about

A Track from the upcoming Toad In Transit Studio Album - out early 2015

lyrics

(1)
Are you there - in the light?
Dancing shadows – none so bright
Memories of you captured on celluloid
Kept in boxes – the attic’s mind
The lamp’s flicker – the reels in turn
What keeps you here – the celluloid burns

Ref 1:
While you’re sleeping
In the darkest nights above us all
The light starts your dancing
And your heartbeats by the reels will start

(2)
Dead by day – alight by night
I keep you sleeping when it’s too bright
But my memory fades with time
Distant pictures – merge to one
Keep you running – on and on
I cast your soul on celluloid
Ref 2:
While you were sleeping
In your darkest nights beneath my hands
Alone I’m breathing
Since your voice has ceased so long ago

You are still dancing
By electric lights and my own hand
Buried beneath
And above you are alive on celluloid
