    SOUNDTRACK: Honest by Band of Skulls

    July 14, 2023 / 1 Comment

    Soundtrack to Society of Beasts: The Soldier and the Spy by Annabelle Greene

    Honest by Band of Skulls for a book about a young man with secrets taking on a grizzled old soldier with a closely guarded heart.

    You gotta be honest
    You gotta be guarded
    Sure I’m gonna say
    Right on the inside, that is the hardest, the hardest game to play.
    You sorted it all out and managed to slip through the night into the day.
    Life and the soul do you ever get lonely?
    I’m goin’ take you on.

    Found the way to understand the time your burning.
