice.

I held you back anyway I could Every trick I could think of, every play in the book Now I'm overwhelmed and my mind is firmly in your grasp So if this is the beginning of the end, just make it fast make it fast Come on and pull the trigger Light the spark I guess we never figured it get this far Come on and strike up the matchstick Blow the fuse Come on and pull the trigger You've got nothing left to lose I've tried to fight it for far too long My chest feels lighter the minute, the second you're gone But sure enough you creep back with even more of a vengeance By now we've tried everything, there's only one way left to end this Come on and pull the trigger Light the spark I guess we never figured it get this far Come on and strike up the matchstick Blow the fuse Come on and pull the trigger You've got nothing left to lose Pull the pin tell the hangman to tighten the noose Tell the firing squad to prepare to shoot Pull the pin tell the hangman to tighten the noose Tell the firing squad to prepare to shoot Pull the pin tell the hangman to tighten the noose Tell the firing squad to prepare to shoot Pull the pin tell the hangman to tighten the noose Tell the firing squad... Come on and pull the trigger Light the spark I guess we never figured it get this far Come on and strike up the matchstick Blow the fuse Come on and pull the trigger You've got nothing left to lose

All our times have come Here but now they're gone Seasons don't fear the reaper Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain, we can be like they are Come on baby, don't fear the reaper Baby take my hand, don't fear the reaper We'll be able to fly, don't fear the reaper Baby I'm your man La, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la Valentine is done Here but now they're gone Romeo and Juliet Are together in eternity, Romeo and Juliet 40, 000 men and women everyday, Like Romeo and Juliet 40, 000 men and women everyday, Redefine happiness Another 40, 000 coming everyday, We can be like they are Come on baby, don't fear the reaper Baby take my hand, don't fear the reaper We'll be able to fly, don't fear the reaper Baby I'm your man La, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la Love of two is one Here but now they're gone Came the last night of sadness And it was clear she couldn't go on Then the door was open and the wind appeared The candles blew then disappeared The curtains flew then he appeared, saying don't be afraid Come on baby, and she had no fear And she ran to him, then they started to fly They looked backward and said goodby, she had become like they are She had taken his hand, she had become like they are Come on baby, don't fear the reaper

There's a fire burning through the night, You want to stop it but it burns so bright, And although it burns you, it guides the way To a better place, a better place they say. You've seen it burning, You've been blinded by its beauty You forget to see what it's doing to you. You couldn't see the scars that are burned into your life Only the bright lights, that glow in your eyes. The fire starts to burn out of control, You don't want it to stop as it burns with a beautiful glow, Then you decide it's not worth the pain it needs to go, After the fire is gone the darkness overthrows. You've seen it burning, You've been blinded by its beauty You forget to see what it's doing to you. You couldn't see the scars that are burned into your life Only the bright lights, that glow in your eyes. When the dust settles and the air, the air it clears, You see a new sun rising, the first one you've seen in years, It's warmth will shine greatly from a far, It's light will heal you, you will recover. You've seen it burning, You've been blinded by its beauty You forget to see what it's doing to you. You couldn't see the scars that are burned into your life Only the bright lights, that glow in your eyes. You've seen it burning, You've been blinded by its beauty You forget to see what it's doing to you. You couldn't see the scars that are burned into your life Only the bright lights, that glow in your eyes. Only the bright lights, that glow in your eyes.

See them all Their finest rags Pressed and cleaned empty facade Fake a laugh To hide their pains They only care ‘bout their own gains The night goes on Their glasses stack Spirits rise They get knocked back Crowded bars Such noisy streets So many reasons You want to leave With the Hazy nights and dark dirty streets You want to run but can't find your feet The Room is packed and you can’t turn back Don't fight it anymore Pour me another and together we drink till we don’t know, What brought us here and why we're living our lives from behind the glass, Pour once again and let's pretend that, We are all still in control, And that we'll make it our own, When things go wrong and the world come crashing down. Down, Oh so down, Down, Crashing down, Down, Oh so down. See you now Boisterous and loud Liquid courage The life of the crowd Now top dog You lead the pack Like manic mutts Ready to attack Night rounds off Day creeping in Reality Starts to set in No use now No need to hide You’ll come around And then you’ll say Pour me another and together we drink till we don’t know, What brought us here and why we're living our lives from behind the glass, Pour once again and let's pretend that, We are all still in control, And that we'll make it our own, When things go wrong and the world come crashing down.

