lyrics

I hear the cars roll past my bed
Calm waves of engines soothing my head
They sometimes sing a lullaby
Those guardian angels that are trapped inside
There’s no comfort in well meant sympathy
The situation remains ...
There is no room for being sentimental
March of time is never ceasing
And all that’s left for us to come to terms with
Is the fact that we’re still face to face
Everything changes except this room
The walls are silent, as a witness, mute

Squaring The Circle
by Sneaker Pimps

supported by 4 fans who also own “FACE TO FACE”

The UK is particularly blessed with talent in electronica, and Sneaker Pimps are right up there with Portishead, The Aloof & Massive Attack in dark urban disenchantment. 2nd LP Splinters is still my favourite with founding member Chris Corner singing throughout, but this new collection of songs is wonderfully different & Simonne Jones’ singing is dreamy & sensual. Fighter is my top song, the lyrics full of vulnerable strength. Mid LP is especially strong, with Tranquility Trap, SOS, and Stripes. Master of Alchemy
