A Bloodrunner Conspiracy

Borderline an achilles heel
So allow me to sweeten the deal
And fall into you
Break the ice in the desert sun
Convince yourself the battle's won
No one will even care
Lifeless gray and barren streets
A bloodrunner conspiracy
Shine a light where light never thrives
Possibilities of greed
A king's ransom of empathy
Pile it higher than these vacant skies
Idle eyes see through it all
From the origins to the curtain call
Alive on a dime
Revolution we know it well
These good intentions paved this road to hell
Our own hell
Lifeless gray and barren streets
A bloodrunner conspiracy
Shine a light where light never thrives
Possibilities of greed
A king's ransom of empathy
Pile it higher than these vacant skies
Flood upon flood
Is it ever enough?
We put it all on a midnight sun
To show us everything
Under the weather and over the moon
We kiss and tell that all is well again
Again and again
Shine a light, shine a light, shine a light
Shine a light, shine a light, shine a light
Shine a light, shine a light
Shine a light where light never thrives
Lifeless gray and barren streets
A bloodrunner conspiracy
Shine a light where light never thrives
Possibilities of greed
A king's ransom of empathy
Pile it higher than these vacant skies
Higher than these vacant skies
Higher than these vacant skies

John Lancaster Huntington, West Virginia
Solo outlet for Huntington, WV based musician who has previously fronted such bands as Chum, 4 Ohm Mono and Earth to Eros to name a few.
John Lancaster recommends:
In The City's Arms
by Black Sugar Transmission
Andee Blacksugar combines elements of electronic, pop and rock sensibilities with subtle glimpses of off the charts musicianship. Great songs and hooks that won’t let go.

In The Dead, Dead Wood
by Vennart
Mike Vennart (ex-Oceansize) continues to kill it on his own. Top tier songwriting accentuated with seasoned dynamics, strong vocal performances, fuzzed out riffs, and an excellent production.

No One Loves You Like I Do
by The Life and Times
I could easily mention any TLAT release here, but “No One Loves You Like I Do” has always been front and center for me courtesy of their masterful blend of melody, atmosphere and emotion.
