S.T.I.L.T.S.

I will be done with making music under the name Dalama Jones after I finish two more projects (Home and The Dmitri Chronicles). However, I am already working on a new project, under the name S.T.I.L.T.S. (which is an acronym for Six Thousand Interlaced Lies, Truths, and Shadows). It is partially biographical, partially not. I'm not totally sure what it will sound like, but there will be singing (along with some screamos thrown in for good measure) this time around. Yes, I did intend to say screamos. I have quite a few lyrics written already ... and the cover artwork is finished. I am really looking forward to this project, and anticipate working on the music. 

 

Here is a sample of some lyrics: 

The angel danced around her halo
before it went upon her head
The sleeper wakes up
to aching eyes and sore arms
But does the sleeper find God before he awakens?

The angel stares at her halo
before knocking at the door
The sleeper goes to bed
with feelings tied in unrest
But does the sleeper find God before he awakens?

He wants to see with open eyes
He wants to see Your open arms
But he’s blinded from the answer
while the angel dances around her halo

He sifts through sand in search of stones
And thinks that cuts might bleed some hope
But he’s tired of red
And he’s tired of the piercing edge

He wants to see with open eyes
He wants to see Your open arms
But he’s blinded from the answer
while the angel dances around her halo
