now we're so far from flight, butterflies in a frame
one day we might, light everything
staying up late, for bonfire and cake
pray to the saints, help is on the way
oh well
be the one that will
tear the day apart
for you’re only a part of the world
now give bread to the trees, outside of your door
a garden at ease, long into the war
winter of dreams, ending in the spring
an old color scheme, to help keep you warm

Got this record as a birthday gift from a bandmate and it coincided with the loss of my grandmother and a painful trip east to see to final arrangements. It provided both company and consolation during that difficult journey and thematically, is spot-on for this season of life. Can’t say enough good things about these guys. Creep Church

This is just one of those albums that are in the perfect place at the perfect time. If you described it to me, I probably wouldn't listen to it, so just go listen to it. Seriously. You'll be glad you did. Morgan LaVigne
