lyrics

Shot In The Face?

Searching for something? Yeah?
Perhaps you ought to find yourself?
Well? Well?

Do you know why I know you?
'Cos I was once like you myself
Well? Well?

And now you've lost the little things that kept you safe and warm
And although you still remember echoes of what was
There's nothing remaining in the light of what is lost
I think you're going to find it hard yeah
Over and out to the edge yeah

Still searching for something? Well?
Perhaps you’re looking out too far
Well? Well?

In all of your searching
You've forgotten who you are
Well? Well?

But now you've broke the little things which were worth fighting for
And no-one else in this life will ever give you more
You'll learn to rebuild yourself --- stronger than you were before
Even so, you're going to find it hard
You took a blow which left you marked
Lost your view upon your battle scars
I suggest that you pay them no regard
Well? Well?

about

Silverlode Leeds, UK

Silverlode is a folksome indie rock band from Leeds.

A folk band in the broadest sense of the word; dogs of pop; self-taught musical ruffians who play to their own traditions. Reinventors of self and prone to playing their songs in a myriad of ways, join Silverlode on their mythological journey through history, future, fantasy and good times via their ever-evolving music.

DIY since 2001. ... more
