The song is inspired by Brodka’s trip to Mexico:
I was surprised at how people of this country approach to the matter of death. Children at a very young age are taught that death isn’t anything distressing. It’s just another stage of life, “life after life”. The song is a record of the conversation...
Hey, little death
I can feel your breath upon my neck
Hey not quite yet
Come with me and I will make you tame
Soon you will find
A magic light
Hey, once you're mine
You will never stop to wonder why
Hey I will come
Take your hand
Together we are one
Soon you and I
Will rule the night
Bring your love and say
Nothing is wrong
I'll carry your bones wherever
Bring your dusty dread
Keep me with you
Hold me and stay forever
Hey, sing with me
Father death how sweet your love can be
Oh, Mother night
I fear the day
I wish it never may come
Soon what was said
Will be undone
Bring your love and say
Nothing is wrong
I'll carry your bones wherever
Bring your dusty dread
Keep me with you
Hold me and stay forever
