about
Written around the winter solstice 2020, this song is about the isolation, fear and despair that surrounded the atmosphere at that time. As well as turning inwards to feel better.
lyrics
Snow falls from a silver sky
It’s colder now but I don’t think that
I could feel a beat shifting in my feet
It’s quiet now, but will it last?
I can’t seem to forget the past
I don’t think I’ll ever know
Did I lie, or did I show?
Rainbows in the window panes
Winter season’s taking names
Will it be alright again?
Fight the beast and we can win
I see it coming like Rippers in the night
Dying for our last breath
but we won’t give up the fight
I’m crying, reliving pain from long ago
Every moment’s dying and we just have to
Let go, now, let go
Give me to the season let it dance across my heart
Falling through the tragedy that keeps us all apart
It’s getting clearer, a light’s been growing in the dark
Now a fire’s burning. Could you please provide a spark?
The sun is setting on a long and lonely time
A new day will be dawning and soon we’ll see the light
