And their songs, also in no particular order:
No one is ever going to want me - Giles Corey
"The song draws on the classic concept of "The Hedgehog's Dilemma", where the singer feels desperately lonely but at the same time is aware that his defences against getting hurt by others is actively sabotaging his ability to create and maintain healthy relationships. The "Bridge of Sighs" is reference to the Ponte dei Sospiri in Venice, a bridge leading to the city's prison, giving convicts one last chance to view the beauty of the city before being cut off from it forever. The singer realizes that his growing bitterness is pushing him further and further away from the human connection that he seems to see other people enjoying, but at the same time cannot help but slip further into loneliness and despair."
