They tried one time to hold it down,
You're never gonna get very far.
I hold my breath until the end,
You go back to who you are.

You'll never know if you don't try,
You've never lived 'till you've died.
I missed my train.
You'll never know if you don't try,
You've never lived 'till you've died.
I missed that train.

And all the people saw the light leave your eyes,
And then the ruler beckoned to the skies.

They tried one time to hold it down,
You're never gonna get very far.
I hold my breath until the end,
You go back to who you are.

They tried one time to hold it down,
You're never gonna get very far.
I hold my breath until the end,
You go back to who you are.

You'll never know if you don't try,
You've never lived 'till you've died.
I missed my train.
You'll never know if you don't try,
You've never lived 'till you've died.
I missed that train.

Narcissists is a independent electronic music project from Preston, Lancashire. Established in 2022, and releasing their debut album Opening Move the same year.

Opening Move, combines retro influences with an energetic, modern rock sound, not disimilar from Harry Styles or The Strokes. 

Opening Move saw some exposure upon release on Wythenshawe FM Radio, The Amos Madra Show and Amazing Radio Afternoons.

In November 2022, performing live atop an art gallery in Manchester, Narcissists made their live debut at the ABC Building, playing on the roof of the gallery in the glass amphitheatre as part of an event organised by House of Art and Heads Magazine.

Narcissists were also interviewed and featured in an article published by Blossom Magazine, an organisation also based in Manchester.

In December 2022, Narcissists performed at The Ferret, a legendary live music venue in Preston, Lancashire. Supporting popular rock band Sugarstone in a bid to save struggling venues affected by the pandemic.

In 2023, Narcissists released King's Gambit, their second studio album. The album featured a post-modern, electronically woven sound. Drawing inspiration from a wide range of electronic styles.

Dark Skies was used as the official soundtrack to popular Internet soap opera "Skew Bridge," crafted by the team from award winning playwriter Jim Cartwright.

An acoustic version of "Two Women" featuring an exquisitely beautiful cello arrangement by composer Juliette Cavendish, performed by cellist Lily Thornton, with Phil Turcio on piano-and a beautiful vocal from Bobby Flynn

Two Women-acoustic (feat. Bobby Flynn and Juliette Cavendish)

Been listening to a lot of Memphis Blues recently and was totally inspired by what I heard. I don't have the voice for this but someone out there does...

Help Me Believe

sleep

Oh, it was alright at the start.
But then you drank too much, and things just start to slowly fall apart.
And it'll be alright in the end.
And all the other bullshit coming from your friends.

Don't talk that fucking shit to me.
You know exactly how this goes.
You can't do nothing and expect things just to change.
Been down the road.
Cigarettes and Alcohol.

You got yourself some little tart.
Kidding yourself that you're so much better than you are.
They all think you're a fucking dick.
Be better if it didn't take you years to realise it.

Don't talk that fucking shit to me.
You know exactly how this goes.
You best do something if you're wanting shit to change.
Been down the road.
Cigarettes and Alcohol.

So you pour yourself another drink,
And you're gipping in your kitchen sink.
There's empty cans hidden in every hole.

And you're kidding no one but yourself.
There's no escaping mental health.
Reflection staring back all pale and gaunt.

The fun has gone it passed you by.
Old Red eyes they don't even cry.
They only get more angry at the world.

The only solution's another drink.
Another drink and, another drink.
That familiar feeling, all safe and warm.

Don't talk that fucking shit to me.
You know exactly how this goes.
Give it three days and you'll be rid of the fucking shakes.
Been down the road.
Cigarettes and Alcohol.

Cigarettes and Alcohol [2023]

Just set them up
Though I'm only seventeen.
Just set me up.
I'll take the fall.
I'll take a drink.
And I'll knock them down again.
No resolutions made here.
I'm not out for friends.

Deep is the valley where the sunlight never shows.
Deep is the chasm. 
Which you sink beneath. 
You fall so low.

Oh, set them up.
and I'll prove to you all that I.
Am the greatest.
On the pages.
That ever was.
Oh, set them up.
Sit back and watch me drown them all.
My intuition, all your judgement and my lies.
Oh, set them up.
There's nothing better to do.
You should try walking a mile in these old shoes.

Deep is the valley where the sunlights never shown.
Deep is the chasm. 
Well I'll sink right down. 
You set them up.
Watch me fall.
I'll fall so low.

I'll take that drink.
Some years since Seventeen.
You set them up.
I knock them down.
I'll take that fall. 
No giving up.
I set them up.
And knock them down.
I'm still around 
Oh, I have been through this before.

Deep is the valley where the sunlight never shows.
Deep is the chasm. 
Which you sink into. 
You fall down.
Deep is the valley where the sunlights never shown.
Deep is the bottom. 
When you sink them down. 
You set them up.
Watch me fall.
I'll fall so low.

