(IT’S A) WORLDWIDE WEB

In the worldwide web I am caught, like a fly,
I’m dust in the eye of the storm.
In the mother-tongue I’m a verb in a cypher,
A day in the life o’ someone.
I’m just a microdot in the microcosm.
A chip in the circuit.
A fish in the ocean.
In a gramme I’m a kilo.
A fraction of zero.

Close your eyes and stand out on the edge.
Hold your breath or you’ll be left for dead.

In the worldwide web.
It’s a worldwide web.

In the scheme of things I’m a germ of an idea.
A worm on a hook.
A word in a book.
I am the hole in the whole wide world.

See, I’m just a microdot in the microcosm.
A chip in the circuit.
A fish in the ocean.
In a gramme I’m a kilo.
A fraction of zero.

Close your eyes and stand out on the edge.
Hold your breath or you’ll be left for dead.

In the worldwide web.
It’s a worldwide web.

In the worldwide web I am a molecule.
A worm on a hook.
A word in a book.
A chip in the circuit.
A fish in the ocean.
I am the hole in the whole wide world.
In a gramme I’m a kilo.
I’m just a fraction of zero.

Close your eyes and stand out on the edge.
Hold your breath or you’ll be left for dead.

In the worldwide web.
It’s a worldwide web.

You’re caught like a fly.
You’re trapped in the wire.

MAKING PROGRESS
Blocked out the sun
Pulled his shadow down
Hauled a cortege
And drawled into town

Hounds howled
At his bloodsucking horde
The daybreak bell didn’t ring
No more
Birds fell down from the sky
Sky that wept
Rivers
Still ran dry
When he spoke
Fire and smoke
Burned through the holes
That had formed beneath
His worthless soul.

Laid his hand
On land that lay down dead
Like vampires by day…
And night was red
With the blood of thousands of his victims.

The whole wide world
Fell asleep in his wake
All he would keep
Was all that he could take -
No more
No lessons did he bring
Sirens songs he would sing
They would whisper in the wind
Like flies.

Laid his hand
On land that lay down dead
Like vampires by day…
And night was red
With the blood of thousands of his victims.

Bombs, mines
And minds blew.
Making progress,
He pushed on through.

An extended mix of Dolll’s brilliant song.
Full length video still to come soon. Keep a look out.

Lyrics below:

LAST DECEMBER
There’s been a dead cockroach at the top of our stairs for two months and, frankly, I still (don’t) give a damn. When I’m done sleeping this year, the only task worth setting is to move the couch, my dear, and find the bullet we lost beneath it last december.
I still don’t have a job and there are still five pieces missing from the puzzle that we started last week.

A true story.
Pretty much a straight rock track.The title was a bastardisation of Jack Palance’s sneering line in the movie ‘Shane’ just before he cold-heartedly shoots Tory dead in the mud outside Grafton’s then slowly skulks off, smirking.
Steve Chapman Smith produced, played organ and sequenced.

Never mind those snaithlicious guitars, listen to these lyrics, listen to that voice. I defy you not to love both.

Cut You Down

V1
If life cuts off your tongue, Darling,
I swear that I will speak for you…
But until that day has come,
I miss your voice

CH
Unrested, restless mind,
there is no solace in this pin-drop hush,
Your parted lips then, like a fish,
a strangulated sound…
And fear, perhaps was I who cut you down…

V2
Some time ago, your voice did waft
in, round, between us…
A beacon for the blind,
Oh, how it sustained…us

CH
Unrested, restless mind,
there is no solace in this pin-drop hush,
Your parted lips then, like a fish,
a strangulated sound…
And fear, perhaps was I who cut you down…

BR
Yet, since I found my feet…my self to speak…
You have not made a…sound
But you should know, My Mute…despite…
They ring, still ‘round my head, often…quite…

CH
Unrested, restless mind,
there is no solace in this pin-drop hush,
Your parted lips then, like a fish,
a strangulated sound…
And fear, perhaps was I who cut you down…
And fear, perhaps was I who brought you down…
