Safe House

TheSlowMusicMovement Take a look deep inside, behind the bravado, stoicism and forced smiles with Hourloupe, as they delve into the subconscious shadows, guided by a comfortingly poetic, almost ASMR like narration that holds your hand whilst your subconscious fears, desires and most private dreams are revealed.

lyrics

When peace arrives
Smuggled here by a shadow
I wonder who will be left in the house
To open the door when the soft knock rattles the window

And words are exchanged
In tones so low
No one could possibly know

The way parents seem to a child
In the room down below

Language melted, the space between syllables wide and whiter than snow

When peace arrives
And there is no home
And no windows to peer in
On tiptoe

And no curtains to see through to shadows

And the shadow has gone

And in the old barn
On the edge of the lawn barely visible
Another door is open

And leads to a room so dark
Its borders seem to pulse

Peace will know it has arrived
And that this is a house
