about
A song written by John Lancaster of 4 Ohm Mono and myself to celebrate the life of our dear friend and brother in music, Barry Smith, who fought hard but lost his battle with cancer.
lyrics
Something that always seemed
So far out of reach
Has fallen into my hands once again
Staring back at me
Indifference to what soon would be
As if I should have known
All along
We carve another name
In hearts and stone
So the memory remains
When we find ourselves alone
Transmissions from a page
We once read aloud
Made clearer from the rain
Somehow, somehow
Starting to drift downstream
Recollections abound
Projected on the walls of my mind
Tear along the seams
To reveal what we always resist
The harsh truths have gone ignored
For the last time
We carve another name
In hearts and stone
So the memory remains
When we find ourselves alone
Transmissions from a page
We once read aloud
Made clearer from the rain
Somehow, somehow
Made clearer from the rain
Made clearer from the rain somehow
Made clearer from the rain
Made clearer from the rain somehow
