Indierock band from the UK We play some riff based tracks and also some very mellow acoustic songs
We are an indie/rock band based in the UK. We formed in 1999, and have played several local gigs. We are looking for feedback on our tracks. We'd love to hear from you, whether it be ass-kissing hero worship, constructive criticism or telling us how bad we are! Whatever you're comments, we'd greatly appreciate them!

Story behind the song
This song is about me. It’s about the frontman of a band who’s private life is dark and unknown. The audience only sees me when I’m on stage, and their perceptions of me and my personality are probably false. I suppose the lyrics could also be applied to most other singers too.
Lyrics
VERSE 1 Bless me father for I have sinned I've forged my entire life The world doesn’t see the real me Doesn’t see what's inside You could never understand my troubles You'd hate me if you knew I'm not the perfect guy you thought This is all an act for you BRIDGE But when I'm put on show For all the world to see I become someone else Something that isn’t me CHORUS I'm just a filtered icon All you see is the face You don’t really know me But you think you do I'm just a filtered icon All you hear is the voice Behind the scenes It’s all a blur to you VERSE 2 Who's gonna put me in my place Discover my horrific past I'm really just a waste of space This mask will not last I don’t know why you idolise me I'm not the one you need My life is fake, it’s counterfeit I grew from an impure seed (REPEAT CHORUS) (REPEAT BRIDGE) MIDDLE 8 I've become a hero Through no fault of my own I never wanted to live this way (REPEAT CHORUS)
