about

This is a track from our upcoming LP ‘Patchwork’, and was created out of a period of isolation from the outside world, when basic human connection was replaced by distant longing. With so many immediate luxuries available to distract ourselves from our true feelings, this song is about the modern challenge of overcoming our habitual electronic ticks and constant stimulation to confront the overbearing loneliness of being with one's self.

lyrics

Follow the candlelight,
Into the lonely night,
No doubt what you will find,
Is as lost as I,
I dipped into the dive,
To tackle the lonely night,
It was the hardest damn thing that I had ever tried.

Fists clenched tight,
We fought through the night,
We raced for the prize,
Like everything was al - right.

Feeling up tight,
Feeing I can't decide,
If I could confide oh,
Would it be all,
That right.

Oh my is this just a dream?
Shut down by my own machine,
Separated from reality,
I was hoping you'd be there with me.

Through the lonely nights,
Through the lonely nights,
Through the lonely nights,
Lonely nights.
