Swallow it all down And then you spit at me Such poetry You’ve such dignity You can be so cold sometimes I want to know the difference Between the chosen and the damned How did we end up like this This was never what we planned Any excuse, any excuse You know you’ll take any excuse Just to break your silence Baby it’s a shame A crying shame You know it’s a goddamn shame Because we could have built something Take me to the edge Push me to the brink Take me to the point where I can touch space and time Take me to the edge Push me to the brink Baby, you know You can be so cold sometimes The Devil, the Devil He never said a word But he let me in I know Nothing She never felt so good As in this House of Sin So lonely My eyes are yours We could fall and our eyes could lose their purpose Our senses become worthless You are a son to someone You are a daughter to no one And I suffered, how I suffered for you And I came out brand new And I’m so fired up It’s so easy just to give it up

My mouth is shaped to form these words Now I’m surrounded by what I’m not One kiss from you says it’s over But I’m in the mood to be right I spent so long working out Which way’s up That now I’m down Can you tell me when enough Will ever be enough Or is that to much to ask? My mouth is shaped to form these words Now I’m surrounded by what I’m not I spent so long working out Which way’s up That now I’m down Can you tell me when enough Will ever be enough Or is that to much to ask? Walking in the garden Asleep in my clothes Walking in the garden My eyes fully closed

Grace 04:22
Call me when you’re down And I’ll make sure that your arms are broken Call me when you’re down And make sure your heart is open Come up, come around And I’ll make sure your words are spoken Fall into the ground And let all of the earth pour over Palm me off a cigarette It hasn’t happened yet for me Defined by the Northern Lights We set fire to the first pyre Pushed it out into the water You know it’s alright And to watch him take flight is helping you see That what you had And what you lost Are not the same thing They’re not the same thing I just want you to know You can let him go And no-one’s going to judge It’s bigger than us So raise both of your hands above us Angels into dust So place both of your hands upon the cross All that love, baby all that love I’ve seen empires fallen for less Call me when you’re down Oh baby, what a terrible mess Defined by the Northern Lights We set fire to the first pyre Pushed it out into the water You know it’s alright And to watch him take flight is helping you see That what you had And what you lost Are not the same thing Alright, alright Baby, come home with me tonight Where what I give And what you gain Could be the same thing They’d be the same thing I just want you to know You can let him go And no-one’s going to judge

Pact 05:08
You never listen to a word I say You never touch me, only push me away Another meeting ran on late And when you get home, the kids are crying I never touched him, but yes we spoke Our tongues curled heavy around the coffee and smoke I guess he’s laughing at my jokes A little more than you do lately Now it’s all over the news This is the way we love Like it’s not good enough Stop making fires Stop making fun out of me It was never the music, baby It was you who led me to drugs If I’m a selfish lover once Then I’m a selfless liar twice Because I have tried, and I know neither was enough When I met you I first broke that old pact with myself To never love anyone else Except for me And now I see you’re not unique Because I’d break it again When she looks at me When I met her I first broke that old pact that we share To never let anyone else Compare But now I see you’re not unique I don’t know where I’ll be

Like waking up from a violent dream With open eyes and a child’s scream You walk out On me I never really know what to say Just take my hand and I lead the way They come to me so lonely They come to me so lonely and still Mama, I cut my tongue out In the hope I’d never find home Mama, I ripped my heart out Just to taste a little love Mama, I set the fire So I guess I better be getting myself gone Mama, am I still a child in your eyes When I’ve touched so much I know that I’m alive?

about

ZIGO Sevenoaks, UK

What started as a crazy idea in an attic space in September 2005 has become something beard-strokingly serious for four teenagers with delusions of grandeur. Mashed Potato grew into Icarus, and then into ZIGO, and from the sweaty depths of boys’ bedrooms - young mens' now - flowed a unique sound, a blend of their love for artists ranging from Radiohead to Robert Johnson and Focus to Foals. ... more
