lyrics

Well, I guess that they finally caught me
laying low abroad --- it’s time to face the music because someone’s been keeping score

I never really got lazy, I guess that I just got bored of living like an outlaw, hiding from The Law

And I’ve been gone so long, my son, I forgot what I was running for
Violence and I --- two silhouettes against the sun, barely one step in front of Karma’s frosty touch

The wagon pulls up to a stop, I keep my eyes fixed on the door --- tense my back in anticipation and stay close to the floor

I’m ready to use my fists, my jaw, my teeth, my claws. Read all about it tomorrow --- it’s theatre --- and I fucking love applause!

Oh, I’ve been gone so long, my son, I forgot what I was running for
Violence and I --- two silhouettes against the sun, barely one step in front of Karma’s frosty touch

I’ve been gone so long, my son, I forgot what I was running for
I’ve been gone so long, my son, I forgot what I was running for
I’ve been gone so long, my son, I forgot what I was running for
I’ve been gone so long, my son, I forgot what I was running for
Violence and I --- two silhouettes against the sun, barely one step in front of Karma’s frosty touch

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
