Escape (ft. Halliday)

from Glow To Last [LP] by Kisnou

/

about

"Escape" « "to break free from confinement or control", to free yourself from the chains of sadness, darkness and hopelessness.

I told Sam (Halliday), who I've known for years now, to write a little poem about anything he could feel in that moment, and this is the result. I believe his voice fits perfectly to explain this feeling.

"Escape" is the opening my Glow To Last LP, the greatest album I could ever manage to put together.

lyrics

I’m truly alone yet I like it,
Yet realising such is what makes it hurt so.
Oh so, my God, this hurts.

Left in the dark, of a world drawn undone,
My head and my heart, are nothing as one.

One of those things that shakes you, fractures you,
as you take it in silence, in awe.

Leaving you with nothing in the heart nor mind,
no beat, no words, just consciousness.

But conscious stands tall.
You wake as that absent beat grows ever so faint.
Blood pulses through, a slow but steady and ever so assured revival.

Freshly fallen leaves, sun beating down on the settled snow.
Senses tingle back into your broken limbs. You stand.

Stand among this harrowed boulevard of forgotten people,
My time is not yet. Not yet.
