Gafffer tape, gaffer tape, gaffer tape....
I thought it sounded just like Jaffa Cakes on first listen.

I heard he was a little too late.
God, what a mess, on the ladder of success
Where you take one step and miss the whole first rung

Re: Misheard Lyrics
Not a misheard lyric but one I'm trying to work out. Line in question is at the end of every chorus, firstly at 1:05. Google search turns up "Lit your fire and never cease" but I'm not convinced that's correct.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

When my wife first heard "mirror in the bathroom" she told me to turn it off. She thought it said "N-word in the bathroom"

I remember my Mam thinking "Someday you'll meet your rocking chair" in Bankrobber was "fucking chair", and asking why they had to swear.Mark^Bastard wrote: ↑03 Feb 2022, 6:09pmWhen my wife first heard "mirror in the bathroom" she told me to turn it off. She thought it said "N-word in the bathroom"

Re: Misheard Lyrics
It sounds to me like there's an "and" before "never cease."

Re: Misheard Lyrics
John, here's the isolated part of the vocal you need.
I still think it's "Blades of fire never cease".

Hope it's of some help.
