To An End 07:18
I wanna lay here I want to stay Before this World goes down Let this dawn stay sane As I can sense this all comes to an end The one you’ve been afraid of And for what I have prepared Don’t fear such inventions like hell But if I’m wrong we all will meet soon there Stare into the unknown what would you see Every breath you hold back paralyzed by fear Is a failed chance to be one with the void It’s time to wake up and see the downfall
3.
I’m not birds flying free Not clouds in the sky Not the water or the flow Not the river I am its side I’ve been formed this way Been flooded then left alone I’m the things you’re too weak to hold I’m the wreckage and the stones And I don’t reflect the sun It’s only the moon and stars shine bright on this side Whenever you return I’m gonna hold your hand And guide you through your own hell As these piles of bones Breaking the light Like zoetropes recall all you tried to hide Your childhood dreams Your wasted time Your bones will be washed away with the tide
4.
It’s so good to have you here Your warm tears on my skin Your shadow to have me in Your heavy steps on the leaves The leaves that gave their lives When sun sang you’d come And bring chimney smoke and the love that brings Peace to my heart There there I know you’re there On the mountain girl Where the seagulls sing for the glacier You wait for my return My return may never come My war may never end What I did and what I saw Salted earth will tell Who went away is gone exists no more Only as a ghost can only haunt Finding no way home
5.
Early one morning at the St James Hospital Early one morning morn in the month of May When I looked through the window And I spy the dear outlaw A dear outlaw he was cold as the clay Set here down by me and hear my sad story Set here down by me and sign me my song For my poor head is aching and my sad heart is breaking I’m a poor outlaw that knowed he done wrong Send for the doctor to come and heal up my body Send for the preacher to come and pray for my soul For my poor head is aching and my sad heart is breaking I’m a poor outlaw and hell is my doom Get sixteen pretty maiden to come and carry my coffin Get sixteen pretty maiden to come and sing me my song And tell ‘em to bring some o’them sweet smelling roses So they can’t smell me as they carry me along Beat the drums slowly and play the fife lowly Play the death march as they carry me along throw bunches of lilies all over my coffin There goes a poor outlaw and hell is my doom

No One Here 03:23
Cool wind swam on crushed sunlight Breeze, chilled heart and the music died Not one soul could make a move Only the rain danced on And no one here heard them singing And no one knows the way they sang And what they sang about The rain falls on it came to stay To wash their signs and the memories away The drops tap rhythm yet they are gone Not green but the water grows above all And no one here saw them dancing And no one knows the way they danced when they were sad And they were loved
7.
I’ve been singing through the dark in me to find Peace and calm down the fear of the light outside I’ve been screaming through the light outside to find Anyone to fight to set this world on fire Here I don’t belong this world ain’t mine I’d rather be alone than blinded in this light Where we are parallels running out of time Only rhythm no time with the shapeless friends of mine Surround me I see with your eyes what’s left and not right And only inward means free the spiral grows into the within Through the 12 to die through the 6 to rise
8.
This here will be gone as soon as the day goes by Will be lost in the grey sun but before this World comes down I can slow down time Higher than the hills lower than the stars If not amongst the trees then where the river runs We’ll meet again for one last time before this World comes down

about

Four years is a lot of time, especially without a new record. But just in case you’re wondering the past four years in the life of Dávid Makó, the Hungarian singer-songwriter known as The Devil’s Trade have been an intense journey. After "Those Miles We Walked Alone", his debut full-length saw the light of day in November 2014, not even himself had an idea of the path he is about to take.

Four years is a lot time, especially if you spend it sitting by idly. Now
that’s not something that is one of Makó’s fortes, as he spent this long period of time evolving into the artist that he is now. From his self-financed CDRs to a sold out first press of the vinyl version of Those Miles, from his first show as a solo artist at a small venue, playing in between a couple horrible tribute bands to the stages of Europe, touring with the likes of Crippled Black Phoenix and Nathan Gray Collective among many, Makó is summoned a different kind of beast. So does he on his sophomore album What Happened To The Little Blind Crow.

Makó, who spends his days changing people’s lives and improving their health as a strength trainer, bares his soul on stage and offers a piece of himself night by night and despite the “rough-around-theedges” look, intimacy, despair and hope never sounded this heartfelt and sincere. Written in nearly every corner of Europe on tourbusses, in tour vans, in the rehearsal space back home, What Happened To The Little Blind Crow is the next step in a wonderful journey. From traditional and heartbreaking Transylvanian folk, through Makó’s roots as a doom / stoner singer to the spirits of the Appalachians, this fulllength is the manifestation of an artist ever growing, ever evolving and adapting.
