LYRICS:

This dark bridlepath lane
No wonder this town is rotten
Look at its veins
No wonder it shudders in pain
Its heart is broken

Look at the pressure points, the bottlenecks
We’re in danger, out in the open
We’re in danger, out in the open
And no protection comes
From the ones we send our wages to
No it only comes from togetherness of me and you
We stand together like opposite shapes
We fit together like noses and napes
Breathe in the puddle mist
All the dirty mouths I’ve kissed
I taste the cough of a stranger so well
Tickled by another man’s beard
Hearing other people’s problems
That don’t sound as bad as my own
Cos I don’t even wanna leave this pub and go home
There's babies and blacks
Whites close to heart attacks
Stone cold crazies and mentally well
We all sit around together in hell
Looking at the pornographic neon
Telling us which kind of alcohol we need to be on

Beware the man who turns 180 degrees
In the middle of the night
Why would he make such a strange decision
If things were going alright?
I've been that man many, many times
I needed to wander the cobbles at night
Beneath the cosy beds and the clear heads
I go from feeling poetic to lying half-dead

This dark bridlepath lane
No wonder this town is rotten
Look at its veins
No wonder it shudders in pain
Its heart is broken

Our thoughts are with the community of who experienced significant coastal erosion and damage to their homes earlier this year 💔

The Norwich Film Festival is fast approaching, and it holds a bittersweet significance as we reflect on the scenes we were able to film. Sadly, that very landscape has now been lost to the sea, forever gone, but remaining in our memories and the frames we were able to capture.

Deeply honoured and grateful to for recognising our work and shortlisting us for an award in the category they have.
