Fading Lights EP

The Dark

Riding On Sunshine

Northern light, 
Won’t shine on me tonight,
They took away our orange blaze,
And the perfect grey haze. 
Investment folds,
As the ember grows cold,
A metaphor to break the fall,
Took it like carbon from coal.

So what’s left today?
From what your grandad used to say?

There were lights,
Once upon a time,
When we were all the leaders of the world.
And we would shout, 
Hey, look at the south,
Before they took the bread out of our mouth.

Warmest glow,
They said you just worked ‘too slow’,
Redundancy of half the fee,
That you used to know. 
It’s like a balcony of broken dreams,
Where stained white shirts and skinny jeans,
Used to be in clubs at members fee, 
When we had money.

Now textbooks show,
In our people’s history,
We let it go. 

But it was taken all so slow,
I long to be a leader of the world. 
Or at least my world,
From the doorstep to the curb,
I long to be a leader of the world.

You can ask anyone,
Living apart there’s two,
Britains. (X2)

Old Man North,
This one’s for you.
Standing tall beside the industry you knew. 
These old streets remind me of the view from the beach,
We will find victory in our defeat.

They don’t see, 
Because if they did they would believe,
That there were lights…

Once upon a time.
When we were all the leaders of the world.
There were lights,
Fuse and ignite,
When we were all the leaders of the world.

You can ask anyone, 
Living apart there’s two,
Britains (x2)

"All I'm trying to say is that we've got two sides,
There's always the truth and the alibi.
Oh darling, eyes were made to lie,
There's always the truth and the alibi"
