about

The third track from Elara. Lost started out as a lullaby but evolved into something much more upbeat. It's a song I love and probably the first time I really opened up lyrically about how I felt at the time.

We had had a brief break from lockdown so I'd had chance to rehearse with the band. Then it was back into isolation for recording. The bass was sent over by Sam Dutton Taylor and the cymbals by Chris Smith, the other instruments were stacked in my home studio. There is an accompanying video that can be found on YouTube.

lyrics

Hanging on to see if I’ll breathe again
Standing in the dark, on an unknown lane
Think I might be a monster after all

Said a lot o’things didn’t want to say
Silver streaks of rain whip across my face
Didn’t really mean to let go of my love

Sometimes I feel like the world ain’t real at all
Sometimes I wish I could blame the moon for it all
Sometimes I feel like the world ain’t real at all
Could touch the sky but then the starlight starts to fall

Are we dreaming? Or just living and living
Are we breathing? Or just spinning and spinning

In the dead of night think all I’ve had and lost
As the memory turns to dust
In the darkest night think all is lost n found
As we tumble to the ground

These empty streets form a maze
A passing car light burns my gaze
Really gotta find a way out of this place
Step onto a path that shines so bright
Don’t wanna be out of the moonlight
Stars collide and the sky starts to roar

Sometimes I feel like the world ain’t real at all
Sometimes I wish I could blame the moon for it all
Sometimes I feel like the world ain’t real at all
Could touch the sky but then the starlight starts to fall

Are we dreaming? Or just living and living
Are we breathing? Or just spinning and spinning

In the dead of night think all i’ve had and lost
As the memory turns to dust
In the darkest night think all is lost n found
As we tumble to the ground
