lyrics

Hello hello come gather round
Birds of all kinds come listen closely
I've grown so weak so I'll sing quietly
But quiet's enough, isn't it

I'd give away my life for one glimpse of hope
But since I can not I give myself to this song
Let it start quiet and grow into a hymn
Of everybody lost in despair

Fly, song of longing
Fly away, grow stronger
Let every voice join you
Let there be thousands
Thousands
Let the whole world sing with you till the walls shudder

Hello hello you little bastards
Pay some attention to my words while I'm here
I'm dying, slowly fading away
Look in my half-dead eyes, ain't I sexy?

I hereby deny existence of hope
I almost forgot what's like to be not alone
I only wish that my song lives on

O solitude
To you I sing
My last song

Let my last breath become
A storm, a hurricane, a doomsday calling
A wake-up call for every lonely soul
Stand up and sing with me this song of longing
And carry on without me when I'm gone

I want this song to fly
Farther than any of you ever flew
I want it worldwide
For every skin color, in every language
Please carry it far away
Cause if it isn't you then
Who's gonna tell my story when I die alone
Who's gonna sing my song
If it's not you
If it's not you
If it's not you

Hi there, we make music (surprise surprise). It's mostly acoustic, mostly piano based, and thoroughly gloomy. Sometimes it's just me, sometimes a duo, sometimes a trio. You get the idea.

K thx
