'Clouds' by Sandtimer, out October 26th on Lost Forest Records

lyrics

The clouds are clearing far away, a blank new page,
but you cannot seem to find a way to start again.
The sun was breaking through the clouds yesterday
but it never seems to dry out all your old mistakes.

The sleepless nights that people passed for you,
the pain of being saddled with the weight of truth.
It’s something I’d take in my stride, walking blue
with the fear and guilt of starting to resent what I can’t do-

to lift your head up from that big wooden desk,
to catch what’s left of summer now,
to feel that warmth that you’ve not often felt-
wish there was some way we could help.

One sky with clouds full of snow and one of rain
and I think how love and friendship sometimes toll on you the same.
That burning wish to know and fight their pain and
shape the clouds into faces that could make them smile again.

To salvage something good from such a mess,
to join the dots between the good days,
to feel that warmth and settle for nothing less-
wish there was some way we could help
but the power to change is locked inside yourself.
