about

Crimson Clock's 'Red Violin' is taken from their 2012 ep, 'Ingeniously Evil'.

Crimson Clocks set out to deliver the unexpected. We are definitely not your average 'rock' band! Whilst our styles do include some rock, in addition we include some Reggae, Latin, Jazz and something... intangible.

All our songs are original and cover diverse topics including revenge, the devil, vampires, viking/celtic mythology and cats to name but a few.

Generously donated by Crimson Clocks to the Raising Steam anthology, raising funds for New Futures Nepal, registered charity number 1142984.

lyrics

Smooth scarlet under my fingers
Feels like silk, feels like skin
Sensation clings and lingers
Taint of spoil, taint of sin

Scarlet, crimson, red
Case of wood, steeped in blood
Thirsty, sated, fed
The red violin is calling

Hear it cry your name
In the night, in the dark
Calls you to its game
Like a player, like a shark

Scarlet, crimson, red
Case of wood, steeped in blood
Thirsty, sated, fed
The red violin is calling

Sound wails from its strings
Crystal clear, can you hear?
Promises you all… things
Will you go, will you draw near?

Scarlet, crimson, red
Case of wood, steeped in blood
Thirsty, sated, fed
The red violin is calling

Every note a blade
Cold as ice, sharp as steel
Pierces to your very core
Turns within, never heals

Scarlet, crimson, red
Case of wood, steeped in blood
Thirsty, sated, fed
The red violin is calling

Nearer now you’re drawing
Feel the pull of the strings
In your soul they’re clawing
As they moan and they sing
Face to face you see it
The red violin, the siren
The last note fades then all is still
The red violin
Has found you.
