From the upcoming album - So Long to Looking In

lyrics

The sky turned a pale green
With light set in-between
And the sound of feet
Was the sound of arrival
I saw a light flicker on
Too bright so I moved along
And took a ride beyond
Far behind them
You see the further you ride form here
The clearer the sky
And the fear disappears
To a simpler horizon
That's why I tripped the wire

The night drew sleep
And I made this pact to keep
As the threat of rain took aim at the rooftops
And the ground felt rough to touch
A mix of iron and rust
Then through the air came the sound of an engine
You see the further you ride form here
The clearer the sky
And the fear disappears
To a simpler horizon
That's why I tripped the wire
