Ethereal vocal track set against aggressive beats & guitar riffs. The vocals are 'fudged' to make them more like an instrument. The lyrics are available if you are that way inclined.

This song dates back to 1995. It has been played by both of the bands I was in: Anathema Device & Murmur. Whilst the lyrics are virtually identical, the tune has been drastically re-written to encompass the subject matter.

Everyday (A telegram)
It start's the same (This hologram)
Life is to blame (Stark fist)
This impermanent flame (A happy wish)
Giving me attitude (This egotist)
Pour acid on the angst (Getting p*****d)
Another cheap beatitude (Grand slam)
Roll over lay down (Open jam)
Roll over lay down (Open jam)


So we wend our weary way
Wooden actors in the play for today
Static bursts screaming in our ears
If all else fails
But, if all else fails.....
It's down the pub.....
For a few more beers.


It's not that far to the far side
And so all things must change
It's not that far to the far side
And so all things must change
It's not that far
It's not that far
It's not that far
It's not that far
