what a fantastic way of mixing in the vocals - the message comes across very clearly, too

love the beat - really great stuff - such a good listen, too!

I'm certainly no atheist... but you can count me in on the initiative to declaw religion√

There’s something in the words you say
That makes me want to be with you
There’s something in the way that you love
That makes me want to see it through

When you are sinking
You’re not thinking
(Oh, yay, Oh, yay, Oh, yay, Oh, Oh yay yay x2)

When something isn’t right
(something, isn’t wrong)
When something isn’t wrong
When it’s taking you over
(taking you over)
You’ve got to be smart
(got to be smart)
You’ve got to be bright 
(got to be bright)
(Or you’ll live your lie)
When you are sinking
You’re not thinking

Hustle up now,
Carry your eyes
Don’t walk, run
Something wicked this way comes

There’s something in the words you say
That makes me want to be with you
There’s something in the way that you love
That makes me want to see it through

When you are sinking
You’re not thinking
When you are sinking
You’re not thinking

Never change your mind
Never change your mind
Always change your mind
Always change your mind
Never change your mind
Never change your mind
You should always change your mind
Always change your mind
Always change your mind

Words You Say (with Mark Duffield)

Method

Hope

Pick Up the Stars (Duffield) 23

Take off your makeup
Peel off the grain
Pick up the stars
Pick up the stars

Don’t you stop
Keep on running
(Riding)
Oh don’t you stop
Don’t you stop 
(Keep riding)

Pull the light cord
Push the tab
Hold the rail
Cross the flags

Sing for England
Cornwall too
Drink for everyone
Mostly you

Across the bay
Many many many miles away
See a crescent moon
Reflected in a field of poppies bloomed

Take a step into this vision, soon
Grab a flower and throw it at the moon

(YOU)
Don’t ask me how you’re gonna get there soon
(Don’t ask me, don’t ask me, do)
(YOU)
You might as well throw a flower at the moon

Throw a flower, a flower, at the moon
Throw a flower, a flower, at the moon

Save our wrecks
Oh then, say the best
Get it off your chest
Just another shipwreck

Another shipwreck
Get it off your chest
Another shipwreck
Get it off your chest

Poppies (with Mark Duffield)

Lyric:
You know it's nothing
Save me..
From those who pray

See the fishes on the line
They are fasting
They're saying goodbye
See them moving, taking fire
They are the daises
They are the gods of nothing
Nothing that's worth anything at all

(not worth a single thing, not worth anything, aint worth nothing at all)

You can shoot the day by merrily dancing
You may be making up, by waking up my senses
I offer love to God, I offer everything, I give you all of my love 
I don't see why I should.. 
Hold my hands behind my back, make my steady legs run true
Take my fears & still the pain
& sweep it under the carpet
The rug or the mat

god doesn't exist my friend
it's a construct of man to put away the demons
god doesn't exist it's true
& i'm talking to you, the one who is believing
(Genesis, Sunday School, 4 yrs old)
(this morning, playing with cars, for the very first time, you realised that you, yes you, will die too)
(& Science does not lie, so, no matter how bright your star, you, yes you, will die too)
