  • Listen to my new album "Forget~Me~Nots" here: linktr.ee/Dikajee
    Standing firm on this stony ground
    The wind blows hard
    Pulls these clothes around
    I harbour all the same worries as most
    The temptations to leave or to give up the ghost
    I wrestle with an outlook on life
    That shifts between darkness and shadowy light
    I struggle with words for fear that they'll hear
    But Orpheus sleeps on his back still dead to the world
    Sunlight falls, my wings open wide
    There's a beauty here I cannot deny
    And bottles that tumble and crash on the stairs
    Are just so many people I knew never cared
    Down below on the wreck of the ship
    Are a stronghold of pleasures I couldn't regret
    But the baggage is swallowed up by the tide
    As Orpheus keeps to his promise and stays by my side
    Tell me, I've still a lot to learn
    Understand, these fires never stop
    Believe me, when this joke is tired of laughing
    I will hear the promise of my Orpheus sing
    Sleepers sleep as we row the boat
    Just you the weather and I gave up hope
    But all of the hurdles that fell in our laps
    Were fuel for the fire and straw for our backs
    Still, the voices have stories to tell
    Of the power struggles in heaven and hell
    But we feel secure against such mighty dreams
    As Orpheus sings of the promise tomorrow may bring
    Tell me, I've still a lot to learn
    Understand, these fires never stop
    Please believe, when this joke is tired of laughing
    I will hear the promise of my Orpheus sing

    Beautiful! Such an exquisite song, and it *can't* be easy to cover, with all those tricky chord changes, but the band nailed it, and the singer does a superb job. Brilliant! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
