Lead single from the new EP, Brace For Impact, due out in November 2022.

lyrics

No warmth in the firelight
No kindness in the touch of the absolute
Nothing blooming in the garden
Nothing taking flight
It’s a short and brutish life so…

Simmer down, hold your tongue, wait your turn, die easy
Simmer down, hold your tongue, wait your turn, die easy….

Another noise fills the room
Air hanging like a dead thing
The crowd heaves and breathes like some lumbering creature

Hemmed in by the mountain and hemmed in by the briny sea
Well, it’s hemmed in by the mountain, all the way down

Simmer down, hold your tongue, wait your turn, die easy
Simmer down, hold your tongue, wait your turn, die easy
Simmer down, hold your tongue, wait your turn, die easy
Simmer down, simmer down, simmer down…

No warmth in the firelight
No kindness in the touch of the tender
Nothing blooming in the garden
Nothing taking flight
It’s a short and brutish life so…

Hemmed in by the mountain and hemmed in by the briny sea
Well, it’s hemmed in by the mountain, all the way out

Simmer down, hold your tongue, wait your turn, die easy
Simmer down, hold your tongue, wait your turn, die easy
Simmer down, hold your tongue, wait your turn, die easy
Simmer down, simmer down, simmer down…
