about
This one was a collaborative effort from start to finish. It started with the verse chords and melodies, written by Dave on acoustic guitar during the final session in Derby for our previous release, Albania Away. Fergus then added on a chorus and ending. We worked up a demo that was synth-poppy in feel, with lots of programmed electronic elements. When we got to the studio in Nottingham @snugrecordingco,we used these synth loops and added on live bass, guitars, drums and vocals. Finally @anniemoreilly added some sweet sounding harmonies in the sweltering July heat in @leadersoundproductions in Ballinagh.
A tune that flowed well when writing and recording. We hope you like it!
lyrics
Verse
I am the deathbed confession, a coping mechanism
A heartfelt condolence, written in the comments
Can I outrun this feeling, with my handwritten prescription
It can't be abandoned, it's my only one, yeah
Chorus
We're sketching pictures from mirrors from the ceiling to the floor
A Hall or Mirrors reflections you can't escape from
This world will spin around for forever more
The sense is senseless I know the spirit endures
Verse
These hills will always be ours to own
They're steep when you walk them alone
Just keeping taking the pills
To free me from these ills
I wanna feel like I did before
Will you take me there once more, yeah
Chorus
We're sketching pictures of mirrors from ceiling to the floor
A hall of mirrors reflections you can't escape from
This world will spin around forever more
The sense is senseless I know the spirit endures
Outro
The sense is painless I know the know the feeling is pure
This sense is helpless I know the feeling needs more
The sense is mindless I know the feeling needs a cure
The sense is endless i know feeling is sure
The sense is senseless i know the feeling is pure
