about

This is our double single recorded and released in 2007. The first two tracks were done at Couch Studios with Sean O'Callaghan, but the other two were done live at The Warehouse with James Newhouse. Technical difficulties prevented the live tracks from being as great as we'd hoped but the two studio tracks are just plain Hot!

Track Name: Trivialise (Your Life)
Light entertainment passed off as news
More about the ratings than it is the truth
Switch it off and feel yourself come to
It's time to wake up

On your feet, give yourself some space to breathe
Break free from your insecurities
They try to tell you that you've got the disease
It's all just made up

Why must your trivialise your life like this?
Why must you trivialise your life?

Fill our minds with money, sex and sport
Never mind who or why we do it for
Real life takes more than an afterthought
It's time to get up

We are the ones who hold today
We are the ones who make the change
We are the ones who have the say
It's time to speak up

Why must your trivialise your life like this?
Why must you trivialise your life?
When will you open your eyes to all of this?
When will you open your eyes?

When it's dark and it starts to get cold
When we're lost and we're feeling alone
Will there be one who would hear our cries?

Or would they walk on by?
Would they just pass us by?
Just like we pass them by, avoid their eyes,
oh would they walk on by?
Track Name: Lay Down Your Guns
Lay down your guns
What are you fighting for?
All that was won
Was already yours
Lift up your heads
what are you crying for?
It's not over yet
It's the battle not the war

Take it, take it or leave it
Take it, take it or leave it
Take it, take it or leave it all

Lift up your eyes
It's there for all to see
It's not by disguise
That we're deceived
Don't turn away
From all you know you saw
It's yours to take
What are you waiting for

Take it, take it or leave it
Take it, take it or leave it
Take it, take it or leave it all

Take it, take it or leave it
Fake it until you believe it
Make it up as you go along

Lay down your guns
What are you doing here?
In perfect love
There's nothing to fear
Lift up your head
This is no time to mourn
It's not over yet
It's the dark before the dawn
