Grandfather Clock

by Zelena Hull

/

about

A stripped down acoustic song with a haunting melody. Grandfather Clock takes place in the dead of winter. A void overcomes the listener. The stripped back nature of this track emphasizes the meaning of the lyrics. Throughout the song there’s a yearning for someone to finally notice, but no body ever does. It's a whole that cannot ever be filled.

lyrics

Grandfather clock is ticking quite a lot, the slow chiming tick and tocking
Summer is gone, winter is long long long, I close the door like so many times before

I’m here alone looking at the snowfall
I’m with myself on a bench looking at the grey sky
I’m here

Touch my skin, make feel human, a game I’ve playing again and again
Looking for something, that can’t win. Trying to make to make it happen
But it seems, that he never notices me at all, all my friends have come and gone
Now it’s just me singing my lonesome song

I’m here alone looking at the snowfall
I’m with myself on a bench looking at the grey sky
I’m here

Everyone looks right through me, I can’t say why exactly
I ask myself, is it me?
On my own, waiting for anything to take my mind of it
To wonder away, to fall in love again
I’m done with searching

I’m here alone looking at the snowfall
I’m with myself on a bench looking at the grey sky
I’m here
I’m here alone looking at the snowfall
I’m with myself on a bench looking at the grey sky
I’m here
