about

Olivia Lumen is the second single from the forthcoming album "Entelechy" by Sandy Bell to be released on September 15, 2023.

lyrics

Olivia Lumen is a very brave woman.
She lives in the woods with her husband.
He is a mechanic.
He fixes broken things.


Olivia Lumen
{ her son has gone away }
She does not cry
{ washes clothes night and day }
She feeds the goats
{ they’re children don’t you see }
and names the crows
{ Liv, Charlie, Josephine }.


And yeah, it’s been awhile
and sure the memories subside some
Victory would be to hide from
any thought of you.

But the scientists have shown
the truth of a black hole
will swallow all the light around it
until we don’t exist.
Until we don’t exist no
Until we don’t exist.




Now in the evening
{ it can’t hurt forever }
a fire is glowing.
{ it can’t hurt forever }
She’ll make him supper
{ they will hurt together }
and play their records.
{ it might hurt forever }

Chorus
And yeah, it’s been awhile
and sure, the memories subside some
Victory would be to hide from
any thought of you.

But the scientists have shown
the truth of a black hole
will swallow all the light around it
until we don’t exist.
Until we don’t exist no
until we don’t exist.


And in the end we’ll see
Just why we have to leave.
Our victory will be to sing
In spite of all that’s gone....
