Mannequins



He often made mannequins Happy

In those charming Ways

Children smoke consider life a joke

The audience guessed the next rhyme he said



Beside the mind shaft

The Gun shooters

Are all so negative



He kicked up his heels

For the fire had died

Lived for the freedom

He may of just lied



Then there is a man whose touch was so gentle, it was a hard hand to hold careful to mould your temptations and fights that cross beyond time.



He went in to lions dens

Puts his hands on girls hair felt flames in his finger tips



He kicked up his heels and the fire had died lived for his freedom he may have just lied



Kicked up his heels

Reminds me a lot of Frusciante's solo stuff.

This is fantastic! Awesome mixing too.

Drums crazy timings.  Bass rings are mad too.  Well mixed.  Did you play the guitars?

cool stuff.. i like the crunchiness of it and the acoustic guitar is rad

I like the melodic shifts

Thanks for the feedback people. smile

cTrix I didn't play the guitars, they were all played by Andy Harrison (a very talented guitarist from Belfast, N. Ireland)

Fantastic! smile
