Life Times 03:54
'Life Times' Saw you yesterday, you told me “Everything felt wrong" Didn’t have the heart to tell you I was feeling strong Didn’t have the heart to say that I could turn away And I look you in the eye Your tears are lost in rain... Was it my imagination? Or did I hear you say? “We could try just one more time And make it all okay” Hungry as a searchlight I can see it in your eyes If we just re-write the past Well, don’t you know I tried? And we held in the warm summer rain The last piece of hope that remained And I don’t feel afraid anymore Darling, there’s a life time to fall Even though my heart was breaking I could feel the light Holding on to anything To help me through this night Warm the cold inside my veins And wash away the dirt Wrap a blanket round my soul Soothe the way it hurts And we held in the warm summer rain The last piece of hope that remained And I don’t feel afraid anymore Darling, there’s a life time to fall And as I walked away Carried part of her Inside half a man Ambiguous, broken Like my heart And I don’t feel afraid anymore Darling, there’s a life time to fall Darling, there’s a life time to fall

'Icarus' Arms outstretched You leap into the heavens And you glide on the wind Heading to oblivion We are Gods without the wisdom Held in our fists is our own existence Through our lives Alone we are together But you've always been here I've thought of you forever To be loved is to be eternal Every moment we live is to be eternal Sunshine on the darkest of days Sunshine in the dark The wax within your wings Rains like a scalding kiss To be strong when you face your doomsday And I watch as you fall like a silent ballet Sunshine on the darkest of days Sunshine in the dark If I had held you more I could have broke your fall

about

‘Life Times’ is an 80’s infused summertime indie pop song. Uplifting melodic textures, haunting vocals and lyrics of heartbreak and loss balance the line between melancholy and atmospheric beauty. A sun-drenched bittersweet pop gem, ‘Life Times’ drives forward and then soars into an irresistible and blissful chorus.

'Life Times' is taken from the album 'His Lucent Girlfriends'.

The original mix of 'Icarus' is available on the album 'The Dead Sea Sound'.

about

the DEAD SEA SOUND Manchester, UK

The Dead Sea Sound is singer / songwriter Mark Butt.

Quintessential songcraft with beautiful dark melodies, lyrics of love, heartbreak and regret, haunting vocals and northern soulfulness.

Other-worldly indie pop/rock with a slight dash of electronica. At once the sound is cinematic in scope yet the songs extraordinarily intimate.
