A tale of despair and isolation, the first track since our Debut EP Bury a Black Owl. Big thanks to Pitch Black Audio for the awesome mix.

lyrics

Unfortunate man
Wife dead by spring
To know one’s self forgiven is
To live like a king

Unfortunate man
Wealthy only in ills
A stranger to rest and his country men
Reapin’ alone, weepin’ alone in the hills

You were born of a hermit
Gratuitous child
There never was a morning in your life you
Greeted with a smile

Lowly dog
Trodden underfoot for thirteen seasons
Don’t you run no more
This land’s no friend of yours
Hang your head

Candle in the stable
Casts shadows over the field
Fresh meat on the table
Fresh fates, waiting to be sealed

Lay to rest the sickle
Lay to rest the plough
Call your firstborn from the forrest
Call him home now

These days aren’t worth the countin’
They’re turning workmen to slaves
The only sound is the foot of the mountain
Begging you to dig some more graves

Lowly dog
Trodden underfoot for thirteen seasons
Don’t you run no more
This land’s no friend of yours
Hang your head
