about

I had been noodling around the chords to this track for some time without so much as a melody or single lyric. Then one night just before as I was about to fall asleep the whole thing kind of made sense and kind of fell into my mind.
I got up there and then, and recorded it pretty much as you hear it on the record.

To this day it is my favourite song I have put out.

lyrics

Maybe I’m just caught in a crossfire
Or maybe I’m too blind to see what’s going on

And I can paint it red
And you can paint it blue
These colours change the view

Sweet saviour sail me to the dream
And whisper to me sweet nothings until the break of dawn

And i can paint it red
and you can say its blue
These colours change the View

Maybe I’m just caught in a crossfire
Maybe I’m just caught in a crossfire

You can stain it red
And I can keep it blue
These colours change
These colours change the view
