Two of my paths diverged in wood
I took the one less travelled by
Thought that it would
Stiffen up my shoes
But I used up all my arrows
Shooting down the sparrows
That I thought were only cherubs
Sent from you
Back before the dawn
Still I just kept moving on
I don’t know what
Pursued me on my way
But the western sky grew dim
The further that I reached for it
The farther that it seemed
To stretch away
But I’m gonna go down to Jasper
To see just what comes after
All this pain
When I get down to the water
I know that I’ll be cleaner once again
That’s why I just have to go my friend
So i read the dead sea scrolls
Talked to all the animals
And I read up every sign
Along the way
They didn’t say too much
The legends I have heard enough
I thought that they could never
Change my fate
But I’m gonna go down to Jasper
To see just what comes after
All this pain
When I get down to the water
I know that I’ll be cleaner once again
That’s why I just have to go my friend
I know that there’s no sign
No preaching past or peace of mind
That ever could relieve me all my days
The desert’s made of sands
The sky it tries with feeble hands
To hold onto the wind that slips away
But I’m gonna go down to Jasper
To see just what comes after
All this pain
When i get down to the water
I know that I’ll be cleaner once again
Two of my paths diverged in wood
I took the one less travelled by
Thought that it would
Stiffen up my shoes

A soon to be bedroom pop classic, with all the nuances of Sigur Ros, and the fragile modern beauty of Keaton Henson. This record is haunting and nostalgic in its closeness. Alex Mason
A shadowy, mystic nature encapsulates the listener on Light, I'll Call Out Your Name "Darkness", an album that pervades the senses with an air of deep conversation and candlelight. Alex Mason
