VERSE 1
Roots they twist and tangle up
A parachute of buttercups
My bodies barely moving
My body barely moves
VERSE 2
Winter stutters into spring
A pair of kits are muttering
The emptiness is blooming
The emptiness it blooms
CHORUS
When the smoke clears dimishing
When the sirens silence sings
When the seeds settle in
I’ll come home to you
I’ll come home to you
VERSE 3
In the end theres blossoming
The weigh of death awakening
My colours show I’m soothing
I smile cos your soothed
CHORUS
When the smoke clears diminishing
When the sirens silence sings
When the seeds settle in
I’ll come home to you
I’ll come home to you
INSTRUMENTAL
OUTRO
I’ll come home to you
I’ll come home
I’ll come
Home

Darkest Horse

VERSE 1
Your in my hands, at the call of my curse
Can’t tell me the way or what I should say
I’m your darkest horse, On your loneliest of days
Trust me lets go to the afterglow
VERSE 2
At the end of the night
When your all out of fight
I’m your greatest strength
And gravest mistake
Lets go into the unknown
CHORUS
You know that I
I know that hope
Hope is in everything
Let it come home
Let it come home
VERSE 3
I’ll hold you in flight
Forever your night bird
You’ll have my word
In a world without light
Unnoticed unheard I see you
CHORUS
You know that I
I know that hope
Hope is in everything
Let it come home
OUTRO
Watching, waiting
tasting the poisonous fruit,
let it come home
Feel me, fear me not,
I'll free you my dear

VERSE 1
It was a year ago today
That life took your breath away
Your first and your last
Happened so fast
And you never got to say a word
VERSE 2
So I’m singing your story for you
Keeping your memories alive
The fighter in you
Fights on in everything that we all do
PRE
I’ll hold you tight
We’ve got you tightly
CHORUS
Cos they say that life
That life is for the taking
But all I’ve seen is life
Suddenly be taken
VERSE 3
One birthday, one Christmas
One chance to be alive
Your shortened existence
Was one of a kind
VERSE 4
You gave us the best of you
Determination grace
Your beauty and smile
Keep haunting us a while
PRE
I’ll hold you tight
We’ve got you tightly
CHORUS
Cos they say that life
That life is for the taking
But all I’ve seen is life
Suddenly be taken
OUTRO
You,
Were taken to soon
Why did it have to be you
A whole life left to give

Dying Quiet

VERSE 1
My feet leave the ground
With nothing but a stifled sound
And my tears are bound
To empty out
VERSE 2
And the winds they blow
To where-ever the future flows
But my heart wont go
To my mothers home
VERSE 3
Days I’m yet to lose
A life lived ordinary blues
sailing closer to
The weathered ways
VERSE 4
Watching as it grows
Horizon closing in
In a change of tack
There’s no looking back
CHORUS
Dying quiet
Whilst the sea
Waves us on
Killing softly
Leather boots on the dawn
OUTRO
Dying quietly
Dying, dawn

What We Thought Was A Lake Was A Field Of Flax

Anyone who is taking the time to read all five-hundred characters of this comment should stop wasting their time and just preview the album. In the time it would take you to read all five-hundred of these characters, you could listen to most, if not all of track four and/or eight. Unfortunately, they are both instrumental. As such, they aren't exactly representative of the entire album. So just imagine very nice vocals on top, and that's the gist of what to expect from the rest of the album 👌👌