I wish we had been honest, But it’s all just lost time, We shouldn’t have made a false promise, Might have turned out fine, I wish we could just go back to the start and open our minds, We’ve should’ve realised, It's all so clear to me now, We missed the signs. No wasted time now, Gotta go don't think about how, No losing sleep, Let's not get stuck on repeat. No wasted time now, Gotta go don’t think how, No losing sleep, We’re not gonna just go on repeat. Things have moved beyond us, now my worries are no one’s but mine, There just no point in trying, all the crying in the world won’t turn back time, My sights are set on better days, no way i'm faltering now, its underlined, It’s useless fighting over blame when it’s so clear that we both ignored the signs. No wasted time now, Gotta go don't think about how, No losing sleep, Let's not get stuck on repeat. No wasted time now, Gotta go don’t think how, No losing sleep, We’re not gonna just go on repeat. This time don't let time drag you down, There time to make this turn around. This time don't let time drag you down, There time to make this turn around. This time don't let time drag you down, There time to make this turn around. This time don't let time drag you down, There time to make this turn around. No wasted time now, Gotta go don't think about how, No losing sleep, Let's not get stuck on repeat. No wasted time now, Gotta go don’t think how, No losing sleep, We’re not gonna just go on repeat.

Here we stand or here we fall History won't care at all Make the bed, light the light Lady Mercy won't be home tonight You don't waste no time at all Don't hear the bell but you answer the call It comes to you as to us all Yeah, we're just waiting for the hammer to fall, yeah Oh every night, and every day A little piece of you is falling away But lift your face the Western way Build your muscles as your body decays, yeah Tow the line and play their game Yeah, let the anesthetic cover it all 'Til one day they call your name You know it's time for the hammer to fall Rich or poor or famous For your truth it's all the same (Oh no, oh no) Oh, lock your door but rain is pouring Through your window pane (Oh no) Hey yeah, baby, now your struggle's all in vain, yeah For we who grew up tall and proud In the shadow of the Mushroom Cloud Convinced our voices can't be heard We just wanna scream it louder and louder and louder What the hell are we fighting for? Ah, just surrender and it won't hurt at all You just got time to say your prayers Yeah, while you're waiting for the hammer to, hammer to fall Hey, yes Let's get on the floor, yeah Hammer You know Hammer to fall Yeah Hey, woo hoo Ha ha, ha ha I've been waiting for the hammer to fall Give it to me one more time

When you gotta run you better run ( but just don’t fade away) This chapter’s done, might not have won ( but just don’t fade away) If life gets rough, pause if you must (But just don’t fade away) Just take some time, you can unwind (But just don’t fade away) When you gotta run you better run ( but just don’t fade away) This chapter’s done, might not have won ( but just don’t fade away) If life gets rough, pause if you must (But just don’t fade away) Just take some time, you can unwind (But just don’t fade away) Don’t let the space between us grow so far You can’t take it back Fences can't be mended til we reconcile and learn to take this weight We need to get this back on track Get it back on track But no matter the fall We always seem to pull through So don‘t fade away Don’t fade away It’s been so long since we had to draw the line You can’t take it back (can’t ever take it back) No way out now we’ve burnt that path last time we’ll have to just press on We need to get this back Get it back on track But with our backs to the wall We always seem to pull through So don‘t fade away Don’t fade away Two lives diverge, but in time they reconnect We fought and got it back on track Got it back on track And though we've been through it all We always seem to pull through So don‘t fade away Don’t fade away

about

Back before Lockdown 2.0, Bannermans Bar were kind enough to invite us down to film a live show. The intention was to show this gig in the bar shortly after but unfortunately Lockdown 2.0 has put that on hold.

"Live in Lockdown" is the live album from the show will be released on Friday the 13th of November with pre-orders going live on November 6th.

Lastly, we want to give a massive thank you to Bannermans Bar, Scapegoat.tv and James MacDonald for putting this all together for us!
