    "The best aspect of this release is that it plays out like a live performance. In fact that was where my mind’s eye went when listening to the music. Furthermore, I think the six songs have a good flow from beginning to end. Although there is only one instrument the dynamics are apparent in the way he approaches the songs. That combined with solid songwriting and singing and you have a release I think many people will appreciate." - Divide and Conquer Music

lyrics

What is truth the question leading,
absolving guilt as truth stands bleeding,
political spin pure populism,
the poor left numb by your actions

the prefects words like poison stain,
the conversation of our day,
tolerances place is slowly slipping,
in our hearts they've made a killing

Wash your hands now the blood just wont come off,
façade still shining you'll answer for what you've done

Your polythene smile and constant waving
doesn't hide your hearts own failings,
fanning the flames of fear and hatred
burning the crossbeams of all that's sacred.

Fit for work but barely standing,
leather heels slowly grinding,
exchequer saving pound and shilling
with all the graves that they are filling

Wash your hands now the blood just wont come off,
façade still shining you'll answer for what you've done

First past the post but whats the prize,
tear down the roof to see the sky,
the purse strings stringing up a nation
you judge a person by their actions

Wash your hands now the blood just wont come off,
the cracks are showing you'll answer for what you've done

"This isn’t light gentle acoustic, there’s a strength to the guitar playing and vocals that give it a power and feel that a lot of acoustic artists just don’t have." - SwanScene
