Seabirds circle under storm clouds in the harbour
The crane turns
A distant song of sirens drifting through the silence
The sky churns
Gone but always here
Scars never disappear
Waves break into crystal
Windows shake and whistle
Hide inside
Bay lights fade and flicker
Feel her coming nearer on my blindside
Gone but always here
Scars never disappear
All I need is near
Scars never disappear
Everything I own
Is stitched and sewn into the scars that made me
A man of skin and bone
Naked alone
Walking into the boiling sea
CIRCU5 is:
Steve Tilling - vocals, guitar
Paul Clark - lead guitar, vocals
Mark Kilminster - bass, vocals
Lee Moulding - drums, vocals

Watch the video for SKIN MACHINE by CIRCU5. Please share!
None of the others can give you what you need
I'll make them suffer and make you want me
You are the one
Now prove them wrong
Let’s pull the wires from the machinery
And start a funeral pyre with our dark alchemy
Jagged tongues of fire will caress and consume them
Kneeling to admire our divinity
Holding me close, she said…
Left to corrode, an outmoded device
Reset the code and perfect your disguise
Programmed to oppress with no hope of redemption
Mechanical made of flesh, toy messiah will rise
Twisting the rope, she said…
Break free from your skin machine
Let me be your Magdalene
Or go back to your old routines
On with the show
None of the others can give you what you need
I'll make them suffer and make you want me
You are the one
Now prove them wrong
Let’s pull the wires from the machinery
And start a funeral pyre with our dark alchemy
Time to learn, never turn, watch them burn…

Roll up, freaks...
Amid the pestilence, we've been busy demoing new CIRCU5 songs for the next albumen. Here's one called Skin Machine. It's a work-in-progress... no vocals as yet, and contributions are on the way from Paul Clark and Mark Kilminster.
But to whet your appetite, here's Lee Moulding doing a live drum take from his studio today. Talented bugger...
More bare-all snippets to come!

Think CIRCU5, think compelling conceptual rock with a progressive twist, wrapped in a story about a child raised as a psychopath. CIRCU5 (pronounced ‘circa five’) is the brainchild of Steve Tilling – a British multi-instrumentalist and guitarist/vocalist for TC&I (the band of Colin Moulding and Terry Chambers from XTC).
The CIRCU5 band features Steve on vocals and guitar, Paul Clark (ex-David Cross Band) on guitar and vocals, Mark Kilminster (ex-Tin Spirits) on bass and vocals, and Lee Moulding (TC&I and Rewire the Time Machine) on drums and vocals.
The debut CIRCU5 album features guest performances from Dave Gregory (XTC, Big Big Train), Phil Spalding (Mike Oldfield), Matt Backer (Julian Lennon), Alan van Kleef (Rachel Stamp), Johnny Warman (Peter Gabriel) and Andy Neve (Steve Hackett).
The CIRCU5 album is available on CD in a book-style package with a 28-page booklet, download card and 'secret' document from various retailers and at www.circu5.com. To find out more, visit www.circu5.com
