This track is probably the most personal and emotional track from our upcoming album. It tells the story of the day Mikey’s Dad died and everything he went through to try and be at his bedside before he passed away. This song documents everything he felt and thought in that time and the emphatic plea for him to please, just breathe until he could get to him...

BURN is a tongue in cheek look at the state of the world, kind of one of those if you don’t laugh, you’ll cry type moments. No matter where you turn right now you find the world in complete disarray, and it doesn’t take too cynical of a mind to think that humanity is doomed… This song plays with the idea that perhaps we have let it go too far, we are beyond the tipping point and the only thing left to do is to sit back and watch it burn…

GODDESS is love, it's lust, sex, desire, devotion, adoration and hopeless, eternal connection. It's both crippling affection and white, hot eternal love. It’s the dizzying realization that this devotion is infinite, both eye opening and blinding at the same time, it will burn as hot as the sun but also leave you chilled to the bone. This unending connection will lead you to the ends of the earth, through time and space with an energy that simply cannot be destroyed.
