Solemn Symphony

from Creatures (2012) by City of Sound

/

lyrics

I wrote the end of my book on a cool summer day
Just lyin' alone in the grass looking for some shade
A kingdom without a castle, a king without a queen
No, not the king at all just a foolish man with dreams
So I walked around the city singing songs I knew
But nobody else could hear me so I sang them all to you
And somewhere on the brighter side of town my voice fell through
There's where stood an angel dancin' to my tune

Illuminating everything I see
Through clouds & frozen seas
The midnight moonbeams shining through the trees
In waves of symphony
I'm no longer longing, no longer lonely

Dead stars reflect upon the glass
A million shades of light years pass
I look inside a swirl of atoms spinning in a box

You soon will change as nothing lasts
The beauty & the sceneries pass
One day you'll find you've woke inside a place where you are lost

But you will find another day
Another one will come your way
You'll put yourself inside and swim away in a new box

And it will all come back again
Your sunken joy & love let in
You'll throw your arms around all the things that you had lost

From up & down & side to side
Shaken, stirred & stretched outside
Your silly putty soul peaks out the holes of a new box


Written by Danny Morrison
