Northern Sky - Original Song - Arvid Poem

What can I say? Fires on the northern sky and other mystical elements. Microphone the T.Bone sc450 usb, bare recording, nothing added. If you don't sway when listening, then try to catch the rhythm, editorial comment.


Northern Sky
Dm7/ C/ G/

Nothing is real, you say
And I can hear the sway
Of the big trees in the shadow
We fly high we ride low

So we dig deep in the center
Anybody needs a good carpenter
Nothing goes as planned
These pictures should be canned

Always I come back to you
Wading like the marabou
You know what is good
This ain't willow this is wood

You shine like a star of the north
Pulling me out and pushing forth
I'm still looking for the truth
You say it's part of the youth

Flashing lights all so futile
Covers widely something fragile
What remains is true like stone
Dust covered ancient throne

So you say it's time for sleep
We are digging hard and deep
My tired bones are aching
The last seal soon be braking

Companions are friends together
No need for tar and feather
You give me power mystical
I assume it's all natural

The time is getting short
It's better look to the north
And raise your collar high
There might be lights tonight

@gavrjdodd Thanks for the advice. Everyday something clicks just its own place.

Often a language barrier can be a problem - but in your case it's a bonus... :- )

5/5*

@wooddragon45 Maybe we can thought the language as a tool, which can be used many ways and many purposes. My way to use it is to describe feelings of an aging man, feelings that begin to live in the songs, but that purpose thing is little difficult for me to answer. Thanks for supportive comment.

Once again the lyrics and song are hauntingly honest and beautiful, 

[arvidmr]

@catanddave I do my best to be honest and the beauty dwells behind your kind comment. Thank you.

@turtlelakend Hey Don, I'm happy that you enjoy. I am enjoying too, and these songs, they begin to live their little lives on their own.
