Story Behind The Song
Lead Guitarist Ben Misikin wrote both the music and lyrics for Down the Ranks from personal inspiration gained throughout his life. In 2014 when we started re tracking our album through our new studio, Down the Ranks stood out as a song we definitely wanted to release as a single. We were able to complete it in late 2015/early 2016.
Song Description
Down the ranks is a song that in summary describes ones desire to come together and share the understanding of struggles that have driven two people away from each other. A desire to start with a clean slate before it's too late and return to the closeness that once existed between them.

Lyrics
These struggles continue cause you haven't seen what I've seen.
Bring us together, step into my dreams. See what you haven't felt before.
Lets end the silence and bring us together and lets fight the fight we were birds of a feather
Lets bring this back to a day with a clean slate and fight regret. It was our unseen fate.
This cycle we've fallen into has burried us alive somehow.
It's all the better to keep our mouths from speaking another empty vow.
Lets end the silence and bring us together and lets fight the fight we were birds of a feather
Lets bring this back to a day with a clean slate and fight regret. It was our unseen fate.
Take a look at the past.
And don't forget to add up the facts.
Take a look at the past.
And don't forget to add up the facts.
Lets end the silence and bring us together and lets fight the fight we were birds of a feather
Lets bring this back to a day with a clean slate and fight regret. It was our unseen fate.
Straight to life with the fight.
Straight to life before love dies.
