Look at yourself; tell me a story, 
of where you’ve been & what you’ve got?
In your ancient skies, you’re only human, in your eyes,

You’re beautiful, at turning the tides of time, 
Eloquent beauty it seems to outshine your fight
of where’ve been and what you’ve got, it grates my soul

Say a word, “Clean the World”

Dawn will rise and I owe it that,
 a window child all alone with time
Waiting, patiently, it grates my soul

Say a word “Clean the world”

I know where you’ve been and what you’ve got
I know where you’ve been and what you’ve got
I know where you’ve been and what you’ve got
I know where you’ve been and what you’ve got

From The Debut Album "The Thin Thread" by Victorian Dad

Satisfaction of cause

Do you remember those nights we spent on the edge?
Edge of desires with those dreams from our bed
And if these words I write down could explain
Would there be a need for the music to remain

Cause when temptation, it gets the better of you
I think it’s your devil heart offering the thoughts you, the thoughts you can’t refuse
And I’ve learned to notice , I’m not the only one
Never tried to be something, purity of blood

Who can guess the future and what will happen in our hearts
No one, not machines, fortune tellers or cards
Just you and me, the satisfaction of cause
Just you and me and the satisfaction of cause

Feels like I’ve been dragging my soul
Through pieces of every broken home
Do you remember the satisfaction of cause?

This is the last line, I may never see you again
Holding our life line a flickering wick about to end
And just like a blue sky fills with rain
There’s a need for music to wash your sins away

And who can guess the future and what will happen in our hearts
No one, not machines, fortune tellers or card’s
Just you and me the satisfaction of cause
Just you and me the satisfaction of cause

Feels like ive been dragging my soul
Through pieces of every broken home
Do you remember the satisfaction of cause?
Feels like ive been dragging my soul
Through pieces of every broken home
Do you remember the satisfaction of cause?
Do you remember the satisfaction of cause?
Do you remember the satisfaction of cause?
Do you remember..
Do you remember..
Do you remember? The satisfaction of cause .


Satisfaction Of Cause

From the Debut Album "The Thin Thread" By Victorian Dad

Thin Thread

The Jobs are worthless and the company’s are dirt
Walking down my old street its starting to hurt
Recessions hitting hard and I lost my car
Got debts up to my eyes you don’t seem so surprised

It’s a thin thread im balancing on
A thin thread I’m hanging on
A thin thread I’ts turning you off

They say well life has its ways of making us pay
The wheel still turns in plunders of hate,
I got no more time for you at my door
Your bickering says we don’t need to rake any more

Thin thread I’m balancing on
Thin thread I’m hanging on
Thin thread is it turning you off?

I’ve been sleeping on floors and taking scores
The thin line of reality pours its not a walk in the park its seriously dark
I’m falling form my thin, thin thread

Thin thread I’m hanging on
A thin thread on balancing on
A thin thread I’m falling from

Well my body is twitching I’m heading into the storm
Recessions hitting everybody stone hard
From the top to the bottom we fly
The thin, thin thread is your third eye
Your third eye,
It’s your third eye

Thin Thread
Thin Thread

Push & Pull

The Nights quiet and full of pure distress
And the church spires backdrop of a blue sky 
The worlds crowded with one open eye, spite..
With no, intention of regrets, for ones self, over and over she flows

She pushed and pulled
She pushed and pulled

And you were the ghost under my floor
Its you , who I adored, 
And its you who shattered like glass on the floor
And its you

The highest kite, love was sweeping through the winds of change
Alone with my self in my hands I prayed
Then opportunity knocked me off my chair
Spun me around kicked me out the door out there

She pushed and pulled
She pushed and pulled

And you, were the ghost under my floor
Its you, who I adore,
And its you, who shattered like glass on the floor
And its you

Riff-

And you, were the ghost under my floor
Its you, who I adored
And its you, who shattered like glass on my floor
And its you, evaporate and get bored
Its You,
Its You,
Its You

I can usually spot who a band is influenced by . I can’t spot it with Victorian Dad.  You seem to cross a lot of genres and styles” Mike Joyce- interviewing the band for his  (New York)East Village Radio show.

I’d love to give you an idea of how they sound, compare them to another act even, but it’s just not that simple (Rock,Paper,Leeds Music Review)
