about

The fourth song on our debut EP - and the most personal of the bunch.

lyrics

Mama you bore a son
And you held him tight
You kept away the cold so that
He'd make it through the night
His lungs were weak, but you stayed strong,
You never did give up.
You never showed the true extent of your fright.

Sing now, sing now
Sing your praise
Believe your love is not in vain
Cry now, cry, shed but one tear
Let go of all your worldly fear.

You put one hand upon his head
And one hand in the air
You called the name of the sacred one
And stroked his newborn hair
You cried out to the heavens above
You knew no other way
The son you loved, the son you bore
Became a saint that day

Sing now, sing now
Sing your praise
Believe your love is not in vain
Cry now, cry, shed but one tear
Let go of all your worldly fear.
Whisper, whisper, in his ear
Make sure he knows you'll always be there.
Pray now, pray, please realize
There's not much more you can do for him now.

Sing now, sing now
Sing your praise
Believe your love is not in vain
Cry now, cry, shed but one tear
Let go of all your worldly fear.
Whispher, whisper in his ear
Make sure he knows, you'll always be there.
Pray now, pray, please realize.

about

ColourSurround Vancouver, British Columbia

A five piece from Vancouver combining melodic pop hooks in an ethereal soundscape, with dreamy yet poignant vocals. If Johnny Marr had a bigger pedal board, this might be what The Smith's would have sounded like.
