about
Written around 2009 this was eventually recorded by the band over a drum sample I took from a recording I did with Emma. We put it on our last Broken Broadcast release 'Find Us When We Drift'.
I've redone this as a minimal concept with just vocals and percussion. Needless to say it took a while to nail as an acapella.
Still one of my personal favourites
lyrics
I've got a reverence for someone
the captain of my soul
nurse these swollen limbs
teach them how to swim
murderers these monsters
will eat them up for breakfast
murderers these monsters
will eat them up for breakfast
Pitchforks and emptiness
Looking for some happiness
the captain of my soul
the captain of my soul
murderers these monsters
will eat them up for breakfast
murderers these monsters
will eat them up for breakfast
hold on, i'll save you my captain
