Ben Christophers has come along way since his humble beginnings in Wolverhampton. With two critically acclaimed albums under his belt ‘My Beautiful Demon’ and ‘Spoonface’, he is back and set to woo the critics and fans once again with his third offering the beautiful and seductive new album, ‘The Spaces In Between’, which is due for release on 13th September 2004. ’The Spaces In Between’ shows Ben in a new light. “This is the most upbeat and optimistic record I’ve written”, explains Ben. “The biggest difference between this one and my two previous albums is that I had so much material written, I had a really clear feeling for the sound because of it.” Written and recorded between the Summer of 2003 and early 2004, it also marks the first time that Ben hasn’t worked with producer/artist David Kosten of Faultline. “I had been writing for a while and would go and see David every now and then and show him what I was doing. He gave me a lot of advice on where to go, but there was a point I realized our paths weren’t going to cross this time, he was busy with his label Tiny Consumer and new album and I was ready to get started it just unfolded that way this time, but who knows I hope we work together again.” During the recording of ‘Spoonface’ Ben met Cenzo Townshend, (Graham Coxon, Blur, Datsuns, Cranberries, Echo and the Bunnymen) Cenzo has a mobile studio which he had been putting together for a while. “I took him my demos and he really liked the straight forwardness and understood what I was trying to do. We hired this house in Suffolk right by the sea and he took his Studio down and we spent about three weeks putting it in to shape.” Drawing influences from David Bowie (I love the way he moved between moods from album to album), Kate Bush (“the way she used strings on ‘Hounds of Love’, they just bounced on the beat, it’s genius.”) Prince, Edith Piaf and Nina Simone. Ben played and arranged just about everything on the album, recording the guitar and vocals at the same time, adding the other instruments afterwards. Ben has also been writing with the French chanteuse Francoise Hardy. The track will feature on her new album ‘Tant de belles choses’, “I wrote her a letter’ says Ben, ‘it took me ages to get the wording right and not sound like a stalker - I mean - what do you say? We hope to do more together in the future too.” Ben began writing songs at the tender age of five when his father gave him his first guitar. “I think I saw songwriting as an escape when I started, like fantasy, infact I still do he says. My first song was in E-minor and lasted for about 30seconds. It was an awesome feeling recording it on to this old reel-to-reel tape I had, I was completely fascinated by it and used it until it stopped working.” He graduated on to the piano when his grandmother installed one in the family home. Much to his parents’ horror, Ben was only interested in how to detune it; “I fell in love with the way it rattled and choked, I thought I'd found the Devil…” Ben's first job after leaving school, was working in a factory that distributed pornography. “I met some of the most inspiring people ever, it was so bleak and so depressing” he explains. “There were people who were on the run, just out of prison. I was kind of taken under their wing, because I was obviously completely out of my depth and so young. I think they thought I was a bit posh. I stuck it out for about a year but I had to leave.” Ben emerged on to the music scene in 1999, with a series of low-key solo shows underneath a pizza parlour in the West End of London. Each night, the shows were rammed, the audience riveted by his performances of irresistible fragility and passion. Shortly afterwards he signed to V2 releasing two albums, which was followed by extensive touring in the UK, Europe and Australia. Ben signed to Cooking Vinyl for the world in early 2004. Which brings us neatly back to where we started. The Spaces In Between is compulsive listening. From the sweetly sinister ‘Flowers Drink Upon The Ground’, and the shimmering simplicity of ‘Devil To Kill’, to the laid back, happy-go-lucky feel of ‘Good Day For the Hopeless’, and the mesmerizing ‘Riversong’ the album resonates with life, passion and emotional genius.

