I control everything you do
You do exactly as I want you to
You don't even know that I exist
But I got you clenched up inside my fist
I am an author
I put you all inside my book
I am an author
I put you all inside my book
I am your creator
And I'm the man you've all been waiting for
You are all part of my family tree
Every one of you is a little bit of me
I am an author
I put you all inside my book
I am an author
I put you all inside my book
The angel sent you (I said he would)
Just like I meant him to

Actor

An aged man assumes a stance
That fits him like a glove
The tape unwinds and in advance
We hear of how he lost his nerve
In words that never were his own
He places heart and soul
A personality alone
He's there but he's not in control
There's nothing worse than an actor
The tired eyes and the quiet voice
I would never be an actor
The actor never has a choice
He bares the scars of experience to his audience of pain
He's purged himself of innocence
He's an illusion, he's insane
Naked self-inflicted wounds
Of the mental kind
Glorified in dressing rooms
They're not so very hard to find
There's nothing worse than an actor
The tired eyes and the quiet voice
I would never be an actor
The actor never has a choice

My Room

I'm all alone here in my room
Each day is like the one before
No one comes to see me
And there's nowhere I can go
I have a talking picture
Tells me all I need to know
There are no windows in my room
There is no sunlight shines in here
Life is very different from the way it used to be
The world outside's a memory
Or was it just a dream
I don't know why they're keeping me alive
Will I ever know what it's like to die?
I'm all alone here in my room
I'm plugged into my machine
I don't want to live like this
But it isn't up to me
And if I could I'd tell them
Cut the wires and set me free

Radio Ghosts Scotland, UK
Cultish spectres Radio Ghosts first appeared in Glasgow, Scotland, as post-alternative noise tunesters. They have now spread
outwith any physical, and in many ways paraphysical, boundaries. You're welcome to come visit, any time.

Radio Ghosts recommends:
Chad is wonderful. Inventive, intriguing, reflective, crazy, visual. And Blood Machine is the best song ever, and that’s factual.

Angular but melodic. Dancey but stop-start rhythms. Noisy but subtle. Thought-provoking subjects and lyrics.

If indie pop went on a date with grunge, it would sound like London band Flowers' contribution to Slumberland's singles series.

An essential greatest hits compilation from pioneering indie pop band Bis is packed full of candy hooks and punk politics.

Sparkling synthpop with an emphasis on high-wattage chords and the kind of melodies that burrow themselves deep in the brain.
