Kae Tempest - OUT NOW on 70Hz Recordings! “Heads down, swallow the screen and feel images Imprint themselves. Big world, little villagers. Living the dream, dreaming of waking Who isn’t afraid of things changing?   And when it comes down to the day out, the day in The same thing, the blood rush, head racing Pacing the floors of the precinct, waiting for more But no way to believe in the cause Cos the cause fell asleep in the doorway Raw as a portrait etched on your forehead that says Life’s not a test, life’s a forfeit, pause it Catch your breath, feeling nauseous   Re-route the circuit Uproot the booged down Change is afoot, and the circus is in town Can’t hold it down anymore, it’s happening That’s why it feels like it’s all unravelling That’s why it feels like it’s all unravelling   There was, there still is We were, we will be   Hello disorientation my old friend Welcome to the days of distortion  Complex parades of illusion, charades, on course for destruction Yawn for the horseman An end is an end until it’s a beginning.  Winning We built this city on what we stole, and then it ate us whole   We built this city on what we stole   What if everything was to arrive at the moment when everything is Blown apart by the pressure of a lonely heart We took a false start as our only chance Well, history’s perpetual dance is resilience -  Heads down, swallow the screen and no sympathies Love doesn’t end when it finishes Love doesn’t end when it finishes   There was, there still is We were, we will be We were, we still are You are, you will be.“ Lead vocals by: Kae Calvert and Fraser Thorneycroft-Smith Backing vocals by: Holly Morgane Dilangu Keyboards by: Fraser Thorneycroft-Smith Electric guitar by: Fraser Thorneycroft-Smith Bass guitar by: Ben Epstein Drums by: Anthony Lewis Recorded by: Scott Barnett and Charles Bidwell Mixed by: Scott Barnett Audio equipment supplied by: Southby Productions and Solid State Logic
