about

This was actually the first song written for the record and was initially going to be part of Niko’s second album project before the formation of Now In Colour. The guitar and flute give it a bit of a Celtic feel, and it uses the Dorian mode which became a recurring theme throughout the record. The production style (especially the arpeggiated synth in the second chorus) takes inspiration from “Uprising” by Muse. Given that it was written early on in the process, it uses more of a traditional modern song structure. It wasn’t really until the bridge after the second chorus that we realised we could be a lot more adventurous with the instrumentation, arrangement (and the time signature - sorry Jasper!). The opening riff was the first thing that Niko wrote after adopting the alternative guitar tuning that he currently uses - “fourths tuning”.

lyrics

[Verse 1]
I knew from the moment I saw you
That we were just meant to be friends
The nervous excitement took over
And suddenly days just stretched, into years
Naturally
As we made our way through the woods of change

[Chorus 1]
Love, don't fail me now
Leave me with no doubt
You set me free from all my fears
Make me smile, through all those painful tears
And like nothing's changed at all
You feed my fire when the rain falls
When it falls on me

[Verse 2]
December is casting a shadow
Renewal is slow to set in
The drops on the window reminding me
Of moments in time
Our breath on the glass
We wrote our names
Did I lose myself in the woods of change?

[Chorus 2]
Love, don't fail me now
Leave me with no doubt
You set me free from all my fears
Make me smile, through all those painful tears
And like nothing's changed at all
You feed my fire when the rain falls
When it falls on me

[Chorus 3]
Love, don't fail me now
Leave me with no doubt
You set me free from all my fears
Make me smile, through all those painful tears
And like nothing's changed at all
You feed my fire when the rain falls
