lyrics

I turn this silver key through required degrees. I'm up through the gears, I'm a ghost on the edge of my seat.
CHORUS: But I won't die, I'll ascend on adrenalin, and besides what kind of heaven would let me in and let me ride right past hell by my reckoning? I'll arrive at two miles per minute, me and machine.
If Death waits round the bend try a different road. Too fast, shoot past, hold on, lean lower than low.
It's a primal ride till the rider disappears. The visor hides the lines behind the years.

True and Fast
by Gaz Brookfield

supported by 7 fans who also own “Me and Machine”

The more recent albums have been good (though I'm still to be convinced by Lost Folk), but this is still Gaz's best album. Cornish Fishing Town is superb (loved the duet with Nick at South Petherton a few years ago), but Knights of the Round Table is another level again - my absolute favourite Gaz song, though not one for live shows, sadly. zummerzet66

I'm sat in our van, in a layby in the Midlands awaiting the exuberant excitement tomorrow... This is where it's at! Love and Light and Laughter to all that made this little slice of magic whilst supporting mental health. Myself, the universe and many others thank you. I don't wanna go home - good job I live in a van 😁 Stella O'Farrell
