LEGS BROKEN + mini-webcast tonight 8pm!

Helloo Patrons,

Yes. Finally. January is over. The worst of the winter is behind and finally looks like things might just pick up again for the music industry.

I have 3-4 shows booked for later this year, 2 music videos on the horizon and a whole bunch of things planned. Patreon is still going strong and most of you are still here, so THANK YOU for your patience with everything.

This month's official "thing" is LEGS BROKEN. One of my most angry/evil songs to date. It comes with fiery accordions, violin, guitar, drums and Jonny's most vicious performance so far on the vocals. I hope you love it... I really, really do.

Also, I will be doing a very short and sweet webcast tonight on both the Facebook group and here. Links will be posted about 7.30pm and I'll go live at 8pm. I'll just be singing a few songs and then having a chat with you all. So bring any questions you might have, any stories/thoughts and I'll look forward to seeing any of you then. I imagine it'll be a small crowd but whoever is there, I shall play and enjoy connecting with you. I need a reason to sing right now!

See you tonight, and as always I welcome your comments on the new song?

Here are the lyrics:

LEGS BROKEN (Lyrics by Mishkin & Simon)

This one goes out to the thief and all the blood he drew

Every night, I make a scar, I named it after you

I’m sharpening these knives of wrath, arrows of my hate

I’m carving up my convictions, the faithless never shake

I lie awake upon these nails imagining a rope

I wrap it tight around his neck, I twist until he chokes

My friends all know that I was taught to turn the other cheek

But even Christ led Judas to his fateful hanging tree

How you gonna get there in the dark my friend?

How you gonna walk there with your legs broken?

How you gonna walk the streets at night again?

When everyone in town knows that you’re poison

Son of Cain, your veins are filled with anger and mistrust

A petty child you hurled your rock and left me in the dust

My Abel heart is crawling from the grave up through the soil

This river floods to red as blood, I’ll make these oceans boil

I’ll follow you through deserts dry as far as eyes can see

With vengeance as my mistress, she cares nothing for your plea

You leave your trail of poison bread for all your greedy mice

Well I don’t need a snake to pull you from your paradise

How you gonna get there in the dark my friend?

How you gonna walk there with your legs broken?

How you gonna walk the streets at night again?

When everyone in town knows that you’re poison

Now your silver’s all been spent, your fortress turns to dust

You’re seeking out some shelter but there’s no one you can trust

The path behind is jaded from the bridges set aflame

Even your own shadow casts the colour of your shame

And as the sun is setting on your empire of deceit

The moon is rising up to make my ritual complete

Day is drawing to a close and I draw back my bow

I’ll strike back to where you came, nine circles down below

How you gonna get there in the dark my friend?

How you gonna walk there with your legs broken?

How you gonna walk the streets at night again?

When everyone in town knows that you’re poison

How you gonna get there in the dark my friend?

How you gonna walk there with your legs broken?

The devil wouldn’t even bother spill your blood

But everyone in town knows that I would

Hefty is the weight that you have cast upon this stone

I find it hard to carry it, but I am not alone

I’ve always found forgiveness is the pathway back to sight

But seeing your depravity has left me dull and blind

One day I’ll take a hammer to your coffin where I’ll pry

And open up your secrets to the world from which you hide

And though I know I should leave your life up to the fates

The only thing your heart needs is a stake
