From their forthcoming album A Color of the Sky, a slow, beautifully serene, soft focus, dream-like number by the New York band about time passing and changing childhood perspective. To enjoy and buy more of their work visit Lightning Bug’s Bandcamp page, which is also embedded below.
As a child, I used to hide
In the nooks of playground slides
And time...
Time was on my side
Then the years went by and I
Found different ways to hide
I learned how to lie
And keep the things I felt inside
The right thing is hard to do
When you’ve got so much to lose
Still in fear, it’s hard to move
When you’ve got so much to prove
Doubt
Ebbs and flows
Well, I’ll let it flow..
So they say they'll build a wall
Of steel that rises grim and tall
And turn away those
Seeking shelter most of all
Fires burn and the waters rise
As we turn from what we know is right
And time...
Is time still on our side?
The hard thing is right to do
When we’ve got so much to lose
And closer to the root I see
When I look past the fallen leaves
Love steady grows
So I’ll let it grow, grow and grow
So I’ll let it grow...
