about

This track was initiated by the guitar riff, with its rolling arpeggiation suggesting waves. The chromatic chord progression, something I can't help but be drawn to, evoked a cold, grey, sea. On the distant horizon I could see a flat featureless island, and on its remote and hostile shore, cowered a group of anonymous, forbidding birds.

lyrics

Far away,
Far away,
Grey the birds,
Crouched on the island sand,
They look like death to me,
Can you see?
They can sense the fear.
Hold me near.

Far away,
Far away,
Take me there,
Far from their evil stare,
Waiting to take my soul,
Devour it whole,
Eyes that pierce the skin.
Don’t let them in.
