Equinox (Original)

May 2008
A song about making decisions, home to some of my more elaborate and cryptic metaphors :-)
I also wrote a violin track for this song but unfortunately I lack both the instruments and the skills to play

it. Played around with a synthesized violin but the results didn't impress me too much and also I don't

think synthesized instruments is really a place where I want to take my music.
Recorded all tracks seperately because there was no way I would have been able to play and sing the chorus at

the same time :-)

LYRICS:

Do you know how many of them fell by your hand?
Do you know? Do you understand?
Can you see the irony,
That when you're gone you are still here with me...

Oh perfect stranger and best friend,
Do you know when this will end?
Do you know when I will know you?

Oh my soulmate, demon yet,
My beloved and my hate,
How long will you be hiding?


CHORUS:
When petals, stalk and thorns are ashes,
Blood and poison both but dust,
When healed the last one of those gashes,
When the last chance gone by too fast.

Do you know what you have done here?
Do I know what you should be?
Will you ever even come here?
Make me blind and make me see...


Another day, another year, what does it matter?
Another aeon ruled by you.
I just don't know whether you make it worse or better,
Or if there's anything you do.

My closest ally and my foe,
Oh my saviour, ruin though,
Oh thou beast with thousand faces.

You bear with pride the crimson red,
On night's stigma's silver blade,
Spilled in the name of one of you.

In all directions there are you,
No matter what I say or do,
Do you know to who to listen?

CHORUS
