about

Echoes in the Dust masterfully melds DeVault‘s luminous vocals and harmonies with Jossi‘s rich tapestry of guitar soundscapes. Embodying the tender pull of days gone by and steadfast optimism, this song stands as a beacon for those who hold tight to defining memories, even against the relentless tide of time. As autumn‘s melancholy sets in, it beckons listeners to recall the dreams and days that resonate deeply within.

This time, there’s something special - we will be releasing the song in 2 versions (on Bandcamp). In addition to the jangle-pop version, a “melancholia version” will also be available.

lyrics

When the day gets dark
And the end is near
These will be the days that I dream of

When the quiet comes
And I’m all alone
These will be the moments that I dream of

I love this life we’ve built
And the dreams that we kept chasing
Even when the world gave up on us
I love this life we’ve built
And the dreams that we kept chasing
Even when the world gave up on us

When it’s all said and done
And I’m all alone
These will be the days that I dream of

When the sun finally sets
And there’s nothing left
These will be the moments that I dream of

I love this life we’ve built
And the dreams that we kept chasing
Even when the world gave up on us
I love this life we’ve built
And the dreams that we kept chasing
Even when the world gave up on us

These will be the days
These will be the days
I remember
These will be the days
These will be the days
I remember
These will be the days
These will be the days
I remember
