Name: ghosts of july
Duration: P00H04M20S
Description: Probably the most satisfying of my shoegaze tunes this round. Still pretty half-baked lyrics, but at least they were an honest first draft, which is far better than anything else I've managed this round. And I finally got to work back in my distorto-Wurly technique, which I haven't used for a long time ...

Probably the most satisfying of my shoegaze tunes this round. Still pretty half-baked lyrics, but at least they were an honest first draft, which is far better than anything else I've managed this round. And I finally got to work back in my distorto-Wurly technique, which I haven't used for a long time ...

lyrics

underneath the cover of snow
waiting for shadows to grow
everything that’s left of my song
will you sing it?

carve the mists with delicate knife
praise you all the stress and the strife
what if all I gave you was wrong
would you bring it?

thought we’d have seen you before autumn’s close
the drops of my blood from the pricks of the rose
all promised in letters that you’ll never send
the ghosts of July breathe their names on the wind
