lyrics

I want you to feel me the hardest, the deepest
I want every little shot to feel like the cheapest
Down where your hope lies cold and rusted
I want the very word 'love' to leave you disgusted
But I want you to feel it

I want to hold your world in my hands
Just to know that I can throw it away
That's all power is now, baby
All you are to me is a

Conquest Another pin in the map, another city surrendered
Conquest Another place to attack, another treasury plundered
Conquest All the glorious things that can only be taken
Conquest Every gesture of trust to be used and forsaken

I want the flowers this world has no use for
I want to walk the line between sensitive and sore
I want your acquiescence to my every proposal
I want every orifice at my disposal
I want you to feel me

I'll love you so hard you can't stand up
And then leave and never see you again
That's all power is now, baby
That's all power is now, baby
And all you can be is a

Conquest Another pin in the map, another city surrendered
Conquest Another place to attack, another victim outnumbered
Conquest Like an army of dogs that I have to keep feeding
Conquest And a trail in the dust of the ones left bleeding

Another city surrended
Another city surrended
Another city surrended

Black Hay London, UK

Black Hay is the project of London-born Gideon K and a motley crew of collaborators.

Previously described as "Worse than Leonard Cohen", Black Hay's music has gone from noirish garage rock, to grungey alt-country low-rock, via DIY house-bound balladry, to a current incarnation of cold-hearted post-punk indie synth-tronica.

The new single 'Always Be Mine' is out now. ... more
