Oblique Rays (E​.​P​.​)

1.
The Cavern 05:37
Well well Your eyes well Sink holes tell A subterranean story Chorus She comes to me in dreams Thanks must be to God it seems For that's the only time that I Can hold her in my arms Someone could fall And forever be lost In the cavernous wastes Where memories crawl Chorus
2.
I ripped your heart from your chest I watched it die At least I had the decency To stay, watch, cry You said you thought Together we'd grow old I hadn't thought I wasn't told Campanile Hendaye Once more unto the breach Just outside of town Just out of reach Chorus We are ghosts Not so scary A loveless life A lifeless purgatory We are ghosts Yet more like clowns Deep deep sadness Stumbling around You came back to the car Picking the sore I said we could work it out We cried some more Driving home A8 The road is clear Oblique rays conflate Distant and near Open where you sat The sewing box lies Falling apart No stitch in time Chorus
3.
I wanted to possess I wanted to own But property is theft Leaving me bereft Alone I wanted to possess I wanted to own But property is theft And now there's nothing left All gone

The sun up above The mist down below The river a vein As if in a dream The sea far beyond Beckoning pale A church bell peels And a curtain falls A chapter complete With longings and wrongs Subsides in the mist So near and yet lost The highway the ditch Populated by ghosts Wandering still Murdered blood cold Chorus And now as here I sit It's clear life is pain Or avoiding it And now as here I sit It's clear life is pain And reliving it A deluge distracts Brings back to life The green hills protect Invasions deflect leaving A form of half peace The sun's gentle warmth Restoring of faith Almost an embrace Chorus

about

The first 3 tracks are new. 4 months of writing, arranging, recording, mixing. I'm pleased with the results & have already had airplay on various stations (Artefaktor, White Lion, NCCR etc.). The remaining bonus tracks are slightly older & recorded in a different way, but hopefully no less interesting. Enjoy.
