Hi Folks.
This started a few months ago as a collaboration between me, Sasha K. and Ray C. It was an interesting, but very slow burning project as I was not happy with my vocals & mix and gave it far too many tries. This is a last variant that was finished last week. (I am still not very satisfied with it). Critical suggestions are most welcomed. Thank you for listening.

When The Curtains Fall



Hips of dreams, froze in time,
When you are gone.
Playing poker with ghosts through the night, till the break of the dawn.
Loneliness coils like a snake, there's nothing left to hide.
Trapped in this feeling - Like I am the last man of his tribe.

A cause and effect -
Life you will not regret on your darkest day.
Who will remember your deeds when the curtains fall.

Shards of existence held in time,
When you are gone.
Playing chess with regret through the night,
Shadow takes the last pawn.
my snake, sheds its skin yet again,
to better feel the change of wind.
Trapped in this waking,
Until all I know is pain.

Pause and reflect
Life you will not regret on your darkest day.
Who will remember your name when the curtains fall.
