about

Trails of Truth is a letter to a past seen through rose-coloured glasses. It explores how the deeply buried roots of yesterday grow and strangle the soul with regret and how our past misdeeds shape the present. It is a message sent out across a dry landscape, not to a lover, but the false idea that only others can fill our cup.

lyrics

There’s something that I need to know
How is it that my garden grows
Dig the dirt and hope to find
All the years I left behind

Sending out a message to you
Blowing red dust across the trails of truth
Listen to my silent ode
Let it reach your lonely desert road
When the cold winds come let the dancing fire in

Every day has haunting dreams
Roses blooming, home again
This bed of vines I lie within
Gripping, growing round my skin

Why do you shut the door
On everything you were before
You rip the roots that come and go
Your barren land where nothing grows


Sending out a message to you
Blowing red dust across the trails of truth
Listen to my silent ode
Let it reach your lonely desert road
When the cold winds come let the dancing fire in

Think of me when sirens sound
Hopeless withered on the ground
They’ll always be this glowing blaze
Forgive me for my cruel, cruel ways

Sending out a message to you
Blowing red dust across the trails of truth
Listen to my silent ode
Let it reach your lonely desert road
When the cold winds come let the dancing fire in

Sending out a message to you
Blowing red dust across the trails of truth
Listen to my silent ode
Let it reach your lonely desert road
When the cold winds come let the dancing fire in
When the cold winds come let the dancing fire in
