about
A song of stark contrasts, with male and female vocals alternating between verses and choruses in a haunting melody. Eerie guitars create the mood and from the smouldering rubble in the climactic epilogue guitar solos rise through the ash.
"And in my mind, cemented scenes.. soldier on."
This song was first recorded as a demo in 1991 but not properly recorded until it's inclusion in the double album "Getting Off At Redfern" some 18 years later.

lyrics
NAPALM
(Copyright 1991 Rob Bender)
1. Holding on, till the rest, has come and gone . . .
Counting down, all nine lives, until there's none . . .
CH.
No escape, hot as sun, but you'll never out-run
(The napalm)
2. The rain comes down, in steady streams,
On and on, more than some,
And in my mind, cemented scenes, soldier on.
3. We time-line through, a thousand years,
A dot in time, we're here and gone,
A little lie won't do, any harm . . .
But I could be wrong . . .
CH.
No escape, hot as sun, but they never can run . . .
(From the napalm)
