I wrote the song dust to remind myself that nothing can be taken for granted.
I am also very drawn to the music of film because it reflects the stories so vivid and sometimes greater than life itself. That was what I was reaching for creating this song.
lyrics
All we are is dust, I borrowed this life
in you my love I trust, to hold me tight
Bones you made for me, so I could be free
in you my love I trust, to make me see
I borrowed this life, I borrowed the night, I borrowed the day
All we are is dust, becoming the night
in you my love I trust, to win all the fights
I borrowed this life, I borrowed the night, I borrowed the day
Skin you made for me, so I could feel
In you my love I trust
I borrowed this life, I borrowed the night, I borrowed the day
