about

Here's our new release from 17th November 2023. Hiding From The Enemy was originally an idea that came up over lockdown and so almost everything was done remotely, from the writing and arranging to the separate instrumentation and vocals. We've managed to pull it together into a song which we are really proud of.

The "enemy" referred to is those inner demons and doubts we all face in life-these can be so destructive and for many of us they seem like a genuine battle. Referencing WW1 trenches and questioning whether the battles are worth fighting, the song we hope will lead others to confront their feelings and become the strong person we were all born to be!

lyrics

I’ve spent so long
Hiding from the enemy
Don’t let them catch me
Gonna be the death of me
So keep on running
Try to find my destiny
I’ll never stop….hiding from the enemy

So many years-full of tears-battle raging
Only I know the war I’ve been waging
Choose a side (fight the tide, never hide, deep inside) feeling my frustration
Is it all nothing more-imagination

I don’t know how it started…I don’t know if it’s all worth fighting for….

I’ve spent so long
Hiding from the enemy
Don’t let them catch me
Gonna be the death of me
So keep on running
Try to find my destiny
I’ll never stop….hiding from the enemy

Who will win? Who will lose? What’s the difference?
What’s the point of a war on the inside?
All the doubt, (all the tears, no way out, all my fears) feeling nothing but all the sorrow
Enemy-here today-here tomorrow

So how can I keep fighting…my enemy is living in my mind…

I’ve spent so long
Hiding from the enemy
Don’t let them catch me
Gonna be the death of me
So keep on running
Try to find my destiny
I’ll never stop….hiding from the enemy

Hide in the trenches, keep up my defences (gotta face the enemy)
Whistle is blowing and soon I’ll be going
Over the top…here I go

I’ve spent so long
Hiding from the enemy
Don’t let them catch me
Gonna be the death of me
So keep on running
Try to find my destiny
I’ll never stop….hiding from the enemy

No-o hiding from the enemy
No-o hiding from the enemy
