lyrics

The blossom falls
As blossom does
And it covers the ground
Covers the mud
Covers the fallen
Covers the pain
On this field of battle
In the pouring rain

The tears they fall
Forever more
Onto your pictures
Then onto the floor
They rise into stromclouds
And drop to the earth
One day they’ll live on
In another Childs birth

Switch to another time
A fair few lifetimes on
When the dead are long forgotten
And the summers days are long
Switch to another life
I can see your face right there
A different generation
But I know those eyes, I’ve seen that stare

You’re a connection
A conduit
A wormhole, a link
Into your eyes
A nation could sink

It’s not the final hours
It’s not the tolling bell
The history’s been written
But you’re not alone
We’re here as well

We’ve always loved you
Though never known your name
Your memories live with us
Through every splash
Of falling rain

The blossom falls
It covers all the lies
The eloquence that brought you here
Blossom falling on dead eyes

Paint it white
Paint it gray
You can paint it
All your given days
The colours may change
But what’s beneath remains the same
We give our lives to progress
We pour them down the drain

Keep your head up
There’s nothing you can do
Decisions are made everyday
For me and you
The winter may come
As ice around your heart
Don’t let it be over
Before the start

The blossom falls
It covers all the lies
The eloquence that brought you here
Blossom falling on dead eyes

Mike Kershaw Wakefield, UK

My music is for the most part atmospheric progressive rock but I leave myself free to drift in any musical direction I choose within the structure of an album.
The songs explore a range of emotions but have a melancholy core whilst still remaining powerful and lyrically interesting. ... more
