Icelander 04:46
Icelander I didn't realise How much you had control of me I'm just about to be, alone at sea I want to find my way I want to write everything I can't believe you I can't believe you I'm waiting for the hour To change to noon It's going to be a Thursday A Thursday too soon. I captured all the fish I could muster that morn Thinking of a new land A new land to the north Your fingers bleed on harp strings Your fingers look so sore Is this you in black and white ? When will i get the real colour ? No more will I wait No more will I wait I have to leave tomorrow Sold out to eye sight Over miles and miles away A dear old battered silver birch Where there's a teacher There's a base line Looking for signs in the dirt Looking for tracks in the wood Looking for signs in the woodwork Looking for tracks under hoods of leaves Trying to tread carefully Trying to walk without thinking What's ageing doing to me? What's ageing doing to you and me ? What's ageing doing to you and me ?

Time Itself Disappears Senses overloading Memories overflowing Time itself disappears Sleeping on blackened pages Golden rocks lining the shore Pack your travelling pills Do not lie dormant Everything returns to the wind.

Did You Ever See Me? I know that i've been gone so long But i know no other way The one thing that saved me Is the one thing that pushed you away I cannot stop the dark clouds What has flown over and what is now gone Will we finish what we began Will we pour each other away Remembering how we forget and forgetting things between us are not o.k. Darkness sighs celestial rhymes Cascading down in droves Echoed out your troubled guise Through the hole that's now in my boat I hope that you can look back and see we had good times, when we were together Will we finish what we began Will we pour each other away Remember how we forget and forgetting what it takes to walk away Do you ever see me Did you ever see me?

Palace Parade This morning got me thinking About the palace parade The guardsmen and their horses All but turned away Stranded My head caves If i knew you were going Leaving, empty days Maybe I was thoughtless Maybe unkind Perhaps you needed more from me But more you couldn't find Stranded In houses of glass It's a dying call That puts a hand back in a hand Stranded In a home without a heart Slowly You let your hurt die in my arms This morning got me thinking About the palace parade The guardsmen and their horses All but turned away.

Written by Duncan Lloyd.

Tom English plays drums on,
'Time Itself Disappears' &
'Did You Ever See Me?'

"Highly reverberant guitars shimmering like the light from beyond, and with a voice that echoes like a ghost in the back of your mind, coaxing you softly into a waking state from a dream."

"No matter where exactly the music sits stylistically, it’s all done with a gentle touch that feels as soft as air, and Lloyd’s sentiments and emotions are felt with a palpable tenderness." - Tiny Mix Tapes
