Here's a demo of our song "Thirteen Hours" that we recorded all by our grown up selves. Available for free download! Enjoy!

Lyrics:
Thirteen hours 'til morning
So boy heed my warning
Greater men have fallen
Even fewer have made it out alive
Battle-scarred and wild
With a chance to find
What is real

Sunrise beats his dead eyes
Arms outstretched to catch a ride
To the land of favour
But for now he'll have to bide his time
Sit on hands a while
Let it take it's course
And hunt for oil

Blinded straight by the city lights
Flounder incessantly through the dark
He'll fight back the wolves 
That pray in the night
Just to carry on searching for his love

Time is turning over
As his mind starts to sober
Face down in the gutter
Luring him into the black abyss
That he thought he'd missed
Let him piss away
His hopes and dreams

Blinded straight by the city lights
Flounder incessantly through the dark
He'll fight back the wolves 
That pray in the night
Just to carry on searching for his love

When the hook 
Reels you in
To her web of lies 
You'll realise that there's no
Place to go
You'll be six feet deep in the earth

Then your toes
Start to curl
As you find yourself in this ugly world
Without a friend
Or a Foe
Please forgive my soul
Tear my flesh and bone 
My love

Thirteen Hours

Lyrics

It’s that hunger,
That eats through your veins,
Makes your blood boil,
Though it eases the pain,
My body decays,
My heart still remains,
Close to you,
Close to you.

Don’t try to break the silence
‘Cause our wires have crossed before,
Girl you hoaxed me with false desire,
And compelled me to beg for more.

I can’t have it all,
But I need you,
Yeah I need you.

And I just want it all,
‘Cause I need you,
Yeah I need you.

The way it grips me,
It’s hard to explain,
When my darling,
You’re so far away,
On the edge that I stay,
It’s easy to pray,
When I’m on my knees,
On my knees.

Don’t try to break the silence
‘Cause our wires have crossed before,
Girl you hoaxed me with false desire,
And compelled me to beg for more.

I can’t have it all,
But I need you,
Yeah I need you.

And I just want it all,
‘Cause I need you,
Yeah I need you.

It’s that hunger,
That eats through your veins,
Makes your blood boil,
And it eases the pain,
My body decays,
My heart still remains,
Close to you,
Close to you.

I can’t have it all,
But I need you,
Yeah I need you.

And I just want it all,
‘Cause I need you,
Yeah I need you.

I can’t have it all,
But I need you,
Yeah I need you girl.

And I just want it all,
‘Cause I need you,
Yeah I need you,
I need you.

The Hunger

Lyrics

Cat-like eyes and her poison tongue,
You can hedge your bets that he’s come unstrung,
Crying in anguish at the fading sun,
Get a grip boy, what’s done is done,

Staring deep into the blue lagoon,
I’ll keep my promise girl; I’ll bring you the moon,
I won’t get tired through the sleet and rain,
Whatever it takes to forget his pain.

And I won’t be heard 'cause its falling on deaf ears.
I can’t be heard cause they’re forcing their ideals.

Constellations put her name in lights,
You better watch those fingers cause she sure can bite,
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned,
But the shameful truth is a girl forlorn.

He fucked his Girlfriend and his gloating wife,
Just to send a message, destroy his life,
Some might say he’s lost his mind,
But that ruthless cunt thinks he’s been far too kind.

I won’t be heard 'cause its falling on deaf ears.
I can’t be heard cause they’re forcing their ideals.

I won’t be heard 'cause its falling on deaf ears.
I can’t be heard cause they’re forcing their ideals.
I won’t be heard 'cause its falling on deaf ears.
I can’t be heard cause they’re forcing their ideals.

They sit alone and they pay their price,
Foaming at the mouth for that extra slice,
They didn’t pay their dues now the wells run dry,
She don’t deserve your tears, so there’s no need to cry.

Tales Of The Reckless

Lyrics

Bottom of the ninth,
Pressure growing thick,
Raise your head up high,
Gasping for your breath.

Time to ride like the lightning,
And crash like the thunder,
Live twice, never die,
Leave some for the best of us,
And some for the rest of us,
Leave that to those who try.

They’ll hold you down,
For the trials of their sins,
Old bones,
Fuel the fire from within,
I don’t know how can I,
Escape from this rut that I’m in?
Don’t hesitate, when heaven breaks
Just ride, ride ride.

Howling at the night,
Outstretched fingertips,
Scraping at the prize,
We’ve come too far to quit.

A splash of the comfort,
Will settle your nerves son,
It’s time so leave your mark,
Reach for the bottle,
Don’t swallow your pride now,
Or leave yourself behind.

They’ll hold you down,
For the trials of their sins,
Old bones,
Fuel the fire from within,
I don’t know how can I,
Escape from this rut that I’m in?
Don’t hesitate, when heaven breaks
Just ride.

Debris starts to cloud,
The embers of my mind,
Whet their appetite,
For the third and final strike.