My Beautiful Demon
My beautiful demon I remember you in cine film The sunshine always burst the cloud The smell of cut grass fills the sky Just like the birds of mid July I remember you in cine film I fell in love to easily Sometimes we stayed up through the night Walked through the streets electric light My beautiful demon my beautiful demon Flood lit veins and I enhale you I'm missing the sweetest ghost Killed with silence Feels like I am Missing the sweetest ghost I remember you in cine film The way you ran to catch me out Do you think about it to On days like these I think of you My beautiful demon My beautiful demon I remember you in cine film My beautiful demon
Give me everything Bring down All the shade that blinded The baby stars and eyelids Under the cinema sky Maybe We're to blame And maybe we're not the same but surely We're as god intended I hope your catching your breath On a mountain somewhere I hope it's all you thought it was I hope your somewhere out there With waves like white horses Days like these force me to miss you I think I will always be Maybe We're all the misfits lifted Uneasy from it real life Swallowed you up whole Bring down all the shade And give me everything Real like swallowed you up whole I hope your catching your breath In a moment shared On a mountain somewhere For the sweet here after I hope it's all you thought it was Heaven knows your name I hope your somewhere out there Wake up Slowly early morning Days like these I miss you I think I always will I think I always will
Before the winter parade Sails her blue eyes over you Savour the springtime of our kiss Souls worn blind by sweetheart cures in Just like lovers do Taste your skin still on my lips And still I feel you move The subway darkness will never strike Those sevenths in me again All along we played down our love Hold onto my heart if we jump Then you'll be my sweetheart solely Joining long embrace Then you'll be burning my courage Like the holy ghost Just like sweethearts do At the spring time of their love Your breath's so warm on my lips I can almost hear you think On a freezing cold november But it's warm in the pools of your eyes Steel hearts turn to stone Are we clear How we feel Shall we spill All that rain on those Steel hearts turn to stone Just like sweethearts do At the springtime of their love Just like lovers do
Stay I'm thrown it's like your still here In among my heart I'll always sleep on my side Even though your gone All we tear is each other Stay Love will weave the deepest stitch Don't cry your underwater smile Just stay The silence is unbroken Draws upon my lips I'll be the one that let you down
It's been a beautiful day It's not the way The day draws in that I think this Or the way stones sink Lower than the clouds sending ripples through the air Autumn leaves pave the park But you still remember The colours of summer green Your sweetest heart Seems so unaffected by the things that kill It's been A beautiful day Even after the rain It's been A beautiful day Even after the rain You must be made Of steel Jane Where's the peace in all that strength and wisdom going Eternal life Maybe that's my liberation Something to belong to Your sweetest heart Seems so unaffected by the things that kill It's been a beautiful day
Sunday
There maybe more to this I don't know I only got here Whatever you feel I'm sure you'll be the only one Truth is I've never felt sure until right now All too much too soon how can I Get by without Can't wait To see you after sunday Because your smile is shining Like a razorblade Don't say See you after sunday Because it seems too long to Waste away the time There maybe more to this I don't know i only got here What ever you feel I'm sure you'll be the only one I hear you feel The same way how can I escape without you Healer
Big yellow eyes Strung up like flies from the moon He's looking at you don't let him catch you Sends a shiver like a spinning top rage down the spine I clear the dark clouds and you're the best thing ever You're the best thing, you're the best thing Healer save me
Remote control Draws in the rocket tails and wonders why Steel strung nerves still creak When the wind blows Switch the sound off and step off the train Keep walking until you're free again Remote control From the pale parade All the souls caught on shirt tails Stepping over the subways blood stream Racing hounds and turnstile Caught like butterflies in sellotape Keep flapping until you're free again Remote control Step away you know it's easy to deceive You'll sink so fast you'll have no time to breath The time bomb seeks its way into the soul When the bow breaks Tin soldiers fall Remote control Round and round and round and round Remote control The pale parade All the souls caught on shirt tails And they sway Turn the sunshine on it must be time for love But do the sinking needs dissolve the will to love again I found a better way to hold the things I need While open-ended heads deceive what they believe Remote control
