This is "The Album" so far.

We're putting studio tracks out in the order they are intended to be listened to. It's a concept album, it tells a story and uses the "hero's journey" as a template to do that.

The story is about you.

LYRICS: 

Welcome to your entertainment for the evening
We're just here to check that you're still sleeping
Put your headset on, I'm gonna miss you when you're gone;
Where you're going there is no need for thinking...

This is The Roaring Twenties, some of us will never leave
This is The Roaring Twenties. And you will see things you cannot
Believe...

Blow your mind inside the need for connection
Which is worse, indifference or rejection?
Stare into the screen, keep your mind unclean
Your device is suffering from an infection, yeah, yeah, yeah

This is The Roaring Twenties, some of us will never leave
This is The Roaring Twenties. And you will see things you cannot
Believe...

Your leaders won your thoughts and your names
The awakening is rising in your veins
Stare into The Sun
See the darkness run
They all forgot: in this world, Chaos reigns...

This is The Roaring Twenties, some of us will never leave
This is The Roaring Twenties. And you will see things you cannot
Believe...

This is The Roaring Twenties, some of us will never leave
This is The Roaring Twenties. And you will see things you cannot
Believe...

The Roaring Twenties

LYRICS: 

Green skinned and beautiful with long red hair
Eyes jet black with a threatening stare
Legs; long, sharp claws, thin black lips
Tight little cape flowing round her hips

She is a Waterwitch, yeah
I never thought of it, oh no
What, a Witch? Yeah?
I never thought of it, oh no!

She looked at me and she, read my mind
I looked at her I said; what did you find?
Had me that night and the very next day
Taught me to spell; magick with a "K"

She is a Waterwitch, yeah
I never thought of it, oh no
What, a Witch? Yeah?
I never thought of it, oh no!

Go get your broom and lets get high
Lift up your legs and touch the sky
Go get your broom and lets get high
Lift up your legs and touch the sky

Waterwitch, yeah
I never thought of it, oh no
What, a Witch? Yeah?
I never thought of it, oh no!

She said she came from Lemuria,
I looked at her and said are you sure yeah?
So she took me all the way to Lemuria and
She's definitely from Lemuria

I said: Waterwitch, yeah
I never thought of it, oh no
What, a Witch? Yeah?
I never thought of it, oh no!

Waterwitch

Are people honest;
Or do most of them pretend?
We believe in love;
Or is that something that we say?

Your memory, really is your best friend
But when the truth is hidden does it matter anyway?

Black Cat, tell us how it is; black cat, tell us how it is: I-A-O-U-E

Now the end is near, see how their faces speak of gloom.
Can you read their minds? Or do their eyes give you the proof?
We're falling down, we've walled a monster in a tomb!
As the animal screams, here it try to tell the truth...

All good people your time has come, all good people your time has come I-A-O-U-E...

(Art by Neil Carey; @mrbultitude on Instagram)

Black Cat

See The Lion at the bottom of the road?
Telling everyone he is made of gold?
Standing in the night when it's quiet and still.
Turn your eyes and look towards the hill...

We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives

There's a rock in a field just before the park
What they did up there has left a mark
It's where the burned the Witches in times gone by
It's where they took our sisters, to die

We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives

When the wind changes it blows your mind
There's a million rainbows in your lies
Can you hear the birds calling out your name?
The entire universe knows you're ashamed

We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives

Fourth song in the series. It's a concept album, it tells a story. It's set in #Lancaster in the UK. The lyrics to this one put you outside The Golden Lion pub, at night, and take you up the road to the rock in the field just before the park which is there to commemorate the Witches of Pendle, "and all who were killed for their faith".

The Devil Lives

Man with the exploding brain:

Is there a reason, that we cannot find
Why all the people, are losing their mind
What is the truth, or is there no such thing
Can you believe, - in anything?

He's the man! With the exploding brain.
And he's worried. That he's going insane.
He is the man! With the exploding brain.
And he's worried -  he's going insane.

Outside his window. There are people to fear
Inside his house. There is no one here
Do not question. Cause they'll find you out
No thinking, thinking leads to doubt

He's the man! With the exploding brain.
And he's worried. That he's going insane.
He's the man! With the exploding brain.
And he's worried. That he's going insane.

'Now it's over we can be normal and new
We've got machines, to tell you what is true
We've done and said - things we all regret
So it's time - to forgive and forget

He's the man! With the exploding brain.
And he's worried. That he's going insane.
He's the man! With the exploding brain.
And he's worried. That he's going insane.

The Man With The Exploding Brain

LAMPWICK (PRACTICE)

FEEL ALIVE

Living these days, life is a maze, time keeps spiralling on
You can't see me, I can't see you,
Maybe that's the way it should be

Got to feel my heart break before I fall in love
Got to feel my heart break before I fall in love

Feel alive
Feel alive
Feel alive
Feel alive

Underneath The starry sky I'm beginning to feel
Electrified
I have No more Words to say
We used them all up yesterday

Got to feel my heart break before I fall in love
Got to feel my heart break before I fall in love

Feel alive
Feel alive
Feel alive
Feel alive

Living these days, life is a maze, time keeps spiralling on
You can't see me, I can't see you, maybe that's the way it should be

Got to feel my heart break before I fall in love
Got to feel my heart break before I fall in love

Feel alive
Feel alive
Feel alive
Feel alive
