Maybe all that glitters ain’t gold Maybe this flame’s too hot for us to hold You wanted me to promise a lifetime But all that I needed was some time Then you took it all And it shatters me Like a thousand soldiers Standing on my hands When I was trying to hold you And it feels like You’ve taken the air from my lungs Told me to speak but cut my tongue And it’s hard to breathe when you’re hurt by the one that you love You told me I’m the only one I turn around I’m facing your gun But you tell me to hold on To hold on You left me to dry in the cold After all the hero stories that you told You wanted me to lay my life out Like a book for you to read Then you tore it all And it shatters me Like a thousand soldiers Standing on my hands When I was trying to hold you And it feels like You’ve taken the air from my lungs Told me to speak but cut my tongue And it’s hard to breathe when you’re hurt by the one that you love You told me I’m the only one I turn around I’m facing your gun But you tell me to hold on To hold on And it shatters me Like a thousand soldiers Standing on my hands When I was trying to hold you And it feels like You’ve taken the air from my lungs Told me to speak but cut my tongue And it’s hard to breathe when you’re hurt by the one that you love You told me I’m the only one I turn around I’m facing your gun But you tell me to hold on To hold on

about

Oceans of Angels is the sensational new Alternative Indie Rock project from one-man wolf pack, and sonic extraordinaire Sheldon Horvatic based in Johannesburg, South Africa. All songs are written by Sheldon, who started his career playing drums at the age of 9, and soon after mastered several additional instruments. Sheldon played drums and guitar for various South African bands in his youth, then left home to travel the world on ships, exploring and experiencing various countries and inspirational cultures. During this time sailing the oceans, Sheldon was enthused to write numerous songs, and the concept for Oceans of Angels was born.

Oceans of Angels is now ready to be unleashed, starting with the first single Shattered Soldier (releasing 23 March, mixed and mastered by Matthew Fink). Sheldon shares that “I wrote ‘Shattered Soldier’ about giving your all, but your everything just not being enough. Everybody has felt this before unfortunately, so I want people to relate to it and resonate to it in their own unique way.”

Oceans of Angels will perform with a live band, so join and enjoy the next phase of Sheldon’s thrilling journey!
