We had to see in the dark
We were children of the night
We had to be in the dark to be
Children of the night
My hair reached to the sky
To try to reach your height
You’re with the gods
I’m with the rocks
You read the cards
I find the squats
One more mystery, one more day
They say leave me one more day
One more mystery, one more day
They say leave me one more day
Holding out your hand to say, please
Holding out your hand to say, give me please
You’re with the gods
I’m with the rocks
You read the cards
I find the squats
You’re with the gods
I’m with the rocks
You read the cards
I find the squats

Falling Leaves

She fell from the stars, I see
Kind eyes, I must remember
That word she spoke
And turned the world aside
Held her in my slow regard
Her dress swirled like smile and fire
We shared a first last kiss
Under a moon that sighed
Follow me across the sea
Follow me under sinking sun
Follow me on the breeze
Follow me, follow me
He lips bright with restless words
I count her many facets
This time, for her
Just never seemed to fit
Her voice light as the wind
Now gone, follow roaming home
Tell them I left to find
My fiction divine
Follow me across the sea
Follow me under sinking sun
Follow me on the breeze
Follow me, follow me
(I’m so lonely, helps me to breathe)
Silence, pressed against the sky
How so, without the stars
To her, like the memory
Of a song unheard
Now I, Under different sun
Call out across the distance
Stand firm behind
This stage-trained heart
(Helps me to breathe, helps me to breathe)

Moving forward
It’s the little things
That remind me
It’s the piece of me
That feels incomplete
Moving forward
They say
You’re at peace
Moving forward
Now, your body’s free
How can you be in a better place?
When I’m here, without you?
Moving forward

The Blue Hour Seattle, Washington
The Blue Hour blends dream pop, synth wave, and industrial with hints of psychedelia, folk, and electronica to create haunting songs, focusing on texture and rhythm and beautiful discord ... and most of all magic.
The Blue Hour recommends:
Anonymity
by Pieter Nooten - Marselle Hodges
Pieter and Marselle deliver a fresh take on dream pop that nests comfortably between the lush output of early 4AD and the modern ambient electronic music of bands like Apparat.
