about

(9th April | bedroom)

Another one of the songs I've uploaded on my facebook page during this strange quarantine period. Phone's quality and limitations, as it was for the previous two: hope you enjoy it!

"land of no tears" is about disillusionment, heartbreak and fear of compromise, but I wouldn't say it's a negative song; maybe the exact opposite.

Watch the playthrough of this song on YouTube:

lyrics

Lyrics:

it felt like I wasn't even there
as they dragged her through the streets:
crowds of spit run down her hair
the anguished despair
the hangman tying the rope around her neck

and I didn't hear the bone crack
those animals rejoice
that the choice was never theirs
as they slowly vanished from the square
hurting like planets we kept on creeping 'round the sun

until gravity unchained us
and we started floating towards the void
with our lungs just far too full
of songs for the burrowed
oh how we pleaded sane
how we cried "don't let it all be swept away

to a land of no pain
with its rivers of gold"
the voice bleeding from above
said the killing wasn't real
to which we would fall asleep
and dream of all the things we could bring

to our land of no tears
land of no love
it's not as ugly as it sounds
the failing of all ground
