Turin Brakes are a modern folk pop duo comprising two friends Olly Knights and Gale Paridjanian, hailing from Balham, London, signed to the Source label. Turin Brakes have often been compared to many of the New Acoustic Movement's bands spawned in the late 90's such as Elbow, Starsailor, I Am Kloot (who actually were a support band for Turin Brakes on their Ether Song tour) and the Norwegian band the Kings of Convenience. Their debut album "The Optimist LP" (2001) was nominated for the Mercury Prize that same year. In 2003 "Ether Song" got to #3 in the UK album charts and spawned a Top 5 single "Pain Killer". Further commercial success was not achieved.

Building Wraps Around Me Lyrics
Turin Brakes
I may be bleeding, but I don't care
See where I'm leading, see I'm almost there
These days lost their meaning, but I don't care
But still we're all breathing, so cry if you dare
With the world before me to break my fall
And this wind behind me warm
The street lights embrace me, see I close my eyes
They're building wraps around me
Everyone's sleeping, but I don't care
Cos I can see reason, flowing through the air
Here comes some feeling, that no walls can hold
And clear and relieving us from the cold
With the world before me to break my fall
And this wind behind me warm
The street lights embrace me, see I close my eyes
They're building wraps around me
With the world before me to break my fall
And this wind behind me warm
The street lights embrace me, see I close my eyes
They're building wraps around me
