About In Shreds
Mark Burgess says: "My favourite all time Chameleons recording. This version WAS mixed in 15 mins. We broke for Christmas and wanted a version we could listen to over the holidays, in the end we wanted to go with it, because it was by far the best mix." Guitarist Reg Smithies says: "I was inspired by Killing Joke for this riff." .
In Shreds Lyrics
[00:31.01] I grasp at lifes fading light
[00:35.59] I need you tonight
[00:38.53] I need to be heard
[00:42.12] Your acts speak lowder than words
[00:45.17] Ignored by you all
[00:48.62] I stumble and fall
[00:52.03] I suddenly knew
[00:55.24] My life meant nothing at all
[01:01.73] In shreds
[01:05.19] I stare down at the street
[01:08.19] Yearning for sleep
[01:12.19] That blissful escape
[01:15.16] But when it comes it's always too late
[01:18.66] The whore in my bed
[01:22.13] The noise in my head
[01:25.24] A hole in my pride
[01:28.74] It's coming and there's nowhere to hide
[01:44.72] It seems to me
[01:48.77] To be so contradictory
[01:52.28] It seems to me
[01:55.20] You count your blessings while they're there
[01:59.74] Ignored by you all
[02:02.20] I stumble and fall
[02:06.27] I suddenly knew
[02:09.26] My life meant nothing at all
[02:12.77] The whore in my bed
[02:15.77] The noise in my head
[02:19.33] A hole in my pride
[02:22.30] It's coming and there's nowhere to hide
[02:25.73] It seems to me
[02:28.80] To be so contradictory
[02:32.32] It seems to me
[02:35.83] You count your blessings while they're there
[02:42.84] You count your blessings while they're there
[02:49.44] You count your blessings while they're there
[03:04.01] It seems to me
[03:08.06] To be so contradictory
[03:12.58] It seems to me
[03:16.16] You've become a part of the machinery
[03:20.19] You've become a part of the machinery
[03:29.27] Machinery
[03:35.25] Machinery
