I like molasses Civil disorder and broken glasses. English girls in the high street, high colour in their cheeks Ms Banks in her suffragette sashes. Let’s burn the world, while we talk about Futures and fashion. Crouch in the corner of the boardroom, spend the morning Sifting through the ashes. Oh my Survey the classes, the themes arising Will not be passive. Let’s run with the foxes now, because next year the hounds They will be faster. Let’s turn the world, let’s turn it around now Evade disaster. Listen to the foot fall, around the corner A movement marches. Oh my

about

Our second album... A theme to tie together the work of multiple songwriters can be tricky but, ultimately, the idea of passing years, and recalling specific times in our lives, emerged as a common thread and was captured succinctly in a line taken from Passport – “A Life in Stages”.

Whether it's reflecting on a past love (Rose, Violet Town), yearning for a more innocent time (Popular Hero, Hollow, Sugar), dreaming of eternal youth (Pickle) or wondering how you got to where you are (Passport, Tarot), the songs capture the joy, grief and loss we can feel so strongly for times gone by, and for our former selves.
