lyrics

Under the sun, you were trying to tan
"Of Mice and Men", you were devouring
A butterfly hanging around your knees
A gentle breeze drying a drop of sweat

The sky was blue, and the garden was green
The shining light on your hair tangerine
You've got a nice pair of big black glasses
Who'd ever guess what they gonna see?

And suddenly your walls are flying
And suddenly your dreams are leaving
You cannot guess what's going on
You cannot wait, your future is gone

'Cause it's the day the sky caught fire
Yeah, it's the day the sky caught fire
'Cause it's the day the sky caught fire
Yeah, it's the day the sky caught fire

What's going on?

'Cause it's the day the sky caught fire
You better run, it's now or never
'Cause it's the day the sky caught fire
Yeah, it's the day the sky caught fire

What's going on?

Great four-track EP heavy on feedback and mood – these are powerful songs with energy and momentum, and feature that classic 'wall of sound' guitar style that I enjoy so much and never get tired of. Bring on the next full album! Michael Reilly