Always Racing down the alleyways The summers here I hope she stays forever Winter froze the pond this year With spiky rain In silence from the fall The sky has turned to cellophane This is the best time of the year I held you on the longest day To make the most To make it stay Always
Skyscraper Yearning lately Unguided desire I've been burning until now I clear You clear we break like bones Courage shared us I'll sail this ship alone Goodnight silver star Goodnight angel's eyes From the skyscraper The world turns out of sight Electrified into submission Kissing slowly in love Skyscraper

Leaving My Sorrow Behind Birds flying down Come the morning Wakes you up under the sky Leave my sorrow behind It only weighs me down I feel so bad inside Birds flying home Come the morning Raise you up under the sky Leave my sorrow behind It only weighs me down I feel so bad inside Tell me why Lord I must learn how to cry Before I can see where I'm going Lord why does my sorrow make me feel so good A new day dawns Loneliness has been silent enough 'round here Sunlight blinds our eyes Everything is coming home to stay for good this time Tell me why Lord I must learn how to cry Before I can see where I'm going Lord why does my sorrow make me feel so good Birds flying home And I'm leaving my sorrow behind The Stream When you drove your car into the stream That was weird you seemed so phased by it In a moment your life turns Like a carousel inside When you found your daddy's heart in you All those things you hated were your cross In a moment your life turns Like a carousel inside Bring on new soul Can't escape it Can't reply For today Down she goes and glitters as she moves Strands of hair on water burned your eyes Bring on new soul Can't escape it Can't reply For today When you drove your car into the stream Falls Into View Falls into view And you find it's not the right way round Unfolds a stare I'm homeward bound And draws on tomorow Deep city soul Does she walk with you between the aisles You're flying high over the groves Devils heart is broken All that we are We cried ourselves dry Everyone sees The sweet light of change Night time came in hooded cloaks Slides through starlight and eyelids A crushing smile into me goes The last wish Falls into view Transatlantic Shooting Stars Fallen angel in the crowd Drags her heels over the noise Lays down at the roadside of regard A canyon in my broken mind Echos deep inside the vale There's dustcarts for the dead birds in the trees Trans-atlantic shooting stars over mainline Here they come suburban gods To bless desire Heaven hopes you find her here The raincatchers The devils blades There's karma for the misfits of our times Take this really you take my soul Take me down when you laugh I fall All this pity has broken me But my survival lies with me I'm going to love you as best as I can I'm going to hold you close when I tremble I'm going to love you as best as I can I'm going to see you rise I won't ever let you fall out of my senses Fall out of my own hands No I won't ever let you let you Will I find my way home? Hooded Kiss A deep river flows of weathered sins and weathered souls A kiss a hooded kiss in the seeds of desire So grief heavenly grief my love you're bringing to me But you've got shipwreckers eyes and all a cutting stingray smile I heard the wind has blown a blessed lie and lovers pains Over streets and wires underneath alien streams So sweet heavenly sweet my love you're bringing to me But you've got shipwreckers eyes and all a cutting stingray smile A river flows Of weathered souls But I can see shipwreckers eyes And all that cutting stingray smile A kiss a hooded kiss for the one I love I crossed a lonely road a beggar with sullen clouds in my head And these lines in my face for every tear you're away So sweet heavenly sweet my love you're bringing to me But you got shipwreckers eyes and all a cutting stingray smile A river flows Of weathered souls But I can see shipwreckers eyes And all that cutting stingray smile A kiss a hooded kiss for the one I love Sweet heavenly sweet bringing my love you're bringing to me But you've got shipwreckers eyes and all A cutting stingray smile Easter Park Racing into town Bicycles in line In your raid In your raid I was Crazy inner feeling flows in here I'm a child sweet liberty Heaven knows you thrilled them too You raid my senses sunny vale Am I really safe with you If I dont know you I dont know myself Heaven knows you thrilled them too You raid my senses sunny vail