Set Them Up

Cool

Look at you sorting through your halos.
Just as I am walking through the door.
You ain't got many words to say to me, though.
It's not getting better than before.
We must abide.
In the Cassiterides.
No, I've never caught a rabbit, and I'll never catch a rabbit with you.
Now, there's no coming back, no matter what I do.
What fools.
We were.

We don't all exist within the same world.
One in which the choices never end.
I'm sure it's lovely in your sunshine.
The grass looks pretty green from down our end.
We struggled by.
In the Cassiterides.
No, i've never caught a rabbit, and I'll never catch a rabbit from you.
The bottom rung of the ladders are simply rotten through.
Boo-hoo.
For who?

Save me.
Out here in the cold.
Your safety.
Is mostly made of gold?
Tame me?
When I'm knowingly mis-sold.
Lately.
Just sat here getting old.
Out of the fold.

You little bastards, always wanting a bit more.
Oh, there's certainly some more of what you've had.
Just poke your head above the parapet.
Quickly have a look and then just grab.
Want an easy ride?
In the Cassiterides.
Oh, you'll never catch a rabbit, and they'll never catch a rabbit for you.
Rome is built for Romans, not for you.
Not you.
Not you.

Safety?
Out here in the cold.
You'd save me?
But I dont have the gold.
Tame me?
Never in this life.
Hold me back?
What gave you the right.
Oh, the right.

Us and Them [Pink Floyd Cover]

Oh, little darling you're a spire.
Floating on wires, up high.
No getting tired.
Oh, you're still buzzing like a queen.
Like a soda stream. 
Like a losing team.

Oh, I've gotta say, you threw it all away.
Because you wouldn't count to three. 
Oh, what an awful state, as my meaning takes.
There's a line you don't cross with me. 
Cat got the cream.
Ended the dream.

Oh, little darling, you're a liar.
A soul on fire.
Crossed somewhere below the pyre.
You hid your secrets in the mire.
A slight of hand, removes the choir. 
From the outliers.
Oh, little darling how's your lows? 
A trip below.
To seek what we all know.
A month at least until you fly.
Soaring up high.
Goodbye, to all goodbye.

Oh, I've gotta say, you threw it all away.
Because you wouldn't count to three. 
Oh, what an bloody state.
Aw, the message grates?
There's a line you don't cross with me. 
Cat got the cream.
Ending the dream.

Oh, I've gotta say, you threw it all away.
Because you wouldn't count to three. 
Oh, what an awful state, as my meaning takes.
There's a line you don't cross with me. 
Cat got the cream.
Ended the dream.

Count To Three

A monkey falls down on his knees.
Looks around at his friends in the trees 
Thinks why can they all do as they please?
All the while.

An emerald grows deep in the ground.
With pressure building up all around. 
All the while just sinking down.
Right down. (down, down)

That man just the same as you.
Quietly checking the view.
A-resting in the vestibule.
Just cool. (cool, cool)

All the lonely, sedentary.
Nesting, pedantry.
Distressing, reverie.
Of soft fools.

Watch my back boy.
Have at you!
We're all swimming in the same school.
Fuck your rules.
Blah, blah, blah.

Oh, monkey in your tree.
Tell me how you keep your forest so clean.
When you're dropping all those berries.
All around. (round, round)

Like the dead man that lay on the ground.
Aren't you tired of just lounging around? 
You did never make your sound.
For Me. (me, me)

So the galaxy is the sky?
And the stars are just a-whizzing by?)
While we all live our lives.
Down below. (low, low)

An ancient prophesy.
For a tired remedy.
For a coronation scene.
Surrounds you.

Watch my back boy.
Have at you!
We're all swimming in the same school.
Fuck their rules.
Blah, blah, blah.

Watch my back boy.
Have at you!
We're all singing in the same school.
Fuck their rules. [x2]
Blah, blah, blah.

I Can’t See

Double Down Remix

First recorded in December 2022.
From the album Salt.

It's a song about the castle.

This new version was mixed and mastered by
Woods Studio Norway Mixing and Mastering 
www.soundcloud.com/woods_studio 

LYRICS

There's a castle that stands,
on a hill, above the sands,
while the people below,
hatch some plans. 
Though the fields and the trees,
are packed with stupidity.
Might be you, could be me,
naturally.

These were the ways.
That they kept you in place.
These were the ways.
Back in the days.

As the castle looks down,
ashen faced, in the town, 
oh, the people they frown,
looking down.
And they never glance up,
at these rocks they've piled above, 
piled for years, piled with tears,
piled with love. 

These were the ways.
That they kept you in place.
These were the ways.
Back in the days.

The castle surrounds, 
a cliff top, above the town, 
seabirds cry,
as they circle around 
Control has no bounds,
like a face in the clouds,
looking down at the state of the town. 

And what will we be.
For one thing, were not free.
There's a castle, 
which watches, 
you go.

It's time to come home. "Coming Home (I.M.U)" is my final single of 2024 and an homage to my progressive house roots as well as an entry in my 'post-EDM' songbook. The artwork and chord progression are inspired by my hometown of San Francisco. Can't wait to hear what you think! 🏠
