lyrics

The way you walk into the square
and enter glass spaces
All doors are open to you up there
Take what you want and don't care

And you so high beyond compare
Is there anything to stop you now?
Don't look down
Is there anything to stop you now?

How does it feel when you look down
Could you find my face?
Are we separate
Surface bound

A shadow grows your time is done
The swollen river lies
But I won't leave you behind in dust
There's nothing left here only rust

We / We will become free
We will be / We will become
We / We will become free
We will be / We will become

A hundred arms have cut you down
Did you see my face?
Thousands of voices that scream one sound
I will be replaced

Under the river and outside time
It's too late to change
But I won't leave you behind in dust
There's nothing left here only rust

We / We will become free
We will be / We will become
We / We will become free
We will be / We will become

It's refreshing to hear a sound reminiscent of my Favourite time in MUSIC... As a music producer myself...It feels so nice to listen to quality tracks that have their own individual quality !!! robgnicholsmusicfan

Another brilliant E.P, such great music. 'Everybody Knows' is a fantastic song but each track is awesome in it's own different way. kjhayes

Sounds like the album could be in either a fashion show or a kinetic action movie from the 2010s and I mean that in a good way. Theres kind of a touch of VNV Nation in the sound as well as the stated nods. CS
