and so to sleep by honker

[Oldrottenhead]

kenneth sent me the music this morning and his timing was perfect as it was my first day off in ages.

                              

so dim the lights
and hunker down
just as the sun
goes back to ground

to lay in peace
wrapped in the still
the silence sounds
ethereal

and so to sleep
and so to dream
and so to sleep
and so to dream

the night surrounds
an envelope
where you can hide
from all your woes

and nurse your wounds
heal repair
until it's time
to go out there


and so to sleep
and so to dream
and so to sleep
and so to dream

and live to fight
another day

and so to sleep

[Gnasty]

Okay i know this is a honker!

i must tell you this song just oozes with emotion from Kenneth`s guitars and your vox Jim. Those lyrics are too damn good!

Impressive piece of work!! You guys rule!!

[Damián]

Wonderful song guys...

Poetry slips into the beautiful music!

[Bluesberry]

Almost sounds like VDGG.......you been listening to that new album.......the synth is a real nice touch Ken.  Musically I don't think I have heard better or more beautiful Ken.  And your vocal, jim, what a flipping vocal.  This could be considered a massive win guys, fantastic. 

[Kenneth]

Thanks!
Great job on the lyrics/ vocals Jim!

Wow - so beautiful, and so quietly powerful. Everything sounds crystal clear - love the emotion conveyed in the vocal and the synth. Lyrics are poetic. Just had a guest speaker at our school who has anthologized a book of war poems - these lyrics would fit nicely into that book.

Fantastic music Ken. The volume swells are sublime, and in my opinion the perfect touch. Jim really hit the nail on the head with the lyrics and vocal.

Powerful, emotional and excellent, the music is really terrific and the vox and lyrics are superb, a great Honker track.
