No Comfort From Your Skin
I've recently come across this song by Boy Cried Wolf which I actually like a lot, and since it features lyrics from Nicky (or so google says), I'd love to know what the song actually says.
I managed to undestand a few bits, but I'd love to know if the lyrics are available somewhere. Thanks

Also features James of course, great song.
Here's my best effort at transcribing the lyrics for you, I'm pretty sure with most of it except the end of the second line ("and then I'll follow too"?). ________________________________________ Get no comfort from your skin God's forsaken you, and then I'll follow too Oh somebody help me save me from myself Save me from myself, save me from myself You're not made for this world You're on your own again And you always feel a pain, yeah the feelings stay the same It's written in her name It breaks my heart More and more each day It takes my heart Further away She's picking me apart With the weight of her words And killing my desire Close down your blackened eyes There's nothing left to hide Oh, life goes on, guilt remains, it never goes away It'll never go away Nothing makes much sense to me We've all made some mistakes Oh, you didn't have to break, no you didn't have to leave, Why did you have to leave? It breaks my heart More and more each day It takes my heart Further Away She's picking me apart With the weight of her words And killing my desire *guitar solo* It breaks my heart More and more each day It takes my heart Further Away She's picking me apart With the weight of her words And killing my desire It breaks my heart (You get no comfort from your skin) Oh, it breaks my heart (You get no comfort from your skin) You know it breaks my heart (You get no comfort from your skin) You know it breaks my heart My heart, my heart It breaks my heart (You get no comfort from your skin) You know it breaks my heart My heart, my heart Yeah it breaks my heart You know it breaks my heart My heart

He also blatantly stole the melody of the chorus for the INWJTEOL b-side Distractions.

Thank you so much, Porco, I really appreciate your effort! It actually sounds like something that Nicky would write. Thanks to whoever moved my thread to the right place, I honestly had no idea where to post this

James is on lead guitar and some of the backing vocals (the "(You get no comfort from your skin)"s for example, take another listen!) It actually had a physical release, The Firebrand EP. James also does some harmonies on The Firebrand (the track). I'll post a pic in a sec. *edit* CD back cover:

This song actually never gets old. Verse lyrics are Nicky, chorus is Wayne. I always thought James' vocals were pretty audible.

I really like The Firebrand EP and Forever Is a Dirty Word grew on me, then absolutely nothing. Anyone know if they're up to anything at the moment?

I'm sure there was meant to be an EP this time last year. Don't think it ever surfaced.
