about

Did you notice how quickly time passes? And how did you notice that? One of the time-counting elements for many is flowers as simple as dandelions. Always here, until they aren’t - and you know it’s getting colder, then. Out lives feel similar in a way.

With Dandelions, we went for minimalistic poetry in song form, depicting the time passing. The swift getting old of a dandelion is a parallel to aging & the way time and memories fly by us to be lost.

Dandelions also underlines the lack of respect and admiration for an older kind of beauty. People trying to look younger in this world of instant prettiness lead to a feeling of loneliness.

lyrics

Dandelions glowing up our ways
Dandelions growing in our days
Always
Ours
Dandelions all over our arms
Growing sparks

We all knew
Dandelions, too
Dandelions blown
By the wind we own
We knew

Why would be the yellow worth much more
Than the white and grey of Oldmoreshore
Always
On time
Parachutes just blown in our face
Faded grace

We all knew
Dandelions, too
Dandelions blown
By the wind we own
We knew

And neither did they
Neither will may
Love the lost
Love the losing
The yellows of our choosing
Turning grey

We all knew
Dandelions, too
Dandelions blown
By the wind we own
We knew
We knew
We knew

And dandelions, too
