Shorewards Music / Lyrics Chris Rollason, I Packman Running down Memory Lane Feels like I've been here before Undaunted by the empty village Landlocked forever and more I believe I have heard whispers From the sofa on which I lay But I feel like a megaton fugative Caught up in the richochet Chorus As the Canteen Bridgroom flirts with regret We shoplift the salesman as we depart the boat with their property on board I look shorewards Blasted by the guillotine tenements Nothing has a place of its own Sinless like emancipated celebrities The sociopaths harmonious psalm

The Mighty Fall Music C Rollason T Mcgee, words Tats Mcgee Spread the trails of fortune We each can find the road To build a new horizon Find our place and ride the code There's life within our dreams We each can voice our views Set them up to teach the weary Change the spoils and write the truth Oh how The Mighty Fall The Mighty Fall The Mighty Fall The Mighty Fall Bit by bit the way we change Spread the truth and break our fall We've all grown up, with how things are But how things are just kills us all Why are we fighting? Why do we hate? If we change opinions It is never too late Oh The Mighty Fall How The Mighty Fall The Mighty Fall The Mighty Fall

Baited Breath Music and Lyrics C Rollason Dam the river of truth The truth lies within not without Stop the moment of truth Am I guilty of the Ultimate Sin I have no lingering Doubt You criticise my intent I hate myself, hate myself for my descent Chorus Rape my Mind Bleed me Dry Forward I tread, with Baited Breath I changed to make you happy Alienated myself from you You made me so unhappy and in the end you made me choose I have no lingering doubt I compromised my beliefs I hate myself cos I deceived

about

Notes:

Originally recorded between January and summer 2006.

Shorewards. E had collected various spam emails over the years that contained random sentences. Chris concocted the lyrics from these.

The Mighty Fall features Cornish drummer / singer Tats Mcgee on vocals. The song was written one afternoon, when he was up visiting Rollasoc. This is possibly the only Hair Thieves song with live drums, which Tim recorded in Cornwall.

Baited Breath is the first ever song Rollasoc wrote, when he was in a band called Shallow whilst at university.
