This is another fantastic song from a truly wonderful band. Fiercely independent they have produced some of the best underappreciated music during the last decade. Outstanding.
Favorite track: Ribbons.

lyrics
She tore me to ribbons
Guess that’s all I am
Heaven sows the seeds of light
I just turned and ran
A halo, light tripping, I’m absolved of a thousand expectations
It’s a shame though, to be slipping
See those embers down below
In all the worlds
I would never succumb
To the lights flickering
Tempting the flames, the flame
I am made of splinters
Scattered from the shards
Heaven tricks my path with light
For every fallen star
Daemon, guide me slowly I’m ashamed of a lifetime of weakness,
Am I the white crow
Secrets lost in the mouth of vertigo
A fate that’s winding
These ribbons become strings
To the place, it’s quickening
it shakes it’s mighty wings
Like connoisseurs they picked me
Out of the shallow bowl
Promising division
To tear my gentle soul
I am cut from mother
Head up on the spike
So far from shepherd’s pasture
into the open wide
a jaw line, blood dripping from the strike
still alive but barely breathing
in a while I’ll tend again and amend for my shadow
My path is fortune
My price sharp and cold
My light is flickering
Guess that’s all I am
Heaven sows the seeds of light
I just turned and ran
A halo, light tripping, I’m absolved of a thousand expectations
It’s a shame though, to be slipping
See those embers down below
In all the worlds
I would never succumb
To the lights flickering
Tempting the flames, the flame
I am made of splinters
Scattered from the shards
Heaven tricks my path with light
For every fallen star
Daemon, guide me slowly I’m ashamed of a lifetime of weakness,
Am I the white crow
Secrets lost in the mouth of vertigo
A fate that’s winding
These ribbons become strings
To the place, it’s quickening
it shakes it’s mighty wings
Like connoisseurs they picked me
Out of the shallow bowl
Promising division
To tear my gentle soul
I am cut from mother
Head up on the spike
So far from shepherd’s pasture
into the open wide
a jaw line, blood dripping from the strike
still alive but barely breathing
in a while I’ll tend again and amend for my shadow
My path is fortune
My price sharp and cold
My light is flickering
