Hi there, thanks for looking. Yea, so I’ve been sitting here contemplating the current mess we are all in regarding this Coronavirus pandemic. The mess our government had made of it and what seems to be our obsession with the end of the world by virus like means.
Hi there. Yea, so this song I call ‘false hope’ initially I called it ‘death song’, but that was just a bit too morbid I guess?

Hi. Yea, so I recently watched a movie about a medieval witch, which got me thinking about the Salem Witch Trials and how women were accused of witchcraft and then stuck between the devil and the deep blue sea. This song I guess is about a man who loses his love as she’s accused of being a witch. Thanks for looking.
