lyrics

Cloud, come undone.
The thousand raindrops that I am,
they all collide and dance within this tempest I made to shake them up.
Oh, but they won't fall down, I can't fall as one; just not sublime enough.

Fog that I am, not so far beyond the moon,
I cry the snow until the sun's not setting on my atmosphere.
Starlight through me wakes up who I am; you saw right through me friend.

In surrender to this sweet fear,
I felt gravity pull me near.
Finally listened to these raindrops,
pull me back down to the earth.
Let me find rebirth.

On horizons, wheels spinning, cloudless sky, a new beginning.
Sunlight shows the way out of your head.
Waving hands from passing cars; no more need be said.
We will meet again.
I'll see you, my friend.
I'll see you, my friend.

Scissorgames

From the first to the last note, this is a highly accomplished offering. Moving through various themes and movements, the songs on the album lead us by the hand of fate from heartbreak, through despair, and onwards to eventual hope, acceptance and redemption. Charlie Bramald’s lyrics and delivery are a masterclass in performance, all ably backed up by consummate and confident musicianmanship from the band members. Highly recommended. Dean Thom
