1.
Fanfare for the modern man. Pains to say you care he'll expose you if you dare normal to be bold we all want someone to hold gender rules are passed by the father to the son destined to be burned lessons to be learned voices ring aloud and you know they could be right fanfare for the modern man yet they're never to be trusted with your heart in your sleeve and his hand's in your jeans yeah you know what I mean two can play the game but you never got her name you get what you deserve just be thankful that you came careful not to stare she'll cut you if you dare gender rules are passed but they're never made to last destined to be burned a lesson to be learned voices ring aloud and you know they could be right fanfare for the common man yet they're never to be trusted when you're down on your knees oh how you want to believe yeah you know what I mean if you can believe
2.
War of the roses So how do we do this break up or make up I cowered for days hours and hours you couldn't be bothered as we run in place shame is the name of the game as you draw your sword a strike and a deathly blow still I take the blame the simplest of routes to take is the harshest of truths to face do we hate to be loved do we love to feel burned this isn't a test it's a battle for blood the cavalry comes right around the bend there will be others who'll take your place this isn't a war, there will be no roses spread on your bed, blood and tears instead left to pick up the pieces while you roll the dice shrill voices, they beckon I close my eyes
3.
Staring at the sky so blue these words so cold and jumbled mean so much to me these ills these thrills one single frame i've so much to learn show me anger show me fear where you draw your strength these tears shed on your pale shoulder I pray you understand do you feel the same I will follow you all is safe and calm now you're here with me they shake their heads, they shrug their shoulders as I break down and cry I want my brother, my silent friend but do you feel the same do you shudder do you wonder this bond we brothers share staring at the sky so blue, let the sun rays shine on you chorus they'll come and go though you and I are forever intertwined the day will come i'll call your name and you will sing to me chorus do you feel the same do you feel at all here I lay with you all day long
4.
Those evil urges i've got time to spare and you, the spite quite clear we've something in common so much to share no mark to hit or miss we'll talk of love and war, of sacrifice whilst in the throes of passion i'll toss, you turn no time to waste on morbid thoughts of home those evil urges inside have consumed us the night's promise is gone by the morning held down and been swallowed up i'm not sorry you've got charm to spare and I, the guilt money is too loose to mention my hands are bare I guess this means goodbye before you place the cash on the dresser promise what's done here remains here we've got mouths to feed our sordid lives await out there lust, guilt, shackles round my neck tighten their grip when I touch you no place to hide and home is much too far away those evil urges have betrayed us

The Mystic Underground New York

Life...set to a dance beat. The soundtrack of your trials and tribulations. Injecting a generous dollop of drama along with extra helpings of synths and sass into an otherwise dreary and desolate musical landscape is what The Mystic Underground are here to offer. A collision of sounds. A thoughtful and whimsical blend of man versus machine.

Welcome.
