Story behind the song
Inspired by pictures for sale at antique shops of persons unknown. One of the main ideas is an adaptation of the philosophical question, "if a tree falls in the forest and there is no one there to hear it, does it make a sound?"

Someone I Should Know?

Pictures and frames
Markers without names
Years now have claimed
Those who would remember
Lot lore and line
Cast adrift time
Lives undefined
Beyond memory's harbor
Is it someone I should know?
Or one by life forgotten
As winter steals days
Of color from autumn
Darkly through a glass
Futures once now past
Rose of summer last
Moving yet scentless and still
Hourglass and clock
Sand and spring have stopped
Songs now all but lost
But heard by those who will
Is it someone I should know?
Or one by life forgotten
As winter steals days
Of color from autumn