They’ll hold you down,
For the trials of their sins,
Old bones,
Fuel the fire from within,
I don’t know how can I,
Escape from this rut that I’m in?
Don’t hesitate, when heaven breaks
Just ride.

They’ll hold you down,
For the trials of their sins,
Old bones,
Fuel the fire from within,
I don’t know how can I,
Escape from this rut that I’m in?
Don’t hesitate, when heaven breaks
Just ride.

Ride

Lyrics

Nearly gone,
The hero takes his breath,
Mounts his steed,
A stag among the rest,
The silver shines,
Chases free my fears,
Conquering the evil,
Let me be,
Let me be,
Let the light deliver me.

Cold , cold hands wrap around my throat,
Leave me, Freeze me in the dark,
There's no human signs inside,
As the cloak it feeds on all my heart.

Nearly gone,
The hero takes his breath,
Mounts his steed,
A stag among the rest,
The silver shines,
Chases free my fears,
Conquering the evil,
Let me be,
Let me be,
Let the light deliver me.

Scorch my Earth let me turn to black,
Grey me out, hollow my loss,
You kiss me, feed off my emotions,
Cease to exist, yet still remain,
This tender hearl is losing its will to fight again.

Nearly gone,
The hero takes his breath,
Mounts his steed,
A stag among the rest,
The silver shines,
Chases free my fears,
Conquering the evil,
Let me be,
Let me be,
Let the light deliver me.

Cold, cold hands wrap around my throat,
Leave me; Freeze me, in the dark,
You kiss me, feed off my emotions,
Cease to exist, yet still remain,
This tender heart is gaining it's will learn to fight again.

Nearly gone,
The hero takes his breath,
Mounts his steed,
A stag among the rest,
The silver shines,
Chases free my fears,
Conquering the evil,
Let me be,
Let me be,
Let the light deliver me.

Let me be,
Let me be,
Let the light deliver me.

Let me be,
Let me be,
Let the light deliver me.

Dementor

Lyrics

I wanna go home,
Where the meadow overgrows me,
Sink a stone into the sea,
Let an avalanche engulf me.

‘Cause I don’t belong here,
Where the shadows disappear,
Where the valleys harbour fear,
And the demons whisper...

....Sweetly,
Into my ears,
Sweetly,
Into my ears.

I wanna go home,
To a place draped in velvet,
You can lay your lonely rose,
Up upon the cold stone.

‘Cause I don’t belong here,
Where my feet can barely touch the ground,
The fibres serenade me,
And the demons whisper....

....Sweetly,
Into my ears,
Sweetly,
Into my ears.

Sweetly, sweetly, sweetly,
Into my ears,
Sweetly, sweetly, sweetly,
Into my ears.

Let the colours run,
Let the silence stun,
When the day is done,
I’m here with you.

Anti-Hero

Lyrics

Tap shoes, she moves
Like a little girl with headlights in her eyes
Exalted to the sky.

I head west I can’t see
But there’s, a little ball of light inside of me
It helps my chest to heave.

I just wanna dance with
The love of my life tonight
The love of my life tonight alone.

My darling I owe you, everything I own
I’d tear the flesh from my bone
Just to see you smile.

Intricate and fragile
With an eye for the smallest detail
You whisper my name and I fall.

I just wanna dance with
The love of my life tonight
The love of my life tonight alone.

I’m sorry I left, I should’ve waited for you
But by time I’d come to, you’d bewitched and moved
And I talk the talk, but I’m just as scared as you, as you.

I just wanna dance with
The love of my life tonight
The love of my life tonight alone.
￼

Percocet

Lyrics

Sold your sold to the devil for 15 minutes in the limelight
Silver slugs which cameoed make the breakthrough to the leading starlet
Understood by pre-disposed
Un-resisted pheromones
Mixing up your chromosomes
Weekend rockstar overdose

She was sweet, still only seventeen
My only cure, my only remedy
She held me close, told me she'd never leave
My lonely vote, my real chemistry

A rendezvous with Caballo Blanco guarantees a photo-finish
Carries gold, once found will slow, to a point where the returns diminish
Pupils spinning, head dilate
Friends you lost who cultivate
This quick fix is hard to break
Apply the pressure, tourniquet 

She was sweet, still only seventeen
My only cure, my only remedy
She held me close, told me she'd never leave
My lonely vote, my real chemistry

Seventeen (Acoustic Version)

Future Kings are a 4-piece indie/alternative-rock band hailing from Gloucestershire in the south-west of England. 

With a unique sound that draws on elements from artists such as Foals, Arctic Monkeys, Black Keys, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Bloc Party the band combines a focus on powerful vocals and infectious melodies, with coruscating guitar riffs and high-energy live performances.

Having began in 2015 under the name Muchos Tequilas Later, the band have reemerged in 2017 with a new name, line-up and a re-release of their debut EP "Ride", with a brand new single coming this Summer.
