The Bombadils - Sepia

Let me tell you
We ignored the alarm bells
Tried to call them wedding bells
Dinner bells
School bells

I'm looking at sepia
Trying to remember the colour we used to live in
The blush of our Mother
Has been smothered
By a sickly yellow
Smog seeps in
Sepia

Do you remember
The sun would lift her lashes across the sky
Leaving a hush in my heart, a sigh
Gentle magenta giving way to blue
Oh, heavenly hue
Where are you?

I'm listening to static
Feeling nostalgic
For the birds and their morning song
I used to sing along before it all went wrong
The trees would tell their stories
Of gladness and glory
Now their leaves are but ashes on the ground
The silence is thick
Static

Do you remember
The sun would lift her lashes across the sky
Leaving a hush in my heart, a sigh
Gentle magenta giving way to blue
Oh, heavenly hue
Where are you?

Ooohh

Tried to call them wedding bells
Dinner bells
School bells
