about

Now with the end of Lockdown in sight, Armstrong return once again “diving deep with meaningful lyrics” (ROCK COVEN) with an all new sound “Home Street Bleeding”. Tom had the rest of the band on his back about writing the lyrics for this song idea that he missed the deadline for, and had been postponing for a while, at the same time he was trying to make other decisions in his life that were going to impact him and his girlfriend that he had been delaying too. “I was ill, bedridden and feeling sorry for myself… I just started thinking about how they were being held back and having their time wasted, all because I couldn’t get my act together, and that I was the reason that they weren’t moving forward in their life, they were just left to ‘bleed out’ on their ‘home street’.”

“This is anthemic indie rock at its finest”
- THE CURVE MAGAZINE 2021

“This song masterfully mixes frustration, sadness, hopelessness, and hope to leave you with a melody that will pick you up when life knocks you down. I think this is Armstrong's best work yet.”
- UNQUALIFIED MUSIC CRITICS 2021

lyrics

Tv on
Till I fall asleep and my mind's gone
Got the boys on my back till it cracks and the lines come

But you need it
You been chained to your bed I can feel it
Dragging you on and on while you're Home Street Bleeding

Cut ties and loosen hands
Shut eyes and losing out
Cut ties and loosen hands
Shut eyes and losing out

No I know it wasn't you
No I know it wasn't you
No I know it wasn't you

My lover
Tired of toeing the line like my brothers
Got the dogs off their lead tryna breathe in a stutter

She don't need it
Never thought you'd get caught in the freezing
Pull your own and a stone now you're Home Street Bleeding

Cut ties and loosen hands
Shut eyes and losing out
Cut ties and loosen hands
Shut eyes and losing out

No I know it wasn't you
No I know it wasn't you
No I know it wasn't you
No I know it wasn't you
(She Don't Need it) No I know it wasn't you
(She Don't Need it) No I know it wasn't you
(She Don't Need it) No I know it wasn't you
(She Don't Need it) No I know it wasn't you
(Hey!)

Cut ties and loosen hands
Shut eyes and losing out
Cut ties and loosen hands
Shut eyes and losing out