We'll never fade apart Evergreen and everclear Welcome in those sunny days Heavely in Love Even if it's getting dark Pretty one we'll stay home Heaven knows you thrilled them You raid my senses Songbird Scapes The Sky Racing into town Bicycles in line In your raid In your raid I was Crazy inner feeling flows in here I'm a child sweet liberty Heaven knows you thrilled them too You raid my senses sunny vale Am I really safe with you If I dont know you I dont know myself Heaven knows you thrilled them too You raid my senses sunny vail We'll never fade apart Evergreen and everclear Welcome in those sunny days Heavely in Love Even if it's getting dark Pretty one we'll stay home Heaven knows you thrilled them You raid my senses Spoonface Honey swept away her skin Oh my god they're lining up Spoonface Jesus spitting rhythms Sweet abandon smells expensive Eat each finger eat each other Watch myself there on the bed Oh my god you're ugly now Suck me from the outside in I have changed my reflection Hollow deep the food's so pretty Silence is deceiving me Close your mouth she is the victim Honey swept away her skin Watch myself there on the bed Watch myself they're lining up Have you everything you need Oh my god you're ugly now Spoonface Jesus spitting rhythm Oh my god you're ugly now Watch myself there on the bed I have changed my reflection Hollow deep the food's so pretty Silence is deceiving me Close your mouth she is the victim Spoonface Jesus spitting rhythm Eat each finger eat each other Watch myself there on the bed Sweet abandon smells expensive Oh my god they're ugly now Oh my god you're ugly now Oh my god Honey swept away her skin Spoonface Jesus....Spoonface Jesus spitting rhythms Watch myself there on the bed Losing Myself The trees are swaying in their pink noise up on the hill Today's the day to remember always It's three o'clock and the sun is as warm as warm can be And I hear the church bells over the city As if by magic you and me were there again Then I remembered how you smiled if I was mocking you Someone's playing music And it's swimming from that window sill We stood there listening But I was thinking more about holding your hand What does it all come down to I'm losing myself There's scissors for voodoo in my mind I'm doing it my way I'm doing it my way The record player plays a lost soul for everyone And all the sirens fill the dead street thrillers Bring out the freak shows and the loveless for tomorrows news And I heard the church bells over the city And I said Are you shading in my mind? What does it all come down to I'm losing myself There's scissors for voodoo in my mind I'm doing it my way I'm doing it my way The Opium Willows Did you see the lights it feels like the air has shivered With electric eyes shall we stay in tonight It's all the rage are you drawn to a place you're scared of It's all the same if you're drawn to a place at all A veil was thrown over the graves And sunlight twists herself into the kite strings It's all the rage are you drawn to a place you're scared of It's all the same if you're drawn to a place at all And it burns in his heart Don't fear tomorrow Burns in his heart Don't fear tomorrow comes The table lifts underneath the seance And eyes are strung out like daisy chains Through all the withered leaves in doorways We walk these floors but never alone It's all the rage are you drawn to a place you're scared of It's all the same if your drawn to a place at all Did you see the lights She ran across the sky Among it's dials a heart sinks Don't fear tomorrow comes
The Spaces in Between
Flowers Drink Upon The Ground
Flowers drink upon the ground In the story of nature Queer as folk they think there's gold In those rugged streams But it's been dry for years And they sway like empty clothes In soulless avenues And they wind on like the roads Until the rains became their eyes The boy who belonged to no one else but himself And those darling beasts became your friend So bless the girl who took me away It's those diamond eyes It's all I could take She smokes a smile like nothing I've seen Makes the wind wind over all the dark days Blow down the secret ship of despair For all to find a place to believe in Everyone's missing someone Everyone's missing something And still I don't know why a bee stings and dies And yet it's wasps I hate Why does money matter so And people look for ufo's The books are dying from disbelief They are the poses at the road side Love is sabotage you tasted blood You had it coming for years And years And you sway like empty clothes In soulless avenues And it winds on like the roads Until the rains become their eyes For all of time Lord I've been foolish forgive me Lord I fucked up forgive me Forgive me Lord I've been foolish forgive me
