about

This is the original version of this song featuring Ilka, written already in or around 2008, while "Mould", sung by Sandra, is "only" another version of it, which payed respect to Sandras deeper voice.
In fact, this song came into being when I wanted to find out, how high Ilkas voice can go (thus the higher and higher notes...)
After we recorded it, she said "oh, a third higher still would have been ok..."
Any questions?^^

lyrics

Gold;
Growing anywhere
In the land of sorrow
All along the ways
A landscape bright and clear
Growing anywhere
Golden land of sorrow
All along the ways
Gold is what you wear

Gold;
Alleviate of pain
And everything is shining bright;
The darkness in your tears:
Full of golden fears

Inside there is pain
Inside there is grief
Inside there is no gold
There are only tears
And grey is all you see
Grey is all you feel
In the land of gold
