“Heart in Two” by Reuben and the Dark – A Song Review

    Probably because members are from different cities, Reuben and the Dark broadly identify their hometown as Canada. The strength of the band lies in its versatility. Members are multi-instrumentalists and while the voice of Reuben Bullock is featured, all five members contribute to the vocals. The vocal power of the band is best evidenced in their 2014 release of “Devil’s Time.”

     Reuben and the Dark will begin a short tour on June 4 with a performance at Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California. The occasion is the annual Live 105 BFD concert. They will likely play the 2016 release “Heart in Two,” which is embedded below, along with the lyrics.

     The members of the band are Reuben Bullock (guitar, lead vocals), Shea Alain (guitar, vocals), Kaelen Ohm (guitar, vocals), Brock Geiger (drums, vocals), and Ian Jarvis (bass, guitar, keys, vocals).

Lyrics of “Heart in Two” by Reuben and the Dark

Waiting there

A dawn before a darkness fell
I'm lost, but not alone
And all my words have turned to stone again

Take me with you

When you carry me away
And I will throw all of these words

I have to say

But you're still the storm cloud

But I love you just the same
While you're out

Killing shadows with your shade

And I broke my heart in two
One for me and one for you
And I broke my heart in two
One for me and one for you

Trouble and I

A long lost kind
Statue of one hundred

Blinking lights

Well, I built this wall around you

So no one else could hurt you
But now I'll trade

You truth for truth

And you’re still a storm cloud

But I love you just the same

And I broke my heart in two
One for me and one for you
And I broke my heart in two
One for me and one for you
And I broke my heart in two

You say reverie came over me
Like fire, like blood, like sunlight
You say reverie came over me
Like fire, like blood, like sunlight

And I broke my heart in two
One for me and one for you
And I broke my heart in two
One for me and one for you
And I broke my heart in two
One for me and one for you
And I broke my heart in two
One for me and one for you
