about

A bit of an oldie (written c.2017) reworked and re-recorded :)

lyrics

There's shadows on Cheapside, it must be getting late
Sky sets before me like an old slab of slate
Don't want to feel broken, I don't want to feel cowed
Don't want to feel empty as I'm feeling right now
I don't want much, all I need is a spark
But sometimes it can feel like it's falling dark

They're ringing the bells of St Mary-le-Bow
Maybe a funeral, nobody knows
Girl on the corner screams look at the news
Look at the shitstorm we're all heading into
If this were the bible we'd all be building an ark
'Cause sometimes it can feel like it's falling dark

You say there’s good times round the bend
Where milk and honey never end
I wish I shared your confidence my friend
But I don’t

It's too late now, I just want to go home
The nighttime is falling, falling, dark as I've ever known
Rumble of thunder clean out of the blue
Clouds so heavy the sun'll never break through
Out in the courtyard a dog has started to bark
'Cause sometimes it can feel like it's all falling dark
Falling dark (repeat)
