Count out every
Tentative step
Without these details
Just what would be left
Oh who could I be
Without the unnecessary
Only the darkness knows
The details they kill me
What to wear and what to eat
The details won’t let me
Get hardly any sleep
Oh who could I be
Without the unnecessary
Only the darkness knows
When my eyes are blurred
And my mind is blurred
What should I recognise as truth
When my eyes are blurred
And my mind is blurred
What should I recognise as truth
The details speak always
Of looming catastrophe
When the numbers are wrong
But I’m sick of this fallacy
Oh who could I be
Without the unnecessary
Only the darkness knows
Oh who could I be
Without the unnecessary
Only the darkness knows
Some really beautiful solo guitar music. Really interesting use of repetition, moments of sublime melodic release, and intensely rhythmic sections that highlight the rich possibilities of the guitar. Mark Timmins
A beautiful album of loose, warm and relaxed folk music with a twist. It's like lying down on the floor on a Sunday morning with golden sunlight streaming down on your face through a dirty window. Mark Timmins
