flora cash - "the bells toll lovelier at night"
currently unreleased. written in 2023, worked on since then. if you guys want it, we'll release this version. just let us know. for us this is one of our best songs. just haven't known 100% when to finish.
there’s a place i’ve seen in your eyes
full of anguish, yes, but also lots of light
where the bells toll lovelier at night
and the blackest dark is always rather bright
where the random bits are almost by design
and the overtones are always amplified
ringing on and on and on
may our love go on and on
i forgot. will you sing for me a line?
from the tune that no one hears until its time
if you need to retreat from the fight
take my wings, but keep my sword there at your side
take me with you when you long for paradise
and if God won’t let me in, get word to Christ
may the bells ring on, and on
may our love go on and on
go to sleep and i’ll open your eyes
blood to wine, all pain is sweetness in disguise
when the birds sing more beautifully at night
that’s a warning bell but mostly it’s the sign
that the best things aren’t gold and never shine
and beware the one eyed king leading the blind
may the bells ring on, and on
may our love go on and on
may it all go on and on
may our love go on and on
may our love go on and on
may our love go on and on

This video is part of our reverse sync series, where we take short films we genuinely love and re-edit them around flora cash songs while trying to preserve as much of the original sequence as possible. Part of the point of this project is highlighting extraordinary work made by actual human beings and hopefully introducing it to people who may not otherwise have found it.
