Solitude, an illusion I conjured up to comfort myself Why should I stand here and waste away? I've had enough of living in the decay Will something better come to me? Running around and around in my head A question remains - am I better off dead? Don't just accept that this is the way it is You have a way out Take the step beyond We built this up to burn it down Fall from such heights, now watch us drown Reach out and take it with both hands You never know if you'll get another chance Approaching the end I see the light in front of me Slowly fading out We built this up to burn it down Fall from such heights, now watch us drown We always said forever, we always lied And I always said 'never’, at least I tried You wanna see where we go from here? Choose your path, dig your grave

Charlotte and Steph were teachers And they taught me a thing or two About living life the right wrong way And the things we shouldn't do Well I guess they were kind of cute They'd have to do All curly hair and glasses And butterfly tattoos Let's get this party started 'cause I'm afraid Of what might happen When it stops I don't want to be alone But I don't want to be with you I know it's confusing darling It scares the hell out of me too So, what do you say? Come home with me? We'll scratch that surface to the bone For a while every blonde in black looked like you For a while I thought I was okay and I'd pull through I don't want to be alone But I don't want to be with you I know it's confusing darling It scares the hell out of me too Fuck this town Lets burn it down We're all so proud Now watch us drown For a while every blonde in black looked like you For a while I thought I was okay and I'd pull through Let's get this party started 'cause I'm afraid Of what might happen When it stops Let's get this party started 'cause I'm afraid Of what might happen When it stops For a while every blonde in black looked like you For a while I thought I was okay and I'd pull through We are friends, although no longer lover's Is that so wrong? We don’t play well with other's We are friends, although no longer lover's Is that so wrong? We don’t play well with other's We don't play well with other's We don't play well with other's

about

Oaths Manchester, UK

“Taking an Oath: A solemn appeal to a deity, or to some revered person or thing, to witness one's determination to speak the truth, to keep a promise.”

These three Mancunian natives may have been around for a while. However, you shouldn’t let that fool you.

2020 is a year of renaissance for Oaths. Stoking a fire that may have once waned, Oaths are prepared to burn brighter than ever.
