about
From the reviews:
"The 'sense of wonder' as blues subsumes to jazz and jangles the mood sideways. A bit of caffeine in this melodic jolt."
"Strong mental imagery prompted by this song: a dirt road, just pre-storm, thick yellow-grey atmosphere and (thank you Robert Frost) miles to go before I sleep. Gritty winner."
"Really good! The vocals are really strong"

lyrics
No Symphony for Lovers
Part 1 - No Symphony for Lovers
Let me hear the colours
Let my senses interfere
Entangled under the covers
Of my own cavalcade of fear
Let me talk around the corner
My emotions bring the rain
Embittered by the righteous
No one left to take the blame
Let me feel that sense of wonder
Might I walk among the sane?
This is no symphony for lovers
I'm just crying out in pain
Let me light the fire on meekness
Adrenalin is on its chains
Entangled in my own weakness
A play on words such a crying shame
Part 2 - No Sympathy for Livers
Instrumental
