&Tilly – A Walk In The Dark

&Tilly - A Walk In The Dark (Cover artwork)Official music video 'A Walk In The Dark' per­formed by '&Tilly'. The slow, almost bal­lad style song 'A Walk In The Dark' is a very emo­tion­al song about the fear of the war in the neigh­bour coun­try (Ukraine).

Sonically the song has a typ­ic­al mid 90s beat like Enigma (Sadeness Pt.1) or Duran Duran (Ordinary World) had, but is also infec­ted with some mod­ern influ­ences like dark pop. If you like the ref­er­ences then 'A Walk In The Dark' would prop­erly suit you. Give it a listen!

Lyrics of '&Tilly – A Walk In The Dark'

Learn to stay alone
Learn to walk in the dark
In front, the great unknown
Only smoke instead of a spark

The cur­tains fall
The act­ors bow
The cur­tains close
A mush­room cloud

Can you see the storm
Glow a mil­lion miles away
Rumbling next-door rain
Poisons the river bay

So start and
Learn to stay alone
Learn to walk in the dark
In front of great unknown
Hide in smoke and sparks

The cur­tains fall
The act­ors bow
The cur­tains close
A mush­room cloud

The heavy-weights
Get slim­mer, still
The cur­tains close
All air feels chill

The cur­tains fall
Learn to walk in the dark
The weak­er pray
Learn to walk in the dark
The cur­tains close
No point run­ning away

Learn to stay alone
Learn to walk in the dark
In front of great unknown
Only smoke instead of a spark

The cur­tains fall
The cur­tains fall
The act­ors bow
The act­ors bow
The cur­tains close
The cur­tains close
A mush­room cloud

No point
In run­ning away
A mush­room cloud
In run­ning away
A mush­room cloud
In run­ning away

And run­ning away

&Tilly about 'A Walk In The Dark'

A Walk in the Dark is anoth­er of our synth-heavy indie elec­tron­ic / syn­thpop tracks, this time deeply inspired by the Fallout game series T was accom­pan­ied by since child­hood and which she still loves so deeply. The AWITD song depicts a post-war world, a pic­ture of dark­ness becom­ing a warn­ing against war and the destruc­tion and fear it brings that is so close to us at the moment, in fact right behind the bor­der, in Ukraine.
