Saturn Devours His Children - Rooftop Session

Happy to announce that I have a new acoustic session to share with you all. It’s a new song called ‘Saturn Devours His Children.’  The song was filmed int he summer of 2020 on the top of my friend Tilman’s roof in Hamburg, Germany.

The song was inspired by the painting by Francisco Goya, who painted this deeply haunting picture on the wall of his house:

The painting was inspired by the Greco-Roman myth of the god Saturn (Or Cronus in the greek Mythology) who eats his children after they were born because he was afraid they’d rise up and become more powerful than him.

LYRICS

A falling star
Her heavenly body
Dissolve to night
Great bulging eyes
As you devour her

And out from the womb
Out from the Void
Rings of light
The babe she cries
As you devour her

And we all go round the sun
Once more
And we all go round the sun
Once more
