lyrics
I gave my soul
To the things that you admired
I caught it
As it came through
Let you be my saviour
Kept it to give you back
Back-to-back
With you
And the heartbeat of the city
In the shadows I made my home
I’ve been changing
And mamma don’t know
Let her tears fall
And make the flowers grow
I am changing
And daddy can see
His reflection
In the mirror of me
Should I regret
These dangerous feeling
But I was born
To feel alone
Without your love
I’m just a stranger
A wilful child
You can’t control
And the heartbeat of the city
In the shadows I made my home
I’ve been changing
And mamma don’t know
Let her tears fall
And make the flowers grow
I am changing
And daddy can see
His reflection
In the mirror of me
Back-to-back
With the spirit holy
Imitated you for you to be.
I’ve been changing
And mamma don’t know
Let her tears fall
And make the flowers grow
I am changing
And daddy can see
His reflection
In the mirror of me
To the things that you admired
I caught it
As it came through
Let you be my saviour
Kept it to give you back
Back-to-back
With you
And the heartbeat of the city
In the shadows I made my home
I’ve been changing
And mamma don’t know
Let her tears fall
And make the flowers grow
I am changing
And daddy can see
His reflection
In the mirror of me
Should I regret
These dangerous feeling
But I was born
To feel alone
Without your love
I’m just a stranger
A wilful child
You can’t control
And the heartbeat of the city
In the shadows I made my home
I’ve been changing
And mamma don’t know
Let her tears fall
And make the flowers grow
I am changing
And daddy can see
His reflection
In the mirror of me
Back-to-back
With the spirit holy
Imitated you for you to be.
I’ve been changing
And mamma don’t know
Let her tears fall
And make the flowers grow
I am changing
And daddy can see
His reflection
In the mirror of me

It Will Come To You LP
by ACTORSsupported by 54 fans who also own “Let The Flowers Grow”
It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago.

The London indie group's debut "mini-album" is filled with self-described oddball pop tracks.

The End Is the Beginning
by Mirror Of HazePerfectly gloomy Norwegian goth/post-punk, anchored by a punchy rhythm section and driven by chiming guitar lines and morose vocals.

A bit late to the Shannon Hemmett party, this is her debut EP. Debut album "Ultraviolet" also available and is definitely worth a listen too.
