It will come as a pleasant reminder, of better days and times gone past
When you never thought of consequences, or ever hesitated to be yourself
No matter what the cost, its better to have tried and lost
But we were never lost, and you knew if you had an even shot
That you had the heart to carry on, carry on
Set fire to each new day, no matter what your head says, cos bright hearts burn out slow. As I kid I didnt care at all I just carried on, and yeah I guess years and years of that may slow you down, but carry on, carry on
The letters unopened, the true thoughts unspoken
And the heart I thought I always had I could never show to you
By the fading light of a summers night, am I going out without a fight?
I dont know what im supposed to do
Firelighting without matches, cos I know what your heart is, the brightest burning light. Illuminate the darkest paths and we`ll follow on, and years and years from now when your light dims, we`ll bring you in, we`ll bring you in
The letters are open, the true thoughts are spoken
And the heart I thought I always had I can finally show to you
By the fading light of a summers night, im not going out without a fight
I know now what im supposed to do
Every day that im waking up safe, means I wasted yesterday
I wanna feel love, I wanna feel hurt, I want the bruises and the dirt
I wanna know that i`ve aged, and grown, dont wanna get there without feeling old, I want the cuts and I want the scars, I want to reconstruct my heart
Most days, im served a reminder of the first time my burning heart dimmed
And while I`ll never die without, I know without any doubt
That nothing burns as bright, as the most beautiful light going out

Well I first listened to this a couple of times on a quiet Sunday afternoon and it really took hold - Emotionally charged songs that resonate with killer riffs that tip a hat to HDQ and Leatherface.. A real gem of a second album that will stay in my top playlist for a while! Dave Miller
Taking cues from Midwestern emo and early ’10 pop punk, this Leeds, UK outfit are full of heart— not to mention hooks. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 21, 2022
