there is no exaggeration
i am truly alone
100 million clicks
and 8 long months from home
but i'm holding to my promise
i'll land and plant the flag
for god and corporation
and the glory of all man
there's no law that could touch me
my sins are mine to keep
i'm a rocket, i'm an island
and on my shore she sleeps
i'm not coming back from here
i've been too far
i'm cold but i'm not scared
in the Spirit of Shackleton
there are droplets of crimson
they surround me as they drift
bonding together
or bursting into mist
so i open up my mouth
and i offer out my tongue
they are salty and sweet
like the memory of love

It takes a Glen Phillips penned Toad backed tune to so enigmatically describe every other breakup you've had.
This just never gets old.

the counter rhythms and syncopations on "So Far Away" are worth the price of admission...
plover is masterful on every level... listen and share this one far and wide, folks...
I love each of them separately, and found my way here via Glen Phillips' other solo work...but together?! WOW!
How about a follow-up? ❤️ Geoffrey Gamble