Good Day For The Hopeless
Let me find it in my head Me i'm hazey hesitatin instead I only find sense in the wilderness Dialing zeros to operate my mind I only find sense in the chaos Dialing out to get away from here What a good day for the hopeless So i'm lazy yes i'm down What a great day what a good day There's no one else around The highway drones like belly aches All these road bend Deviate I only find sense in the wilderness Dialing zeros to operate my mind
Everybody Stood To See Us
Rip out time from the clock No one keeps up with the hands anyway Walked a lonely street Of skeleton grins A needle full of empty things But all along we were ok Everybody stood to see us And everyone agreed We lit up like the stars And everybody stood to see us land And everyone believed We lit up like the stars Wireless words Float through space A happy vale for all the dreams And all the ones who want to know Soundless waves rolled over us Thought we were going down like stones But all along we were ok All along we were ok
River Song
She came round here like ravens Little diamonds on water There's blood on your lips Kissed by the ruin glow of your lust Captured in your arms Dead city dreamer Creep from your hair like vultures do Deep inside your skin Ride pretty shadow Finger tips crawl from you Wrecking ball swings over us eye's shut Bicycle spokes Innocent spin As lonely as addiction you're it Tenderness lost
The Drinking Tree
There's a hiss from the highway Snakes her hips into everybody's ears Don't think i've heard silence for years And i could have sworn i saw you Walking down the cobbled stones Beneath the leaning trees yesterday I know you sailed away some time ago But we come here to listen to you comfort us With your lullaby Underneath the drinking tree We sail away with our friends The cemetery is alive tonight The disappeared the gruesome and the strays We are invisible ink As beautiful as you now There's a sound in your voice There's a place in your everlasting words Yet i don't have a clear belief Yet i could have sworn i heard you sing to me From my headphones deep into my head like pill We listen closely
A Race Between Me And Forever
It's you You scared me half to death What for It's just a race between me and forever I was on my ten speed all the way I faced Myself and saw no one Just time The little minute hand twisting my arm Like she knows what I'll be And you aim to the sky to the sky Where the end has no ends and no return And you aim to the sky to the sky A lonely carousel Do you Think it's suicide That she has a jealous side all over you Running down a hill backwards I faced Myself and saw no one Just time The little minute hand twisting my arm Like she knows what i'll be when i die A lonely carousel winds on
Fake Eyelash
Inside a rolling stone I look for you Inside a stolen thief I listen closely Murdered by yourself No one else Like a fake eyelash I lie to myself A moon is shining high above your way home A vampire on your mind drinking the water That falls from your eyes and your heart When will she notice me and no one else Like a fake eyelash I lie To myself I lie that she loves me
A Devil To Kill
I've got dumb blues over you and I'm godless suddenly I don't have anything you need I've got these bones under me And i want to find a cure for time Before it's time for me Why am I beating myself up I've got a devil to kill Why am I beating myself up I've got a devil to kill Come back honey come back I'm aching for you But i was the one who let you go Aint that always the way Aint that always the way It's the sunshine after the darkest day My eyes are too big for my belly I've got these bones under me My eyes are too big for my belly I've got these bones under me Aint that always the way Aint that always the way It's the sunshine after the darkest day Why am I beating myself up I've got these bones under me and i want to find a cure For time before it's time for me
Where The Road Bends
A blade of grass in the sand I knew someone just like you A wondering eye among us all We turned to daisy chains Only where the road bends Seeing what tomorrow brings I hear you in the strumming I hear you in the place I Live And you my Love I lost to faith And I lost myself in a long glass I knew a boy who cut out his pain But all that flowed was madness
Spaces In Between
Between the devil and the deep blue sea I'm craving what i don't want daggers are temptation in my bones I'm sure he knows my name He says praise you boy Come with me This is where black flowers grow I am the spaces in between The dark and light And and all those funny dreams you get I know you fear me But i belong to those on the other side I don't know why you came Umbrellas flick to black birds here I don't know where this is From outer space we fly We know not where we go From outer space we turn for ever more He said bless you child roam with me Follow the sun Look up and follow the sun And please don't be afraid of me

