about

The bands version of a country gospel song, featuring a wall of guitars in the absence of a choir – a baritone electric, a 12 string electric, a 12 string acoustic, open tuned Martin and Gibson steel strings, and a ghost of a resonator. Written by Nick O’Mara and one of the three tracks sung by him on the album, lyrically it’s a meditation on deliverance and corruption, and archetypes of good and bad – knowing those things when you see them, when they’re close by and out there in the world.

lyrics

Velvet lips speaking truth in the face of liars

Fingertips, trace my name in the sand tonight

Sinking ships, setting all that you love on fire

This is this, to the heavens I turned and I cried

And every night, through the darkness and the light,

We say our goodbyes



Poison gifts, given by the weak to the kind

Timid souls, scratching there mark in the wild

Love is bold, like a child pure as the night

And the cold truth, always gets found by the light

And every night, through the darkness and the light,

We say our goodbyes



And every night, through the darkness and the light,

We say our goodbyes



Silver shines in the corner of my blue eyes,

Punching blind into power and all of it's lies,

To the stupid and cruel, the greedy the fools

Say goodbye tonight

To the golden and true, the light's there for you

Turn your face to the sky



And every night, through the darkness and the light,

We say our goodbyes
