" ‘I Was Born’ is a cacophony of exquisiteness. It manages to maintain its youthfulness with a robust sense of purpose. Invigorating riffs strike between the clever technical guitar tapping’s like thunderous punches and a precise backline provides the invincible spinal chord of a song that will plague your mind with its catchiness."- Glasgow Podcart
lyrics
It was like a page torn from a book and we knew that war was so
We fled to mountains, we fled to the mountains.
We covered you in cotton wool and soot because we saw that war was coming so.
We fled to mountains, we fled to the mountains.
Everyone knows we are composed of skulls and bones and rents and loans
So we feel safe and we feel safe
We should dispose of all that we own and all that we've sown so
We feel safe and we feel safe
It's so hard to know, how to go.
It's so hard to know, how to go.
Everyone knows we are composed of skulls and bones and rents and loans
So we feel safe and we feel safe
We should dispose of all that we own and all that we've sown so
We feel safe and we feel safe
We covered you in cotton wool and soot because we saw that war was coming so.
We fled to mountains, we fled to the mountains.

PAWS are the most fun, especially on this single. I bought it with that whole Gerry Loves bundle and it was all incredible. One heck of a label. Jamie (Audio Antihero)
