Lyrics

Eyes Peeled, on Red Alert
Another crisis you need to avert
Yes I know that feels so absurd
But believe me, it's more trouble than it's worth

Guard down, been here before
Another crime scene for you to ignore
Yes I realise this means war

But you're losing your grip and you can't let go
When you run so fast but you feel so slow
And you think of every single moment in your life when you felt alive
So let it go

Take a minute and drink it in
I need to know you're receiving it
You've got this message inside your head
You're alive but you feel so dead
So dead
You feel so dead

Crash land on solid ground
Familiar face in a one horse town
The kind of place where you should turn around

But you're losing your grip and you can't let go
When you run so fast but you feel so slow
And you think of every single moment in your life when you felt alive
So let it go

Take a minute and drink it in
I need to know you're receiving it
You've got this message inside your head
You're alive but you feel so dead
Feel so dead

Take a minute and drink it in
I need to know you're receiving it
You've got this message inside your head
You're alive but you feel so
So dead

Gets Me Down

Recorded by Billy Foster at Snap Studios and mastered by James Trevascus at Bakewell Audio, the song fuses intimate verses with big anthemic choruses, charting an internal monologue of the author battling with himself and ultimately choosing life over self-destructive behaviour: 

‘You could be the enemy, I’m not - When the fever stops I just Bleed a lot - I’m not the enemy, not your enemy’

To celebrate their releases, The Lunar Keys often put their little money where their big mouths are - in support of good causes. For example, ‘Silent Ricochet’ aided the arrival of 900 trees (and counting), whilst ‘Stop This’, ‘Oxygen Type’, ‘Once’ and ‘Maniac’ raised money for the charities Nordoff Robbins, Oxygen, TheTrussellTrust and the nurses at The Royal Surrey Hospital respectively. 

The release of BLEED will continue this Lunar tradition: Inspired by recent events and, well, the song’s title, the band pledges to donate £1 for each of the first 250 airplays or reviews that BLEED receives to the Haemophilia Society. So, if you like BLEED and are good enough to play it on your show, please let us know, so that we can up the tally and big you up on our socials. 

Thanks to great DJs like your good self, previous Lunar Keys releases have enjoyed over 5000 plays from more than 400 radio stations including Planet Rock, BBC Wales, Amazing Radio and BBC Introducing, where 5 of our singles enjoyed ‘Track of the Day’.

We are deeply grateful to anyone supporting our music and always happy to do interviews or recorded intros for your show. 

And if you’d like to check us out live, we’ll always be happy to put you + 1 on our guest list, as well as donate a couple of tickets, if you’d like to run an on air competition: We’ll next be appearing live on Saturday, the 22nd of June at The Exeter Cavern.

‘The Lunar Keys greatly impress with epic alt-rock anthems and trade in strong, direct songs with memorable tunes.’ Tony Hardy, Glastonbury Festival ETC Judge

‘Brilliant, a classic feel with a contemporary twist from a band well worth knowing about.’  Stereo Stickman

And here’s some more info about the band and the release: 

The Lunar Keys are 4 anxious types from Guildford (UK) with too many tunes and nervous energy trapped in their psyches not to be in this band. The band perfected its line up in February 2020 and have had a blast ever since, honing their craft and building a dedicated following.

Previous Lunar Keys releases have enjoyed hundreds of reviews and more than 535,000 views and streams.

Lyrics: 	

Eye to eye
Yeah we're standing tall
Blood will paint the sky
Rain until we fall
If I draw your heart
Can I have it all

Fight & Scream until I dream
My jealousy is overpowering
Then it cuts

Just like I
Bleed a lot - the feeling stops
You could be the enemy - I'm not
When the fever stops - I just Bleed a lot
I'm not the enemy - not your enemy
Oh oh oh


Blinding lights
Thunder in the wind
Burning day and night
Underneath my skin

Fight & scream until I dream
My jealousy is overpowering
Then it cuts

Just like I
Bleed a lot - the feeling stops
You could be the enemy - I'm not
When the fever stops - I just Bleed a lot
I'm not the enemy - not your enemy
Oh oh oh

Open your eyes
Watch my pain run through you
Cut me like a knife

Just like I
Bleed a lot - the feeling stops
You could be the enemy

Just like I
Bleed a lot - the feeling stops
You could be the enemy - I'm not
When the fever stops - I just Bleed a lot
I'm not the enemy - not your enemy
Oh oh oh

Bleed

The Mile Road

1st single from the new mini LP 'Among the Changes' by Private Victories

last night

I’ll steady the boat, 
Whilst you gather your thoughts,
Finding the strength to steer your heart,
Away from the rocks.

But what if I can’t see a way,
through the swell?
And I know that I will,
It’s just harder to tell…

Don’t you cry yourself to sleep,
He’ll be there,
In the strength you’ll need.
I know it’s hard,
But once we raise the sail,
You’ll see,
It’s still his name in the breeze.

And I’ll be your eyes,
’Til you see past the tears.
Won’t leave your side,
Without finding the words,
That we both need to hear.

But where can I turn,
When there’s no-one to call?
And we’re nearing the shore,
But we’re taking on water.

Don’t you fall down to your knees,
He’ll be there,
As you find your feet.
I know it’s hard,
But once we raise the sail,
You’ll see,
It’s still his name in the breeze.

I think you know
