Record Tracklist

  1. Hello Dawn -:-- / -:--

how easy it was to believe everything was fine
how easily sleep came to me, just had to close my eyes
some things, once you see them, can never be unseen
now they haunt my sleep

how simple the world spun around, squarely east to west
a man puts a seed in the ground deserves what he gets
some things, once you learn them, cannot be unlearned
even though it hurts

hello dawn, chase out the night
the darkest dark: meet first light
morning comes to the horizon
on cracks of light when we open our eyes

how certain the story i heard, rehearsed in black and white
the comfort in staying so sure comes with a price

some things, once you know them, can never be unknown
and what you do, once you know, is forever yours to own
it’s yours to own

it was never easy, and certainty’s a lie
some children learn to sleep with wide open eyes
