I wrote this song as a thoughtful ballad with a darker lyrical edge. Once again Corin Anderson (CoriAnder) has produced the song magnificently. Gus Harrower provides the fantastic vocal.

Lyrics

In the gloom of midnight-hour the mist is rolling in
Waiting for your darling demon
Your head is in a spin
Watch out for turbulence throwing you around
To the ground again

Rollercoaster, brakes a failing, pedal to the floor
You want to scream and shout
The public asks for more
Generators rumble in the secrecy of night
You take fright again

No, I can't believe you've taken leave of your senses this time
No, I can't believe you've taken leave of your senses

In a room on the nineteenth floor, a blemish on your skin
You close the doors and windows to keep the night time in
(Keep the night time in)
The world is monochrome as it races round your mind.
One more time again

No, I can't believe you've taken leave of your senses this time
No, I can't believe you've taken leave of your senses


Listen to a thousand voices
None of them are heard
Giving you a million choices
You don't believe a word (You don't believe a word)
Imagine if you fell to earth
Your fear would be absurd

No, I can't believe you've taken leave of your senses this time
No, I can't believe you've taken leave of your senses

No, I just can't believe..no..no..no
I just can't believe..no..no..no
No I just can't believe..no..no..no

I can't believe you've taken leave of your senses




I'm digging the outside the box-ness of this production with good use of electronic instruments. Solid believable vocals, too!

Autobahn by Kraftwerk anyobody?! Grabbed my attention from the outset. less is more is king here. I like it. really liked the chorus - so simple and effective. This track also would lend itself to a seriously harcore remix by the likes of Deadmau5 or Matrix. (You know the Matrix/Futurebound feat Max Marshall track called Control - that totally blows me away and gives you an idea where I'm going with my comments).

Nice vibe, great instrumentation. I enjoyed listening! Great job!

Lyrically, the song is great and the structure is good as well. I love the vibe of the song as well.

I like the vibe of the song. Has a good melody and the vocals sound excellent. It' has an 80s feel which I like a lot. Lyrics are pretty creative and I like the vocal things you did with the background vocals. Good production. Really liked the song.
