LYRICS

Another round of Halo: Reach
Another double team to beat
Smoking weed to fall asleep
So lonesome and alone

Seven years ago from now
You crashed into my life somehow
I just want to let you know
I love what we’ve become

Don’t worry about ego shooter games
Love’s a battlefield, a crossfire or a quake

Cause you see me through
And you get me high
Just like lovers do
Just like addicts try
And I wonder who you are
Wonder where you came from 
And I still wonder who I am
And wonder where it leads to and since then 

Don’t worry about all the things to come
It’s easy to keep calm and carry on and on

Long Way Home

Dark On The Wind (Words & Music by Nigel Foote)

Lovers and strangers
Who knows the dangers
Gather ye roses while ye may boy
For the days they do roll
And a young tree grows old
I hear the thunder, dark on the wind

Yesterday’s faces
Distant embraces
Eyes that fan the fires for you boy
Impossible choices
Soft inner voices
I watch the leaves blow away in the wind

Chorus:
Will you marry me
Will you be true
Yes I will marry you
Do I lie to myself or to you

Prohibited feelings
Trespassed emotions
Love’s bitter-sweet trade in old hearts boy
Catches you dreaming
Endlessly scheming
I feel the rain splash cool on my skin

Chorus:
Will you marry me
Will you be true
Yes I will marry you
Do I lie to myself or to you

Eye-witness strangers
Clandestine exchanges
A room with a view of the harbour
You say it’s the last time
Just like the last time
I see the lightning flash blue on your skin

Chorus:
Will you marry me
Will you be true
Yes I will marry you
Do I lie to myself or to you

Lovers and strangers
Who knows the dangers
Gather ye roses while ye may boy
For the days they do roll
And a young tree grows old
I hear the thunder, dark on the wind

Dark On The Wind

Elfin Iriz - seven

This song is about loving one another, treating each other with respect, living lives with dignity and building up, not tearing down.

Who Doesn't Love

MISTER SIMON

left behind

Driven to write the perfect song, Minneapolis-born singer/songwriter Ted Hajnasiewicz (Hi-Nah-SHEV-Its) performs with a magnetizing honesty and reflective tone that speaks to the very essence of the human spirit.
