Lyrics:

Rubbish bags strewn on the mountainside
Tent doors closed all the way
Campfire burned itself out through the night
Scorched black upon grey

The prophet's voice tells me the sun will rise soon
As I gaze at the world from on high
In the shade of the mountain, our Mother today
This beautiful morning twilight

Sleepers sleep and dreamers dream
While I sit on my perch
Pastel blue is the sky that I seek
Endlessly searching

The prophet's voice tells me the sun will rise soon
As I gaze at the world from on high
In the shade of the mountain, our Mother today
This beautiful morning twilight

This beautiful morning twilight

In The Shade Of The Mountain (single version)

Lyrics:

Sleeping and dreaming, remembering African plains
Drifting on shadows, I'm visiting places and names
And I know you've been everywhere that I've been
Climbing every tree that you see, while I try
To float through the space in between

Feeling the pull of a current you know you can't fight
Drifting in colour, you're turned around backward to side
And I know you've seen everything that I've seen
Cresting every wave that you meet, while I try
To swim in the space in between

The space in between

Try to imagine what life must look like from afar
Drifting through nothing, no signpost to show where you are
And I know you've dreamed everything that I've dreamed
Outside, looking up at the stars while I stare
At the space in between

The space in between

The Space In Between

Thanks to BIMM17A and Nathanael Roman for their help arranging early versions of this song

Contains a riff borrowed, with gracious permission, from Goat's 'To Travel the Path Unknown'

Lyrics:

Pretty girl on the TV station
Says it's going to be a rainy day
Well that's just
One more reason to stick around
One more reason to stay
Just one more day and I'll be gone
Nothing you can say
I'll be gone tomorrow

So don't ask me why
'Cause I'll be gone tomorrow

She flicks through the TV stations
While we sit here in silence everyday
And something's been feeling so wrong for so long
Something's got to change
And don't ask me why but I'll be gone
I won't say goodbye
But I'll be gone tomorrow
I’ll be gone

So don't ask me why
'Cause I'll be gone tomorrow
Don’t you know
I’ll be gone
Gone

Pretty girl on the TV station
Says there's going to be a storm
Two days later I'm still
Running my brain through all of these
Games we play and replay
And it’s so easy
Why can’t it
Be so easy?
Should be so easy for me
But I just keep
Coming back
To the comfortable discomfort of
Each new day
I’ll wait another day

Gone Tomorrow

Lyrics:

Placate me
Placate me with your psychedelic whispers
Nestle me in your cocoon
And tell me that I'm special
Just tell me that I'm special

Overrate me
Tell me they just don't understand
Flash me your psychedelic smile
Too good for this world
Too good for this world

My ego
Needs your deep tissue massage
Just tell me that it feels good
Yeah, tell me that it feels good

Psychedelic Psmile

The False and the Fair present 'Another Life', the second track from their new EP The Space In Between.

https://thefalseandthefair.com

Lyrics:

Most people think about heaven
Some people talk about life
Many consider their children
What they'll leave behind
Whenever I think about heaven
I push such thoughts aside
I don't want to fear for our children
I'd rather stay blind

Another life
You're out of time
You've lost your mind
Another sun
Will be the one 
That brings the light

You don't want to know what I'm thinking
Please don't ask me why
Don't ask what I think about people
I'll only lie
Whenever I think about people
I fear for the passage of time
What's your excuse for tomorrow?
What's mine?

Another life
You're out of time
You've lost your mind
Another son
Will be the one
That brings the light
Another child
Will learn to smile
Will learn to cry
Another day
You've wished away
Another life

Most people think about heaven
Some people talk about love
Most people think about heaven
Some people talk about love
Most people think about heaven
Some people talk about love
Most people think about heaven
Some people talk about it

Another life
You're out of time
You've lost your mind

Another Life

In The Shade Of The Mountain

The False and the Fair break down one of their seven biggest hits to date, 'In the Shade of the Mountain'.

The Fat F Podcast is a new behind-the-scenes experience from TFATF, with each episode discussing a different track on their recent EP 'The Space In Between'.

This inaugural episode of the Fat F Podcast sees the guys revealing the band's secret origins, talking a lot of nonsense and accusing Glen Hansard of literal piracy.

Please enjoy!

Fat F Podcast Episode 1: In the Shade of the Mountain

Episode 2 how are ya?! This one's all about 'Another Life', the second track on our 'Space In Between' EP.

This time round we attempt an existential discussion but mostly end up making silly noises. Tommy also outs himself as the creator of one of the internet's most viral hit memes, while Adam makes an absolute Ape of himself.

Have fun!

Fat F Podcast Episode 2: Another Life

Ooh we've got a twofer for y'all today! On the EP, 'Psychedelic Psmile' segues straight into 'Gone Tomorrow' so in this episode we discuss both!

Ever wondered whether Tommy was whispering like a psycopath really low down in the mix of 'Psychedelic Psmile'? Or wanted to know how old 'Gone Tomorrow' really is? Then grab a thing and do the thing!
