Your smile breaks forth it has fear it has force contorts my mind but I cant see the point in you the point in me these gods so small we’ll steal them all you run away I heed the call but turning round I watch you sprint I watch you fall I’m king, you’re queen of this emotional scene and I cant find a reason so I hope you find this loaded gun that’s by my side and take this crowd out of my mind so pack your stuff get out of here just run away, just run away I feel pain on the inside and this love has left me blind and every time you ignore me I feel you slipping away How is love going to find us when we live in the shadows Do you have an opinion does this feel real to you do you make up the answers when life is questioning you How is love going to find us when we live in the shadows

His hair was on fire His body was on fire and his clothes were on fire but he kept on running through the flames and it just goes to show you can never keep a good man down

Bad Hair Day (free) 03:52
He howled at the moon repeated his name in a whisper To a stranger on the road The men went blind and emptied their pockets And he sat watching a girl With a look that said how are you today He fell down and disappeared for a while But he picked myself up And he carried on walking He made a nest out of sticks and stones And the things you left behind He crept around like a crab crawled on all fours Like a dying soldier He spoke to a baby kissed a plastic Jesus and he cried like an old man And the old man said The heart is a lonely hunter And in the end we kill the things we love And he said I’ve never tried stopping myself Because I don’t know how I like to write big, he said I like to write big and he followed you here and he won’t take no for an answer he’s in the street staring up at you he’s looking at you in the mirror as you’re brushing your hair And It’s like he’s known you all his life And he’s getting closer He’s getting closer And he’s watching the tears as they run down your face And he won’t let you go He won’t let you go He won’t let you go! Now he’s opening the door And he’s walking up the stairs He’s got your name on his lips And he’s thinking of the first time as he enters the room And she pretends not to notice as you approach her from behind and grab the hand that’s holding the brush you’re searching for the right words but they just won’t come And she’s watching the tears as they run down your face And he’s never going to let you go

All Songs written by GiT

Where once stood a frustrated stand-up poet, a musician, a fetish fashion designer and a travelling adventurer now stand GiT, who have honed their post-punk, post-industrial, post-pop charge over a hard year of snotty dives, sticky clubs and greasy fetish nights.

Edgar Allen Poe meets Mark E. Smith, crowing and cawing, whispering through densely layered mesmeric guitar: they cajole us to dark places, rolling and wrecking like the unseen storm out to sea.

Git's pulsing, swerving sound will speak to you in a way that music rarely does. Reverie and revelry mashed up on the dance floor, they are a force of nature and a jerking, electric call to arms. Catch them while you can. Music doesn't come much more powerful, infectious, arresting and original than this.
