Move you
Buy and sell you
Terrorise you
Mass destruct you
Flaunt you
Disconnect you
Clusterfuck you
We will crush you
Rocks are slow life (X8)

Rocks are slow life (X12)
Oooooh...

Television
Pretty pictures
Of starvation
Cold apartments
I see fractures
I see fragments
"It's the most epic song on the album - it was either going to start it or finish it because it dwarfs all the other songs. It starts off with an electro cop show style intro, which we jammed on top of, and Sean O'Hagan did some amazing strings. The lyrics are just regurgitating what we hear on the news: recycled, vomiting them all back. I like the idea that even the mountains have memories and that people don't forget things easily."
Quote (2) (Gruff):
"Cian was working on the riff for years and we kept asking him when it was going to be finished and when we could get to grips with it. In the end we were just jamming on the top of it. It is all Cian's programming and then we played on top. I think it is one of our highlights as a band."
