BLOOD AND SUN Love Ashes ( Life Under the Crown, Part 2)
Live rendition of track off the new album Love Ashes. Guitar and vocals tracked live. Bass overdubbed. Lyrics: In those years of hate and laughter, and that deep yearning not to be Those were years of restless fear as Dissolution tethered me And every morning that I woke Into those lifeless days I took a breath exhaling smoke and Wished the world away But somehow I continued to wake The story of loves hand steady around me Each days new light in my chest held dear And these reflections in ice Now too beautiful to bear This past year, my love, these ashes Could not bury all my wrongs This past year my love of ashes Took my strength to press on This past year, my love, our ashes Sewed quilts of deathbed dreams But in this year of love and ashes We carry what remains And our lives are the increase of dust As the sky holds the talons of the hawk We each guard our hearts in vain For one day well sleep in the earth As our flesh rots away
