1.
Empty hours drifting restlessly away Days pass, like years led astray By that earth-like sound the crimson leaves the twilight sky enclothe the ground Just another song about the fall of fairys starting fires in our souls the dream of embers fading with the cold of winter left us dead, black coals Inside this day so clinical and clear The flame burnt quicker then last year The faint arrows of the sun, it sparkles bring a hope of change, but will it come Just another song about the fall of fairys starting fires in our souls the dream of embers fading with the cold of winter left us dead, black coals A dream of embers A dream of a spark and then, December comes, and the dark

So much to give when the brooks of the moon greets me A river is raging within held by thought born bars Emptyness fills me again The world within quells As dreams fade and nightingales die A birdlike shade that rise to hide Awakened, I cloud myself in the shell awaiting dusk Light the stars again release me from these blinding chains of grief Light the stars again let our souls drift into the warmth of twilight lanterns Winter snow shatters the ground The cold sunlight reflects upon Winter snow shatter my mind a veil of ice Awakened, I cloud myself in the shell awaiting dusk Light the stars again release me from these blinding chains of grief Light the stars again let our souls drift into the warmth of twilight lanterns

If all of the cities fall while I sleep And all the music dies I will keep this moment dear to hold and to cherish Leave the world alone to perish All I ever wanted, all that I could see In this second flowing, dancing round this world and me The lies and all the loss. I've heard them before Life has had its way with me. I fear it no more Or less, at least then just a moment ago I fear life less then the last moment I saw All I ever wanted, all that I could see In this second flowing, dancing round this world and me

about

Deep down in a moist basement, I found a battered cassette tape with an old demo recording of the last three songs by The Small Hours.
