    Story Behind the Song
    this is the studio version of Consolation Prize. i kept it simple. still mainly just vocals and acoustic guitar but for dramatic effect we threw in an accordian lead part and some eerie keyboard noises.

    the song itself is a sadder tune. basically about longing, from a far for someone, wondering what its going to take til they are smart enough to come around. Its not meant to be a total bummer song though cuz theres a touch of hope still in it. If the person is worth it, being their consolation prize isn't so bad. However, the 4 million dollar question is always, is the person worth it?

    Lyrics
    Kill the night
    like the light's gone out
    Still and alone you will breathe
    Head in hands and my drinks run out
    a thrist i'll never relieve

    The sun don't shine
    when its light outside
    and nothing can get you to move
    When stars go hollow and hearts fall down
    you swallow the glow of the moon
    yeah you swallow the glow of the moon

    so, long you run pretty baby
    then come to days when you cry
    come back to me and stay
    for everyday
    consolation prize
    i'm your consolation prize

    Kill the silence with strumming guitars
    in rythms that i couldn't keep
    find the words that could win your heart
    beside you then i could sleep
    then beside you i'd sleep

    so long you run pretty baby
    then come to days when you cry
    come back to me and stay
    for everyday
    consolation prize
    i'm your consolation prize
