Written after Entry #82.
A song about Tim and Jay, regarding Entry #80.
lyrics
There’s no light in your face,
Usually there’s a trace,
Of deep thought, fear set free,
But now you’re just empty,
There’s no light in your eyes,
Since you fell from the sky,
How can I carry on
With this life that you brought me back from?
There is blood, to my despair,
Lifeless fingers, cold stare,
You and I were a pair,
Running solo again,
I have grasped onto life,
I’m not going back this time,
Why didn’t you tell me,
And why did you die?
Nothing felt worse that looking at your handprints on the stone,
Nothing’s replaced your presence in this battle I fight alone.
I rage a tempest on the leads which turn up nothing,
I’ve lost you and my way, but one day I’ll get something
From this silly little life, and hey, you brought safety to mine,
But you left, and I don’t want safety,
Yet you’ve probably managed to save me.
One man who thought he knew,
A way to always get through,
Playing tricks on the mind,
Thought that he’d won this time,
A man taken by the storm,
Isn’t that man anymore,
He’s roaming corridors and lies in wait for us all.
You left the clues, you signed yourself in red upon the floor
I chased it up, not fast enough, now what the hell am I fighting for?
I rage a tempest on the leads which turn up nothing,
I’ve lost you and my way, but one day I’ll get something
From this silly little life, and hey, you brought safety to mine,
But you left, and I don’t want safety,
Yet you’ve probably managed to save me.
Being held back from you,
A different dimension, too,
Play it back, but the truth
Is that you’ll never really move again.
Isolation means I’ve started to freeze,
I stand, a solitary figure with the keys,
To cars, computers, and denial, but not the resolution I require
But you left, and I feel like I betrayed you.
And I’ll never get a chance to save you.
I love this album so much. So many perfect songs to fit all of the jaw dropping moments from this arc. Especially the diary of sheriff isaak. What a banger. fishfeets
Introspective, homespun folk tunes from John Donne that feel informed by the sugary bleakness of '80s and '90s indie pop. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 1, 2023
”Seawheel Acoustic” delivers captivating melodies and heartfelt lyrics in songs that are equal parts soothing and enchanting. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 10, 2023
This is a great adaptation of Arthuriana and a brilliant narrative album. I love how the queerness of the characters is handled as an integral part of the narrative and plot development without it being the end all be all of the characters themselves. my boy Gawain deserved better though maritarvaniti
