This is my newest song I've recorded today. It's almost nine minutes long and took a long time to get done. The song is about post-paradise pain, about returning to places that bring memories. Sometimes very painful ones. The song is about living in the past embraced by the ghosts of our lost beloved ones. Goodbye is said but we cannot walk away... Town of Memories Lyrics and music: Liene Narcis 2014.05.04 Kaleidoscopic visions eternalized
Future sacrified The meadow full of fireflies Burnt on front of my eyes Once your hands like tranquilizers Danced on my skin Your radiant smile and silky shine in those eyes An unsolvable light Town of memories Disappear Don’t take me there! I’ll burn the gates I’ll walk away but not today I’m walking silent in the streets of Rositten No more fight Sacral incense of everything we did and said I breathe it tonight Once your lips like clumsy kittens Played sweet games On my skin your Goodbye is written Post paradise pain Through the darkness and memories I walked to kiss our promise to be together forever. I smiled. Dry leaves broke under my feet. Bare branches of winter caressed my body. I felt like falling back into my past. I felt like I will never change. I will never lose the beautiful part in me. No one can take away what's inside of me. Tame me or control me. I am a myth in my soul. The myth that sometimes seems real but eventually this semblance disappears. Being in the cemetery of my past I feel not alone. The ghosts and images of my fantasy crawl out and become my sentinels against loneliness and despair. Kissing our promise I feel your small hand on my shoulder. I feel your breath like a whisper at my ear. A warm air in a cold snowless winter's night. I turn around. No one's there but my silent sentinels. I smile because I kept the promise. I will never walk away.

Thank you! This song is very special to me too. I suppose that we all have our towns of memories -- each of them unique and bittersweet. We want to leave it but there are so many precious moments worth to save in our hearts...

I think to a certain extent, we are able to leave these towns behind..but some of us (in a quiet moment) like to go back and get a taste of that familiar bittersweetness again..at least i do :)
