Drowning 02:57
CAN YOU LEARN TO START AGAIN? WHEN IT FEELS LIKE YOU CANT CARRY ON. NO HOPE AND AND DROWNING IN THE DEEP END. KEPT A PRISONER BY ALL YOUR MEMORIES. THE GRIEF SLOWLY EATS AWAY MY TIME. AN APPARITION IN THE CORNER OF THE ROOM. AlWAYS WATCHING ME. FROM THE SHADOWS IN THE CORNER IF THE ROOM FEEL THE SUNLIGHT ON YOUR FACE. MAYBE FIND SOME PEACE OF MIND IN TIME. LOST AND DROWNING IN MY BLACK SEA. KEPT A PRISONER BY YOUR SWEET MELODY. THE GRIEF SLOWLY EATS AWAY MY TIME. AN APPARITION IN THE CORNER OF THE ROOM. AlWAYS WATCHING ME. FROM THE SHADOWS IN THE CORNER IF THE ROOM. I LOVED YOU. OH HOW I LOVED YOU. I HATE TO SAY I LOVED YOU. BUT OH HOW I LOVED YOU. THE GRIEF SLOWLY EATS AWAY MY TIME. AN APPARITION IN THE CORNER OF THE ROOM. AlWAYS WATCHING ME. FROM THE SHADOWS IN THE CORNER IF THE ROOM.

GLOWING A STRANGE NEON PINK THE APPARITION APPEARED FOR THE FIRST TIME IN ALMOST A YEAR. HEHAD SOMEHOW CONVINCED HIMSELF THE HAUNTING HAD STOPPED, THAT HE WAS SAFE AND COULD FINALLY MOVE ON. HE HAD FELT IT'S PRESENCE FOUR TIMES THE PREVIOUS WEEK AND IT HAD LEFT HIM FEELING RATHER UNEASY. A SICK FEELING THAT HE COULD ALMOST FEEL IN HIS TEETH. THAT HE COULD ALMOST FEEL IN HIS TEETH. THE APPARITION. SOUND AND VISION. NOBODY ELSE COULD FEEL THE SENSE OF DREAD THAT RUSHES OVER HIM WHEN THE APPARITION MOVES BACK INSIDE HIS HEAD. SO HE WALKS DOWN TO THE FIRST PLACE HE GAZED UPON IT. HE SCREAMED OUT I'M SORRY IN TO THE COOL AUTUMN AIR AND FELT A RELEASE LETTING GO OF SOMETHING WOUND TIGHTLY INSIDE AND WITH THAT. PEACE. THE APPARITION. SOUND AND VISION. YESTERDAY IN MOURNING

Hold On 04:51
EVERYTHING IN THE WRONG PLACE. TRYING TO FIND OUR OWN SPACE. EVERYONE IN THIER OWN HEAD. WE CARRY ALL OUR REGRETS. I CAN'T HOLD ON HERE ANYMORE. I CAN'T HOLD ON TO THIS ANYMORE. I CAN'T HOLD ON HERE ANYMORE. I CAN'T HOLD ON TO YOU ANYMORE. MEMORIES OVERWHELMING. I CAN ALMOST TOUCH THEM. FOR EVERY HEART THAT'S BROKEN. ALL GOODBYES SHOULD BE SUDDEN. I CAN'T HOLD ON HERE ANYMORE. I CAN'T HOLD ON TO THIS ANYMORE. I CAN'T HOLD ON HERE ANYMORE. I CAN'T HOLD ON TO YOU ANYMORE. TWISTED UP INSIDE.

Exhibit A 03:08
AM I LOSING YOU AGAIN? THE FEAR IS KEEPING ME AWAY AT NIGHT. YOU SLEEP WITH YOUR BACK TURNED TO ME. WHILE I STARE AT THE CEILING. I CANT FIND THE ENERGY TO MAKE THIS RIGHT. ITS GETTING EASIER TO LET THIS DIE. I SLIP OUT THE DOOR BEFORE YOU GET BACK FROM WORK. NURSING A PINT IN THE CORNER OF THAT PUB YOU ALWAYS HATED. ITS SO HARD TO FACE THE TRUTH. ITS EVEN HARDER TO FACE YOU. AM I LOSING YOU AGAIN? I DONT THINK I REALLY WANT TO KNOW. YOU SLEEP WITH YOUR BACK TURNED TO ME. MAYBE YOU DREAM OF FREEDOM. HOW DID WE LET COME TO THIS AGAIN. I KNOW THAT I CAN DRAIN YOUR ENERGY. NOW THE SKIES IS FALLING IN ON US. OH HOW I WISH FOR AN ALTERNATE ENDING. I SLEEP IN OUR FRONT ROOM AS WE LET OUR LEASE RUN OUT. I SLIP OUT THE DOOR BEFORE YOU GET BACK FROM WORK. NURSING A PINT IN THE CORNER OF THAT PUB YOU ALWAYS HATED. ITS SO HARD TO FACE THE TRUTH. ITS EVEN HARDER TO FACE YOU.

