Technically released as a single in 2013, but it was a part of the quite brilliant 'Accidents Happen' E.P, released earlier this year. Strange Times is so damn good that we had to exploit this loophole and stick it in here
lyrics
Born into strange times, born into white rooms,
Without a cause, without a station I am,
Watching with glazed eyes, watching through ajar doors,
Each inch of light in sepia fading, and as it's fading I am.
I side with everyone,
Blow it to kingdom come,
Watch as the thread's undone,
Blow it to kingdom come.
Born into strange times.
A psycho. A coma. A red stone wall.
Lost in a crazed mind, lost in a mind at war,
This time the proof is in the tasting and if you're tasting I am.
I side with everyone,
Blow it to kingdom come,
Trap set, the web is spun,
Blow it to kingdom come.
Born into strange times.
A psycho. A coma. Scentless aroma.
Tell her to reach over the red stone walls.
Born into strange times.
