Icarus 04:53
Just at the second when you think you like it. Come down. It’s not the same when you’re laying lazy here, two feet on the ground. I know we take it and we feel the lightness. Inside. A second wind and your wings are failing now. Come down. From over there. You fall short. You missed the mark this time. I never said we were safe. So don’t stay too long there, chasing that all-familiar taste. x2 Is it the air up that only binds us, tonight? Another taste and we’ll chase the demons. Outside. It takes second and we feel the lightness. Now we’re falling out of reach and fading now. Cuz you. Fall short. You missed the mark this time. I never said we’re safe. So don’t stay too long there, chasing that all-familiar taste. You fall short. You missed the mark this time. I never said we were safe. I never said we were safe. Cuz you’re chasing that all-familiar taste. Feels like things are over now. Who’s easy on the eyes? The highs and lows are over so, you settled for the skies. You settled for the skies. You settled for the skies. It feels like things are over now. You settled for the skies. The highs and lows are over now, you settled for the skies. Settled for the skies. You settled for the skies.

Lines 04:24
The less you say the more you come around and now I’m feeling strange, so talk it out until the early hours, they turn to morning. Can’t seem to find the phrases cuz my tongue is tied up in the heat. Start freaking out or fall in line. It's all the same to me. I can explain but you’re not making this easy now. Your silence speaks over me. You’re acting out on yourself this time, but I’ll fall in line again. C'mon explain what you’re feeling now, with exchanges from far away. You’re acting out on yourself this time, but I’ll fall in line again. I’ll fall in line. I’ll fall in line again. So raise the stakes and drift away, we find ourselves on empty plains. And through this phase you put the distance on. You and I. Can’t seem to find the common ground that cracks beneath our feet. Start freaking out or fall in line, it’s all the same to me. I can explain but you’re not making this easy now. Your silence speaks over me. You’re acting out on yourself this time, but you fall in line again. C'mon explain what you’re feeling now, with exchanges from far away. You’re acting out on yourself this time, but I’ll fall in line again. Cuz I’ll fall in line again. The sounds you make. They’re colder now. You talk, and you talk, and you talk, and you talk. The sounds you make. They’re colder now. You talk, and you talk, and you talk, and you talk. The sounds you make. They’re colder now. You talk, and you talk, and you talk, and you talk. The sounds you make. They’re colder now. You talk, and you talk, and you talk, and you talk. I can’t explain but you’re not making this easy now. Your silence speaks over me. I’m acting out on myself this time, but you’ll fall in line again. C'mon explain what you’re feeling now, with exchanges from far away. I’m acting out on myself this time, but I’ll fall in line again. Cuz I’ll fall in line again.

Into Shadows 04:52
You shouldn’t take. What’s mine is here tomorrow. So listen, stay awake. Cuz they’ll kill the lights and find you. And the things you preach across the wire couldn’t mean less if you tried to. But you tried it anyway. Shadows claim you. You have turned to this. Shadows hide you. And it’s all about your state of fear. So we watch you break. And you’re comin’ under fire. And there’s a better way than over there, so don’t trip up and deny it, We’re gonna fight you anyway. Shadows claim you. You have turned to this. Shadows hide you. And it’s all about your state of fear. Got you hung up on the rules you cannot obey. Just because we’re winning here, we’re winning here. Now you’re back into the shadows where you point the blame. It’s all about us living here, we’re living here.

Block 04:36
Take it slowly, the thoughts come easy. Rest assured that things will come, with patience. Talk is cheap. When you’re holy. In the end, you’re never sure of what they know. Bruise your head on the past that haunts you. Behind the eyes that’s more than blind intention. Should you stay within the rules that bind you, In the end you’re never sure of what you know. So, who the hell are you? Come on breathe in slowly, I know that we are lonely ‘cause your mind is growin’ old. Will you come to raise the game? But it’s the now that taunts you. It’s all erased from where you once belonged to. So you’re choosing where to lay. Come place your head upon me. ‘Cause in the end we’re never sure of what we know. So, who the hell are you? Come on breathe in slowly. I know that we are lonely ‘cause your mind is growin’ old. Now who the hell are you? Come on breathe in slowly. I know that we are lonely cause your mind is growin’ old.

about

Count the Thief have discovered previously unreleased material that was recorded in Bangkok in 2016.

These tracks were intended as a follow-up to their award winning first release - New Role (2015) - and were the first tracks they recorded as a then newly formed four-piece, but the songs never saw the light of day... until now.

Marvin, at Tide Studio in London, has rediscovered, re-mixed and re-mastered these five tracks in the form of THE LOST ICARUS EP which is out on 21st November 2021 with the track-list as follows:
