lyrics

Love died in a fire that night.
She walked out the door and left with my life.
A couple of photographs, I'm left to decide if I should let them all burn.

Cus I'm fading, and grey haired, and wasting away.
The rain said it made it, but we cannot see it beyond all the fires we've made.

I threw the stone at the window.
I grew the garden and then let it die.
You left that night and when you returned.
I could see it in your eyes you were cold dear.
Where's your coat dear?
And everyday following words became hollow and still.
Though presented with no danger, I slept beside a stranger.
The flames they grew higher that made our love flourish and grow now doesn't know, it's burned our love away.
I watch the ashes say goodbye.

Goodbye.

Cus I'm fading, and grey haired, and wasting away.
The rain said it made it, but we cannot see it beyond all the fires we've made. We've made. We cannot see it beyond all the fires we've made. We've made. We cannot see it beyond all the fires we've made

about

Broken Bird Call Hammond, Louisiana

Started by Troy Bennett in early 2013 as a solo venture in the vein of an acoustic project started with Daniel Bankston (The Great Phonograph Fires, Withering Light) in late 2010. All recording and mixing was done by Nick Feduccia. All instruments and arrangements done by myself except for the flugelhorn performed by Mr. Lacy Blackledge. Enjoy.