Trashed dictaphone blues
My body shakes like a tree Swirling leafs burst from my head I'm a wanderer like my father wanders too So it makes me happy when i hear you are singing Like a swallow in the sound In the deep night of your singing The root of your sorrow is that boy and it's me The root of your sorrow is that boy and it's me I saw a whirlwind shaped knife In the dream i was the killer Then the roots of the tree Grow right up around me To become part of a drawing And walk inside the picture Through all the silent cities All i was then A ghost behind the glass The root of your sorrow is that boy and it's me Like a fly to my wounds Like a fly to my wounds Burning sun
In a lazer gun ray she approaches me Pushing through my chest You thought it was the end But you'd just begun Like all the massive tree's That cut into the sky I wonder what it's like I wonder what it's like You will always find the burning sun From submarines On the deepest deepness I could see you drift You thought it was end But you'd just begun Like all the dead birds Still singing in my mind You will always find a way Even if it's gone You will always find the burning sun Where were you When it all came down like the rain Light the way on a silent sea From the pains You will always find the sun Even if it's gone Drifting stone
Like dreams The ones you can't describe These lines Not drawn yet they exist The world is like a drifting stone These pains The ones you can't quite find Like screams And how you learn to hide them away The world is like a drifting stone Like screens That tell us what we need Yet all i really need is you These roads Unseen yet i have walked Like streams that flow in through our lives The world is like drifting stone And i am like a drifting stone Darkness of days
Strange waters flow Beauty is so deranged As warped as dirty snow Can the horror make me sane Why do the birds stand in line on the wire Why is the taste so sweet when you're gone I've never seen an elephant I've never seen new york But i kissed a boy from my street I broke my heart at your feet Why do the birds stand in line on the wire Why is the taste so sweet when you're gone I think i have seen the darkness of days The sweetest taste is of you Martian
Darling martian is your heart low Senses fire Pierced by the music we love These are our days Can you feel it come ? Tattoed by the things we love All that shines Can you feel it come ? Starling
Disinfect me from myself All twisted like my mind Ever been so broken hearted Ever felt you never made a start on this road When she told you you were beauty Underneath the earth was blowing deeply glowing A happy smile like a baby grows All the grass twists round your feet Pulls you deep beneath the ground Oh down we go Like a doomed ship To all the dreams you got Everybody is like a starling Everybody is like an eagle Sometimes we are deadly vicious Sometimes we are massive giants To all the dreams you got Youmyloveforyou
We face the same way out of the box Time trickles endless A cork screw dive out of my mind into my room If we change much more than this Will we survive All the flys in spiderwebs Fidgeting like they never sleep You are in my dreams Burning right through Is somebody out here That day we thought we had escaped Slipping through the cracks in the pavement We were like paper planes But this ond't exist Not like this This don't exist You are in my dreams Burning right through MyloveforyouMyloveforyouMyloveforyou... Nightmonster
From a robot dance and a shuffeling walk Got stream that runs into a musical sea Come alive like a seed growing fast I got a better place for my baby and me Leave me alone i'm a tiny plastic plastic creature I got my shoes I got my place in this place now I came from you You're falling from my sleeves like confetti and silent snow Trickle little horror nightmonster knows How those night stories go Got to find a better place for my baby and me Leave me alone i'm tiny plastic creature
Ben Christophers