Grey Thursday morning. Bleak September haze. I think you found me wanting. Your love again. Asked how I was doing. Thought you’d forgotten me. I imagine waves crashing on some distant sea. God how I remember you. In a run down bar beautiful and smiling perched on a stool. Wish that I could have held back the hands time. Fixed like a postcard of my life. The architect. Like a postcard from an Ex. You left me out here living alone. I guess is fallen through the cracks in my mind.

The Ship 03:43
Fear of sleep I meet you there. In the dark we are unmasked. I can’t find any satisfaction. Can’t seem to find any peace of mind .I was crawling over broken glass. To find my way in to the light.I can’t find any resolution . Can’t seem to find any peace of mind. Board the ship to the end. Sail to the Abbys. Fear of death. Alone at the end. In its jaws a child again. You won’t find any hidden meaning. As you wait for oblivion. I can hear you screaming silent. I can feel all lovers fade. You won’t find any hidden meaning. As you wait for oblivion. Fear of sleep I meet you there. Board the ship to the end. Sail to the Abbys.

Monolith 02:31
She said baby it’s gonna be fine. Nobody died. Besides I know you’ll never really leave your wife. He can give me peace of mind and security maybe this could have worked out in another life. A new life. Real life. Like still life. in some half life. She said baby I promise it’s gonna be fine just give it time Our love was suffocating and divine. I’ll take a piece of you with me forever a new life Our love was flawed heaven hard to survive A new life. Real life. Like still life. in some half life.

Camel Blues 03:33
She’s fading. Slowly burning fire. A comedown. Love expire. A shifting to another place. Love fading. Hides it’s face. And When you’re coming down can you still find a place for me now? So December breaks us apart. While you move in I’m in the dark. I’m damaged. Drag you down with me. A breakdown. Dark energy. A shifting to another place. Love fading. Hides it’s face. And When you’re coming down can you still find a place for me now? So December breaks us apart. While you move in I’m in the dark.

I took my eye off the ball put your back up against the wall. I didn’t see it coming up behind us. I didn’t see you slip away. If I could burn down all my mistakes for you. Take a match to all my regrets. Take back everything I said. I would keep the door wide open for you. Take match to all my regrets and burn down everything. A room full of memories is all that’s left behind. Full of stuff we both owned just to fill a void. If I could burn down all my mistakes for you. Take a match to all my regrets. Take back everything I said. I would keep the door wide open for you. Take match to all my regrets and burn down everything. I’m losing control

Mourning 03:45
It seems like forever since you moved out of this place and left me alone the flat we shared for 2 months, 3 weeks and six days. I still love you, I hate to admit it to myself. I've only just been able to say that out loud. The last cup you drank from I never washed up. Is that pathetic? There's a book on the coffee table that you never finished. It was almost 6 weeks before I could even venture outside. I forgot to eat and the days they seemed to run in to each other. You see I've been having trouble sleeping. I spent yesterday in mourning. The last cup you drank from I never washed up. Is that pathetic? There's a book on the coffee table that you never finished.

I Remain 02:57
GONE FOREVER THE LOVER LEFT ALONE. CASTING SHADOWS BLOCK OUT THE SUN ON A LOOP. IN MY HEAD DRINKING BRUISED HALF DEAD FALLEN BROKEN FALSE MEMORIES PLAY AGAIN ON A LOOP IN MY HEAD SHE’S MOVED ON BUT STILL HANGS HEAVY. ON A LOOP IN MY HEAD. AND I REMAIN

Cross Wires Romford, UK

As heard on BBC 6 Music (Steve Lamacq/Tom Robinson) Radio X (John Kennedy) KCRW (Henry Rollins)

“Half way through Yesterday In Mourning, it begins to dawn on you that all Cross Wire’s songs are relatable on first exposure – an underlying sense of familiarity which you can’t always put your finger on leading you down darkly fascinating avenues” - Louder Than War
