about

A wry study of depression, personified as a young man who accompanies the protagonist throughout his life. At first a sinister and alarming presence, they grow to understand each other better as the years wear on - and perhaps with understanding comes some sense of reconciliation.

lyrics

A Sunday afternoon in Kentish Town
The wind been turning norther for a week
I found an empty bench and sat me down
And the young man sat beside me turned to speak.

​He said, "I'm wearier than my few years should allow,
And the sanctity of my silence is a sham.
I know I must get through this all somehow,
But days I don't remember who I am."

And ​I said, "Hold on tight, try not to let go."

​His hair was wild and matted to his face
The sorrow in his eyes cut to the bone
His voice, as dry as winter leaves, was that
Of a man who reaped more than he had sown.

​I said, "Hold on tight, try not to let go."

​There was something in his voice that chilled me through
There was something in his words almost malign
There was something in the story that he told
That but for luck could easily be mine

​Years gone by and sometimes I still see
A matchstick figure in the corner of my eye
And now I know that one day he will be
Right there sat beside me when I die

Saying, "Hold on tight, time now to let go."
