Alternative Rock band, based in the West Midlands, UK... Multiple genres. Original music.
We're a band of music-loving people, based in the UK [West Midlands]. We write our own music and, when opportunity arises, gig locally. Each of us has different influences so, although we call ourselves an 'alternative' band, we're more fusion and never know what style of music we'll end up writing next.

Story behind the song
Like most of our songs, they gradually evolve when one band member plays something and others build on that. I was inspired to write the lyrics because of what I see around me - poverty, homelessness, war and hunger.
Lyrics
VERSE 1 As the Sun rises up on high And my eyes look to the sky I miss the poor, at my feet And the homeless in the street CHORUS What kind of world are we living in? How many times have I given in? What kind of life are we striving for? There’s so much to be fighting for. VERSE 2 As the daylight fades, to the night And my dreams leave my sight, I hear the call from a war Refugees, seeking more REPEAT CHORUS VERSE 3 I hear the laugh of a child [But] I hear a wolf; the call of the wild [And] I hear the gunfire, in the street [But] I start to tire, and retreat. REPEAT CHORUS
