about

A single from Ora Cogan's upcoming album, Crickets.

lyrics

Every time I tell you how I feel
You wrap up the words in silk & smoke
My honey don’t see the stars ‘cause of you
She don’t want to dance anymore

In the light
The light

You're hollow, You shutter and shake
Like cracks in patina
Like ice on a lake

Wolf whistle king for a day
If death came before you
You’d run away

From the light

Don’t carve my conscience with your skill
If you don’t know me now
You never will

This is the hour we will choose our fate
Life in the valley in a dying flame
Life in the valley in a dying flame

Oh Life
