about

Imagine a black and white Ingmar Bergman film set off the beaten rural medieval path. A timely rumination on the effects of (“small p”) political bullying.

lyrics

A lost forest path they crowd beside.
Beckoning for me to join them inside.
Comfort and feast, lay next to the fire.
Disguising the bitterest taste of the mire.
And this cold night like steel through the veins.
Their is beauty but beauty brings pain.
When you're all alone with the walls closing in.
The pain's in your heart as the witch twists the pins.
Broken twisted, all feeling long gone.
My eyes do plead to look what they'd done.
Smiles that creep, crazed to their souls.
Now only sleep, my life they had stole.
