about

The inspiration for Grey Waltz Blue comes from Beth’s work with survivors of family violence. The song conveys a sense of the incredibly difficult journey undertaken by each survivor leading up to their decision to leave a violent relationship. It aims to spark conversation around this issue, and how each of us can play a role in decreasing its prevalence in our communities.

10% of proceeds will go towards InTouch Multicultural Centre Against Family Violence. www.intouch.asn.au

lyrics

The same rules cradle me
Crouching quiet beneath
Leaving such sweet nothings bare
In shattered stone and lidded stare

Shock me into pieces
That feather the floor
And your coat tails thunder
The scalloped dogs roar

Candles shade the room
The expression on your face
As I read your glittered whisper
Of open doors and reckless space

But those clear horizons
Fall sheer from my feet
Like the fresh cut flowers
Soon crushed underneath

and we danced all night through
lost inside the Grey Waltz Blue

Space and endless time
Wears the pulleys, shifts the light
As I look behind your silhouette
To falling weights and tearing nets

Stretch my nascent roots
Down into the peat
Leaving bone white flagstones
Washed clean on the street
