	When a person falls from grace they don't usually land gently. Here's a bitter song for you angst ridden people out there. mortimer's finest hour.
	Credits: Bensi, Hampshire, Kent
	Story Behind the Song Marco and Rich were snowboarding in La Plagne, France residing in Chalet Dede when their friend James opened up a magazine and said 'Open up a magazine...' and Rich suggested they try and write a song around that. So for the next few hours Jim, Rich, Marco and another friend Orb worked on lyrics. Lena contibuted parts of the second verse. The main verse riff B, Bm7, E and the rockier A to F# was written there and then. This was a real team effort and the song was finished the next day. Rich showed it to Ben when they got back and they polished it up together. Matt's drums are great on this. He came up with his bits almost straight away. mortimer's sound is so evident here. Lyrics Open up a magazine, its your face I see Dressed up, made up, a fake reality. I read about your life, your friends, it's all for show. What you do, who you see and where you like to go It's too hard to shut you out, you're always on TV Turn down, turn off, it's like your watching me You've always talked about being a famous star But we both know where you've been and who you really are... who you really are.. When your day in the sun clouds over I won't be there to shelter you But if there's light at the end of the tunnel why won't you let me over the wall That's surrounding you That's surrounding you That's surrounding you You're not a headline on the frontpage anymore Shut out, burned out, media whore Early morning slots are all that you can get If they don't see your face they'll soon forget Who you really are... When your day in the sun clouds over I won't be there to shelter you But if there's light at the end of the tunnel why won't you let me over the wall That's surrounding you
