I don’t think you’re selling this very well You don’t need to be angry with yourself Seems like you’re kicking up a fuss over nothing You didn’t get what you expected and now you’re Pushing it back on someone else Is it time you had a word with yourself There’s no substance in anything you’ve got I don’t think you’re fooling anyone You’ve made the basic attribution error You saw the truth and then you ran in terror And now you’re Pushing it back on someone else Is it time, is it time, is it time You thought that what you saw was an Indication of a personality not a situation You jumped to conclusions and in the Confusion you lost your rationality

Let's go to the shore and fly our kite Loose the lines and let it just take flight Flip the reigns and watch it spin upright                                          Hold my hand and I'll be yours tonight Sand beneath our feet, flying out of reach, til we get so tired that we can't sleep, rolling down to the beach                                         How could i now choose an office with a view    When I could just spend my life out here and i could be with you And when it feels like we're getting too long in the tooth I want to recreate the recreation of our youth      But then it feels too much like a shade of the truth          Not an authentic recreation of the times from our youth    Let's go take out the boat to the reef you've got wine and I've got the belief Sight the keel in and haul up the mast    Life is far too short and far too fast I wanna build a castle in the sand But I think i need a helping hand I hoped that someday you would understand  I wanna go back to the life we planned  You can call me sentimental but I wanna go back there to show you how I really need this in my life right now  All these years are tainted with regret  I think I need a chance to press reset You never recognise that these are the times  until you look back and it all chimes

This is going really badly It’s turning into a tragedy I think we fluffed all our lines We messed it up in our minds Did you think it would be easy Now im starting to get queasy Think, think, think, think, think, think I can’t think of anything, Im starting to sink When the tide’s moving in the wrong direction You’ve got to swallow your pride And follow the tide When the tide’s moving in the wrong direction You’ve got to follow your pride And swallow the tide We’re nowhere near our destination And low in every estimation This is getting too ridiculous Now I’m starting to feel sick, your loss Why do I never plan anything in advance Think, think, think, think, think, think I can’t think of anything, I’m starting to sink When the tide’s moving in the wrong direction You’ve got to swallow your pride And follow the tide When the tide’s moving in the wrong direction You’ve got to follow your pride And swallow the tide Can I get off I wanna settle down I wanna get off When the tides moving in the wrong direction

about

Year of the Fiery Horse Liverpool, UK

Hello! Year of the Fiery Horse are a four piece alternative rock / synthpop band from Liverpool and Manchester. We combine glossy synths, three part vocal harmonies, pounding drums, simmering basslines and complex guitar melodies. Our influences include Phoenix, Metronomy and Pavement. We’ve had an early play from Steve Lamacq (BBC 6 Music) and been gigging around the North West for the past year. ... more
