about

This is a nostalgic look at the ones that get away. I was trying to channel 80s Iggy Pop, Jesus and Mary Chain and Echo and the Bunnymen here. Sounds like The Cars meets Pulp. Or something

lyrics

ATOM OF JUSTICE

I saw her face in a crowd,
I stopped dead, we shook hands
I wore my heart on her sleeve
But tough luck, we lost touch

When someone comes into your life
That you're with, that you want
You'd better hope that time is right
Cos sometimes

We need an ounce of affection,
A drop of emotion
We need a fragment of friendship
We need a hint of compassion,
A slice of devotion
We need an atom of justice

If you don't look at a tree when it falls, is it free?
If you don't stick when she calls, when you twist, you bust
There are no rules to flaunt or fail, sometimes....

Who's gonna drop the bomb?
Who's gonna find my heart?
Who's got a heavy load?
Who's gonna time it right?

Summer's gone, fragments in isolation
Memories, relapses, synapses
Wear the badge, carry the torch
Be free