They Make Sparks With Their Claws From a reel to reel I listen close Push my hand up to the speaker Good vibrations running into me Got a pushbike called the vindeck Taped my radio to the crossbar To hear the bands we loved to sounds of our wheels Fell in love with a girl who leaned against a red brick wall In one day disappears from this world I've had gladness on my tongue I catch like snow when I was your flag I've seen time end things Unleash them dogs of love They make sparks with their claws Well your daddy was in a dark place when he left you for depression Leaves a little spy glass in us all some days And your momma's the gentle breeze among the whirlwinds tail You see heaven when she smiles In the garden a silver birch tree slightly leaning to the right In my memories the leaves were shimmering gold I've been pulled beneath the surface like a spy into the night And I�ve kissed the mouth of happiness and grief Unleash them dogs of love They make sparks with their claws These Are The Days If I was a vicar I would help One's in need, be so wise In my house there'd be a wooden horse A loving fire in November And if I was an old man I would lean Under the weight of my stories At the gates of my garden I�d stand Wishing well It's only in my mind Only in my mind These are the days These are the days We set controls for the heartless sun I don't know what it means but I have longed for it If I was a murderer I would be merciless Oh so calm I would wear a cape upon my back And forever more it would follow me Let us find the sun Bodies turn to dust I don't know what it means But I long for it It's only in my mind Only in my mind These are the days of milk and honey We set controls for the heartless sun Don't know what it means But I longed for it Nobody Knows You don't stop Trying to take down All that chimes in my life I don't know why It does my head in That you don't see it You don't see it You celebrate Nobody knows the trouble that's been This feeling of loss Becomes a circus white elephants We slowed down Passed the street fight Tempted by all the ugliness You are peeking over your seat And I hate it, I hate it You think you know me Nobody knows the trouble that's been This feeling of loss becomes A circus of dust for all of us Snow Won't you do something for me Let the silence between us remain I love the smell of the first morning coffee But it don't taste the same Like the freshly fallen snow And how it reaches into my happiness It would surely make me freeze If blackness rows across my vision Lord give me the courage for all my children I have stood at the gates of hell And learned of the fire that burns in me But it don't taste the same Like the freshly fallen snow And how it reaches into my happiness It would surely make me freeze Circle If I could hold you in my arms Make you surrender kindly Would be the best thing howling river We are the young lights of our days Down the lanes of all our childhood We are lovers we are endless Try to catch this moment Catch the moment Dance the pain away How can I believe the light Just don't want to fold before time Let the circle end Let the circle end with you My love is strong Holy armour There was a sickened beast below "oh darling please make your peace" Dance the pain away Let the circle end Let the circle end If you let it go It will ease Don't spend your life fighting Let the circle end Let the circle end with you Where's My Soul Gone I tire of love When the signs are pointing to the signs It is a lonely low Are we all together out of place Where's my soul gone It is it is growing Where's my soul gone Can I be really growing Are we all together In the coldness of blood Burns a low light like heaven Don't exist a fever Like nothing else exists Where's my soul gone It is it is growing Where's my soul gone Can I be really growing Come on come on let go Are we all together Are we all together Are we all together Are we all together We Are Made Of Broken Chords Tonight we climb from the black suicide machine Yet I know there is a little fox deep beyond your darkness Because I feel it too We are made of broken chords Our love is one of them Why we have to hurt this way When brightness seems to fade away And love marches in arrow heads like a comets tail For the punk rock in our hearts All the fears I know it is the crown A wilting rose of memories grows into a strangle Around our throats We are two oceans apart Our love is one of them Why we have to hurt this way When brightness seems to fade away
Venus you're a sunbeam
The Serpents Tale Glides past my window And I just cant see you here While those stray eyes move through me Venus you're a Sunbeam Venus you're in my Blood In your search Lights i'm recovered After Solom sank the Rainbow A seance in me Confessed Love in the provence of your Heart And it solved these lines in my face I'm spilled and my Soul has been touched So I reach out over a haze of dark Angels Hold me when i'm wired Don't leave without my hand in yours So Venus you're a sunbeam You stood among the Branches of my mind Where sombre words dissolved And hope became the anchor Mine is the Portrait of Eden When fears turn to Asprins and the Devils Heart was broken So Venus you're a sunbeam Venus you're in my blood In your search lights i'm recovered After solom sank the Rainbow
