lyrics

The world descends into a deeper gray
As all the touchstones fade away
As one by one, then one again
These landmarks fade away, they rend
The brushstrokes of the happy years
Dissolved into a well of tears

As all the touchstones disappear
They whisper of the journey's end
As one by one, then one again
Go pale as though were only dreams
The memories that once did teem

Don’t know when I first started
Noticing the signs
Crept up like a thief in the night
Stealing precious memories
From the soothing to sublime
Now a life that’s lived between the
Seams in the dark corners of the mind

BREAK

And now I’m dreamin’ of a different time
It’s getting harder to return
As one by one, they leave this world
As one by one, these bridges burned
To follow them, I wait my turn
I follow them, I wait my turn

about

Tez Howes Moncton, New Brunswick

I'm just an old Canadian fart writing & recording tunes, trying to capture the vibe of pre-millennial popular musics, rock, blues, jazz, funk, country, pop, etc. Lumiere and Knowhere are primarily indie pop, and The New Codiac Blues is a collection of blues-based tunes.
They're dotted with selected collabs with uber-talented friends in the UK, USA, Australia and Bulgaria of a variety of sounds.
