The latest from Spirit Level features RayC; I`m very happy he could relate to this song and accepted the invite to contribute a great bass track.

Dark Star Cathedral


read me your needle Dark Star Cathedral
all systems go gauges floored
counting from ten we take off on amen
light breaks through the door
light breaks through light breaks through
light breaks through the door

boys in helmets our rust box welded
for holes in science prepared
this is Dream Eclipse 876
strapped in saying a prayer
strapped in strapped in this is your captain
strapped in saying a prayer

battered hopeful where it don`t show
the crew of Dark Star Cathedral

stick to your mission I copy your vision
keep the Prime Directive intact
never repeat mistakes in space
with gods and girls make contact
gods and girls gods and girls
make first contact

this is Dream Eclipse 876
come in Dark Star Cathedral
more than carbon genius trumps jargon
aliens are my kind of people
aliens aliens blue with radiance
my kind of people

battered hopeful where it don`t show
the crew of Dark Star Cathedral
