about

Pete and Gee recorded three live acoustic versions of the Engines EP songs in Pete's flat.

Rough and ready.

lyrics

Keep yourself from taking my breath
We invent the venomous death
It's on you to make my head work
Just monsters undercover
We grew up in sinking houses
Taught to stalk and kill with purpose
I don't think my heart's in its place
It's too far gone to retrace

You'll find me on the hillside
You'll find me under replaced ground
They took me by the train line
They shook me 'til i couldn't make a sound

We're just thieves that took the young ones
We dug their beds and filled out their stones
Open up and let the dark in
Limbs safely trussed to begin
Love is like a hallow heart shaped vision
Cooped inside the car with no permission
We're two crazy horses, buck when ridden
Nobody threw us a rope to give in

You'll find me on the hillside
You'll find me under replaced ground
They took me by the train line
They shook me 'til i couldn't make a sound
With all my signal's broken
Not a sign that the radar can expose
Just a son to a parent
Put outside for the wicked to dispose

No one knows just what what they're in for
The people talk like bust up records
Two hawks roam the streets for pleasure
They swoop their prey up at every corner

You'll find me on the hillside
You'll find me under replaced ground
They took me by the train line
They shook me 'til i couldn't make a sound
With all my signal's broken
Not a sign that the radar can expose
Just a son to a parent
Put outside for the wicked to dispose

We saw the cost to end a life
Disguise the promise of a knife
Caught in the net tonight, now we're on the run
