Lots of music boxes, with the first poem from Mahler's Kindertotenlieder spoken in English and German over the top. Still in progress.

Not really a band, just somewhere to put my compositions. So sometimes there will be a 'band' of sorts, but it'll always be changing, and sometimes it'll just be midi...

Story behind the song
A friend of mine had twins last year and one of them died at 20 days, this song was written in her memory. RIP Jaeci
Lyrics
Now the sun will rise as brightly as if no misfortune had occurred in the night. The misfortune has fallen on me alone. The sun - it shines for everyone. You must not keep the night inside you; you must immerse it in eternal light. A little light has been extinguished in my household; Light of joy in the world, be welcome. Nun will die Sonn' so hell aufgehn, Als sei kein Unglück die Nacht geschehn! Das Unglück geschah nur mir allein! Die Sonne, sie scheinet allgemein! Du mußt nicht die Nacht in dir verschränken, Mußt sie ins ew'ge Licht versenken! Ein Lämplein verlosch in meinem Zelt! Heil sei dem Freudenlicht der Welt!
