The bulk of this song was written in the dark of my room over the course of a nine hour recording session. On this song I was able to experiment with various synth sounds and ebow techniques which i feel add the most character to the song besides the thickly layered vocals.
Dark at noon
The air was like glass
And I was walking right beside you
There's nothing beneath us
But the white grass
Frost at your toes and your fingers are cold
I'm feeling wine dark
Over and Done
Shoulder to Shoulder
Lying down
I am he
I am your blood
You're all that I need
Hold your soul in the old, in this gold
I've been found in this way
But they won't let me stay
No, no, no, situate
And erase how I've been, this is only a new friend
I've been found, I've been sold
Is it great? So you know.
And this sound that you hear
Is my drum in your ear
And you forgot my name
But the words came the same
You are here in my land
And we won't meet again
cause your not in my way
You are not here to stay
Let it be Man of War
This is not how you were
