Bleach It

I found my peace in the middle of a war
became the beast but forgot what for
smashed through the ceiling which was also a floor
feeding the plant but killing the soil
Bleach it and start again
Been awful civilised
Being awful civilised
Been awful c*^%$
I cut my teeth as a professional whore
on my knees I can see much more
saving yourself is killing us all
Bleach it and start again
Been awful civilised
Being awful civilised
Been awful c*^%$

Follow The Rabbit

Been so long you know you've got to go
follow the rabbit to the hole
see the writing on the wall
seen the writing on the wall
where the tunnel begins
the light surrounds invites you in
drawn to this place a garden gate
not to think but to feel
the last embrace
the dream that's real
serene and at peace
drift above
over myself
watching from another place
I'm not afraid now
I'm not afraid now

The Lie
02:45

made a big mistake, I was born illogical
learnt to be insane, thought it was biological
the lie is faster than the truth
the lie is faster than the truth
it's easier to be fooled than to be convinced
realise that it's not you, it's how it is
it's just the way it is
it must be me that's wrong
now the science has changed
what's not believable
an illicit trade selling mind control?
the lie is faster than the truth
a lie is faster than the truth
it's just the way it is, it must be me that's wrong
it must be me
it must be me

Voices In A Hurricane
02:50

In the same boat, up in the air
chasing rainbows for big cheese
bad apple they say in a plum job
doesn't cut the mustard though
its just business as usual
business as usual
on thin ice, shooting fish in a barrel
thick as thieves at splitting hairs
between the deep sea and the devil
out of nowhere pie in the sky
if the shoe fits then burn the midnight oil
get carried away once in a blue moon
'til the cat's got your tongue
but there's fire in your belly still
fire in your belly still
in a nutshell a hot potato's all the rage
around the bend and out of work, on cold days in July
there's no smoke without fire, in the dark
going down in flames, it's time to break the ice
and lead the horse to water
we're voices in a hurricane
like voices in a hurricane

Broken Bear London, UK
"The perfect soundtrack for the impending apocalypse” - Kate Hoare (IAMUR)

/ shoegaze duo Broken Bear are carving out their own sound but comparisons have been drawn with Nirvana, Radiohead, Fleetwood Mac and The Cranberries.
Broken Bear are regulars on their local BBC Introducing show (Surrey & Sussex) and have been championed by Tom Robinson on his BBC 6Music mixtape.
