'Quickstep' is a song about being saved, both mentally and physically, when all else seems lost. It's intended as a tribute to the people who are there for us. Whoever they might be - charity workers, mental health professionals, first-responders, our friends and family. It was initially inspired by, Scott Hutchison of Frightened Rabbit, who lost the fight earlier this year. It's for Scott and to everybody else who didn't make it. It's also a tribute and a heartfelt 'Thank You' to those people who help us get through another day.
Now I'm spread too thin,
Too thin this time
Stretched out, lined up arms wide
Now I'm outside blind
Coagulated, staring at the coastline
Eviscerated, waiting for the punchline
New blood thickens
Old heart quickstep
Cold compression
Now I'm grounded,
Not left for dead
Red veins deepen
Into blue blood clots
Heart pushed harder
Breath won't stop,
Her pulse beats harder,
Her breath won't stop.
New blood thickens
Old heart quickstep
Cold compression

Something about guitars and singing and that. And fuzz pedals too, probably. I was born in Liverpool and live in the Isle of Man.
