about
Inspired by Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol.
lyrics
i heard the bells chime through the misty streets of london
i saw you walking all alone, cold and alone
you feel the stones beneath you; their hardness grieves you
unlike your cold heart’s cobblestone, your cobblestone

and the ghosts they find you hurting
and the ghosts they find you yearning
and the ghosts they find your candle burning out

your coat’s pulled tight against the wind but the voices still get in
down some dark passage without a soul, without a soul
there is no light here to greet you; only darkness feeds you
the echoes of the chains you’ve forged, the chains you’ve forged

i thought i heard you awakening from your desperate slumber
i thought i heard breaking chains
