'THE VOW' LYRICS

Everything seems still
although the wind is a drill
I’ve got this sound in my head 
a continuous light
like the one of the sunset 
a time lapse of the sunrise 
fire coming down
fire coming down 

 Voices from the ground
You know what it’s all about
I feel like it’s all around
You see the eyes of the crowd
The voices will never shout
The voices will never drown
I feel like it’s all around
And now they’ve made a vow 

 The loud crushed voices 
made up and amplified 
the waves on the stairs 
the cards of the game 
when I think of that day 
light heart and cold sun 
just what I see right now 
just what surrounds me now

 It’s like it got us all
And it’s part of everyone
It’s like a waterfall
And it’s wind on the run 

 Voices from the ground 
You know what it’s all about 
I feel like it’s all around 
You see the eyes of the crowd 
The voices will never shout 
The voices will never drown 
I feel like it’s all around 
And now they’ve made a vow
Voices from the ground 
The voices will never drown  
I feel like it’s all around  
And now they’ve made a vow 

BEHIND THE SONG

I slowly came to the realisation that perception is all we have, that the things we see, hear, feel in our head represent our very own interpretation of reality. The way you feel about things depends on your state of mind, on your past experiences and your expectations. Sometimes we get to observe these from above, in rare moments of clarity... This song is my way of portraying all these feelings and ideas. When in the song I say "the cards of the game" I refer to the fact that every single things that happens around you can be filled with different meanings, that can sometimes be haunting. Simply observing someone playing a game of cards can remind us of how life itself can be seen a game.
