I've seen empires rise and fall out of the sky, I've watched history unfold like the iron butterfly I've danced through life with diamonds on my feet Along the road that runs right to my destiny If you wanna walk a mile in my shoes Show me your soul One of these days they'll walk all over you Show me your soul I am the morning star that brightens up the sky I am the rose that plucks the thorns out of your side I am the muse to blinks the angels to your eye As the sorrow that we face defines our joy If you wanna walk a mile in my shoes Show me your soul One of these days they'll walk all over you Show me your soul And your laughter fills with tears And they're falling through the years As the world keeps turning round And there's no time left to cry So your sorrow fills with joy As the road keeps rolling on

Electricity 05:01
Another endless night The shadows on my wall tease the light Pale fingers bleached with waste Though bitter this strychnine leaves no taste Another endless night The bullets in my gun worn by time This time is bleeding out my minutes slow And behind this wall I make my current flow Your electricity pulsing around my veins When you're kissing me, makes me feel alive again When your pulse turns to flow, electricity knowing this place where we belong Your electricity turns me on Another endless night Your voice is all I hear from the outside I take your scent, I breathe you into me Catch the sparks from all your electricity You do this to me Your electricity pulsing around my veins When you're kissing me, makes me feel alive again When your pulse turns to flow, electricity knowing this place where we belong Your electricity turns me on

Can't eat, you can't sleep Watching kiss scars splintering the concrete Where sin town and sick city meet In shock, you're looking good You're just another dog, barking up at Hollywood Just close your eyes and pretend you're alive Wait for your flags to unfurl and bear the weight of the world Under the force of habit And when your bridges all burn, you'll bear the weight of the world Under the force of habit Wanna know what you want Let my libido take you to a restaurant I'll get you drunk and then I'll get you high You lose your mind, you lose your clothes And I won't stop until we're both comatose Just close your eyes and pretend your alive Wait for your flags to unfurl and bear the weight of the world Under the force of habit And when your bridges all burn, you'll bear the weight of the world Under the force of habit So many people that you meet will tell you lies So many places you drag your feet are paradise So many things that you rather be you fantasise And after all you might as well just live your life Wait for your flags to unfurl and bear the weight of the world Under the force of habit And when your bitches all burn, you'll bear the weight of the world Under the force of habit

Butterfly 03:51
Those precious words all trample over my feelings Leaving footprints large as dragon's trails in the wind And the whispers rushing loud as the roar of a jet plane Stops my mind from shutting down my brain Because a red light and a green light means the same to a blind eye We travel to the devil on the back of a butterfly A stop sign on a battle ground, the death of a fantasy We travel to the devil on the back of a butterfly Well I'm tired and I'm weak and I'm lost and I'm cold and I'm lonely Because I feel the same, I feel the same as you And I really want to know what brought down the shadows When our light, when our light was shining through Because a red light and a green light means the same to a blind eye We travel to the devil on the back of a butterfly A stop sign on a battle ground, the death of a fantasy We travel to the devil on the back of a butterfly
5.
As the twilight owns your flesh skin and bones Like a destination carved in stone And silken strands that bind your hands and lead you home As the moonlight brings the shadow things With eyes that glisten golden rings The dark imparts its secret paths to guide you home Hear the thunder rolling out your name Feed the river rushing through your veins your blood destiny From before the flood your path was drawn in blood And now your future's understood Free your anger to feed your hunger, and guide you home Hear the thunder rolling out your name Feed the river rushing through your veins Feel the stormclouds gather in your brain Feed the river rushing through your veins your blood destiny

An EP including the song: "Show Me Your Soul" dedicated to Imelda Marcos, and her legendary shoes. Thanks to Antony Green for the painting of her shoe that constitutes the cover.

Beehive Candy:
Well I have to say having been very impressed with the last release, this latest offering is perhaps even stronger. Great songs, and excellent musicianship and production make Julian a likely contender for much bigger status in the music industry. The song's Electricity & Blood Destiny have to be my favorite's on the EP, lets hope they reach a much wider audience.

Boom Boom Chik:
What amazed me about his music was how different the first EP was form the 2nd. I liked his sound so much that I felt I needed to ask him a few questions about his musical experiences

Back When We Were Beautiful:
Overall it's a great display of Julian's talents and of his variety in music making. The EP is a real musical journey; taking us from grooving pop rock, chilling out with some more mellow tracks and finishing with a real rave of a tune. I urge you to download the EP now!
