lyrics

I called you into my life
There on the edge of the water
My nightmare materialised
But I knew that you wouldn't harm me

It takes a dream to be daring
To see the golden thread
That stitches together
These moments in time
It's not just coincidence

Today I feel no fear
Today I'm glad to be here

Infinity spirals
When I meet you
Down by the dam
I jumped out of my body
& sang to the stars
I didn't want to forget
That I am a part of you
Although a scared, sick shadow
May wash over my face
You see me in sunlight
The curve of my back
As I dip underwater
Like Pisces, in the beginning
Like we never existed at all
Like all this concrete couldn't contain
The bounty
& the flowering of your grace
To see you before me
So close to the ground
So quiet in your power
I came back to earth
& let you pass by

Sometimes I feel like I'm chasing my tail
But if the snake eats its own
Then the head of the dragon
Shows me
That the search is never ending
Start anywhere
& I'll meet you there

Today I feel no fear
Today I'm glad to be here

Reshaping my misunderstanding
False starts and bad landings

Haukijärvi

Exceptional ambient album. One of the best that I've come across in 2017. Well written and produced beautiful drifting music that doesn't get bogged down with any sort of monotony that plagues a lot of ambient releases. Great use of instrumentation, and everything flows very well. This is what I call a great listening experience. 10/10 tonepoet
