Here's my cover of the currently unknown song "Quiero Encontrar". It's an awesome, simple and yet mysteriously dark tune that appears to have originated in the late 80s or early 90s in Spain. The original was sung in Spanish, and although I studied Spanish for 2 years, my understanding and pronunciation is utterly terrible. So, I took the liberty of translating it to English whilst still attempting to keep the original meaning intact. (And still make it rhyme!)
If this song, or the original, is recognisable to you in any way, please do let me know. Would absolutely love to track down the original artist information.

My Translated Lyrics:
A dark cloudy sky endlessly stretching over me
Clouds of my anguish, like statues of ivory
These raindrops keep falling, submerging the whole city
My chest getting colder, this emptiness swallowing me
I want to find, in the night
The safety of a deadly embrace
I want to find, a reason
To snap out of this cold wintery daze
Strange voices that tear through the darkness but don’t respond
Their cries cold as ice, feel the whispers from the beyond
Lost in the mist just waiting for the end to come
Like a frost covered bird wing, entombed in its’ fate, I am numb
I want to find, in the night
The safety of a deadly embrace
I want to find, a reason
To snap out of this cold wintery daze
I want to find, in the night
The safety of a deadly embrace
I want to find, a reason
To snap out of this cold wintery daze
I want to find (x3)
I want to find, a new place to end my wintery fate
