about
"Taken from another story from the news, this one about domestic violence. A woman was found badly beaten in her kitchen, but her husband was found dead beside her with a carving knife in his chest, but also several other stab wounds that would have been enough for his death. I imagined her terrified mind as he came into the room. I also wanted to leave my ending ambiguous —who died, her or him? The funky nature of it evolved over a few rehearsals - it started off as another Cure-inspired track, but Steve wanted to get some ‘Funkytown’ influences in there. Tilly’s remarkable scream was recorded in one take, as she had an acting job later and didn’t want to ruin her voice."
-Glenn
lyrics
She’s in the shadow of night
And the sound of the whistle in the trees is the fire in her eyes.
Her hero is calling,
But she dare not speak for the fear of an error in her voice.
She hears footsteps creaking,
And the finger on the trigger of her life squeezes, squeezes,
squeezes tight.
She closes her eyes,
She knows she’ll be safe when it comes to the hour of light.
Hour of light.
Her flesh is creeping,
The ring on her finger strangles blood rushing quickly in her heart.
Laying in the kitchen,
She takes a knife from the drawer that she’s chained to
for the rest of her life.
Her hero is calling
And he opens the door to the room he’s only seen on TV.
Then she opens her eyes –
She knows she’ll be safe when it comes to the hour of light.
Hour of light.
Hour of light.
Ah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
