I love this track, though I’m aware that some of my colleagues don’t feel quite so warmly about it.

I love the creeping feel of it, and really love the chorus riff. I also really enjoy Paul’s vocal delivery in this track.

This is very different from your normal Pallas song, and I find it very hooky, and difficult to get out of my mind once I have heard it.

 

  

 

Paul

Half Full or Half empty?

If you are the latter and/or feel the pain of the world and what we do to each other around our beautiful planet then you may have noticed on flicking your tv remote that things are not very good… 

That’s the scene set and it is supported by the haunting riff and very disturbing piano. 

There is indeed a monster coming…. Beware

This is another track that I had been messing about with at home. The track was originally called “Monster” and that name seems to have been the inspiration for the lyrics that followed.

Its coming and there’s no place to hide. A radio friendly wee ditty and short by Pallas standards!

 

 

 

 

  

Ronnie

Quite hooky. There’s a major chord in the verse that reminds me of something by Bowie – so I’m pretty cool with it!

 

 

 

 

 

Lyrics

 

I hear no music on the radio

Switch on my Tv there's nothing left amuses me

Can’t find a movie or a comedy show

No sound of laughter no happy ever after

I see them talking but don’t hear what they say 

They're all sounding crazy it truly starts to faze me

It's just outrageous their hate appears contageous

They take it the wire, they take it the wire….

 

I feel a monster… I feel a monster coming

I fear a monster… I hear a monster coming

 

I see the soldiers as they’re boarding their plane

They smile and they’re taunting, a bravery that’s haunting

Broken mothers fear they come home again 

Wrapped up in a flag, huh

 

Tin pot dictators chase their own atom bomb

While this planet is melting and no one cares for helping

We argue over nothing my head is really hurting

They take it to the wire, take it the to wire….

 

I feel a monster… I feel a monster coming

I fear a monster… I hear a monster coming

 

I am just an ordinary guy

The world's gone crazy I couldn’t tell you why

I hear no music just distant angry voices

Fear in the air, panic everywhere

It tears my soul apart, the hatred and lies

I see my friends, despair in their eyes

Something tells me the end has begun

A monster's coming there's no place to run

 

Run 

 

 

I feel a monster… I feel a monster coming

I hear a monster… I fear a monster’s coming

I feel a monster… I fear a monster coming

I see a monster… I see a monster coming………
