very nice song here and those drum feels are awesome

Love all the emotion you poured out into this song, this reminds me of the old MTV days, i could definitely see a music video to this!

this song is rocking hard and it's very well produced

riff city all day . . . vocals is such a treat . . . awesome song. \m/

Ya got a strong approach & down to the nitty gritty that's hella style man

love this, rocking drums, guitars really soar

Good arpeggio! Nice fat guitar mix! It sound fresh! Good singing also!

Nice vocals - both the screamed and clean. Good drum sound and bass tone. Cool guitar tone and riffs. Quality production and mix as well.

Love this, got a real early 2000’s feel to it

When it comes to beautiful things, memories don't fade...

Heading south on dusty roads
Headlights glow against the dark
I still hear your voice, I remember your words
Burning bright inside my heart

Not my landscape, not my home
I played the cards I was given
The beasts watch me from the shadows
As I avoid their suspicion

Sugar-coated suffering
(wonder what this one will bring?)
Food for the candle wick
(another song for us to sing)
Chords for pain everybody knows
(not my landscape, not my home)
Burn your heartbreak on the family coals
(don't let it show)

Heading south running just in case
Love has faded like an old photograph
Feed your heartbreak to the fireplace
Warm your grief in the candle glow

Not my landscape, not my home
I played the part I was given
The beasts watch me from the shadows
As I avoid their suspicion

Sugar-coated suffering
(wonder what this one will bring?)
Food for the candle wick
(another song for us to sing)
Chords for pain everybody knows
(not my landscape, not my home)
Burn your heartbreak on the family coals
(don't let it show)

Alternative Christmas (Credits at end)
Saturday night on go the lights 
Too many beers and a couple of fights
Taxi for 2, yeah I'm feeling alright
Christmas is nigh
Workmen on ladders decorate the town
Pushing and shoving rushing around
Cash tills ring to Christmas pounds
Yes Christmas has arrived
Christmas, all red gold and green
Alternative Christmas, it’s the scene!
Christmas card shop front, dirty old town
Karaoke singers ten to the pound
Coca cola red and white all around
Chris tingle rhymes
Ding dong last orders merrily were high
Out on your ear for a Pumpkin Pie
Polystyrene Santa’s flying through the sky 
Yes Christmas is high
Alternative Christmas, you know what I mean
Alternative Christmas, it’s the dream
And I’m crawling up the stairs on my hands and my knees
The kids think I’m Santa, won’t you help me please
Gotta think of something, what else could I do
Put on my Santa suit….
Oh no its Christmas, the drunks are all in bed
Ho ho it’s Christmas, and Santa’s on his sled
Alternative Christmas all red gold and green
So glad its Christmas, it’s the dream
So merry Christmas, so happy Christmas time
It’s Christmas time…

You know I tried to say how much these things've changed.
How much they've changed...

What a storm we've created here, love - 
What glamor does shimmer from a lie that's been cut.
Lick and you'll stick and unkempt your tongue, now.
Time heals all wounds while the high's leaving you numb

Violet, violet...
I won't let it...won't let it...go.

Streaming, flowing - high in the light.
Abandoned, freezing - colors of spite.
And so you will run - are your feet going numb?
Waiting for one to come.
What apathy spills from your tongue.
Preventing love to occur, and I know that you hurt.

Red and blue, dreams of you.
Violet at the turn of it, abandoning you.

Red and blue, dreams of you.
Violet at the turn of it, abandoning you.

They're coming back, it's coming back, they're coming back.
Vibrant shades will fade to grey. They're coming back.
Loose lipped words make terrible homes - less these lights you're all alone.

Streaming, flowing - high in the light.
Abandoned, freezing - colors of spite.
And where do you turn - does your throat start to burn?
Waiting for one to come.
What apathy spills from your tongue.
Prevent love to occur - you're in love with the blur.

Are your feet going numb?

Hello, Earth.
Addiction is a terrible thing. The modes all vary, but in some sense - they're all the same. 
Something captures someone, pulls them in, and makes them numb to everything but the high - and even that is fleeting. 
The relationships built in that environment are not built on solid foundations, they'll leave you all alone. 
I hope those that need help seek help. Help is not given for those that are afflicted, it's sought by the afflicted. 

Hope you enjoy this song and its message. 
All the best -
EP

Ogre's Laugh

With a canon’s crash and the Ogre’s laugh
The wounded shuffled in, drank their fiery gin, and so did I

In the highland grass, at the winders pass, the dreary fought the wind
As their demons did them in and so did I

So did I light the fire, burning towards my head
So did I light the fire and begin

When the marbles rolled on the burglar's soul
The badges muscled in, burned their frozen chins and so did I

Blessing drunken slurs with a five-grain cure
The dragons found the grail, they tipped the holy scales and so did I

So did I light the fire, burning towards my head
So did I light the fire and begin

You hear the chorus of the trees, they sing of things you cannot see
That the wind and the seasons are alive, and the hardest battles are the ones inside,
for life, for life

So I sing my tale of a love derailed and the cargo that was lost,
nailed onto a cross with you and I

And though we sit, in the devil’s pit, our chorus won’t be long,
'cause freedom is a song of you and "I"

So did I light the fire, burning towards my head
So did I light the fire and begin

Ogre's Laugh

i write these songs when i'm not working, it's my passion.
