Bandwidth Bandito A powerful voice that carries you along on some epic rock journeys through the human condition. The arrangements are expertly executed and create a very professional yet personal sound. This is a thinking persons rock band and I swear the lead singer has four sets of lungs! Favorite track: In Cold Blood.

I am ready to strike, don't step into my sights I can kill with a lie I am the fortress of power, I am the man of the hour I am invincible now No, I don't feel a thing, and a laugh hides what's within And no-one can hurt me again, I have learned how to win Fortunate son, second to none But I have become... Colder than space, and all that I say is Falling away... Into the dark, to be lost in the night Where no-one can tell how I long for the light Where I'm starting to see I can't play the game anymore Can I start to believe I won't be this way anymore? We risk all our life, when it's all we have For what we've given the time, we got nothing back We're risking our life, when it's all we have For what we've given the time, I want something back I promise you I won't play the game anymore If you guarantee I won't feel this way anymore That I could be human again, that I could be whole That I'd be forgiven, to laugh from my soul

After Dark 04:30
I remember how I took your hand And we walked out on the water I remember all the promises I made How I meant to make them last forever Now I won't let you go Like I did before I turned my back, but now I find You were with me all the time All my life, only a breath away I am trying hard to find myself a way I can be something better So I won't let you go Like I did before now I turned my back, but now I find You were with me all the time All my life, only a breath away Eclipse has passed and now I see You were always there for me All my life, only a breath away I remember how I took your hand I remember all the promises I made

You begin creeping and crawling in Charming with words so sweet Promises you won't keep We went down to your house But all of the while a voice was crying "Run away from this now" You took my hand, pulled me close And whispered the honeyed words designed To hold me under your spell Just long enough Black heart proud I can just see you now Laughing as we lay down Ready to wipe me out Out all night, chasing the dark delight Kissing me in cold blood Twisting the truth of love The perfume of romance, the tender desire It is all gone now The madness of moments, the end of the lie It has all come down You took what you wanted, you buried the hope Our struggle is over, but I want you to know The triumph in your eyes will turn into dread You see, I'm not dead Don't stop the fight, I'm still alive This is the day you die

Down in the dark, down in the quiet part Of every human heart There is a voice that cuts through all our noise And tells us who we are Come, Spirit fall down We can feel the presence now, we can sense it all around Stripping back veils that cover all hearts So no-one can deny the crown No-one can resist the sound Calling us home Here every argument has come to naught Every willful thought And though some hearts are proud and though some doubt Every knee shall bow The hour has arrived, the last days of men When kingdoms collide, the lame walk again The hour has arrived, the lost shall be found When kingdoms collide, the deaf hear the sound The hour has arrived, the Earth see the signs When kingdoms collide, sight for the blind The hour has arrived, the Son casts His light When kingdoms collide, dead men shall rise
