The Fall Of Glorieta Mountain - Esben and the Witch

I thought I saw you by the side

Illuminating foreign climes

A figment, a splinter, a vessel for me

To wander as freely as I’ll ever be

Shrapnel stars puncture brightly

Wounding skies that stretch so widely

Over dunes of dust, in shades of rust

Where shadows claim the both of us

Is that an answer or is this an echo?

Are you the answer or are you an echo?

These godly skies kindly provide

The perfect scene for our goodbyes

A providence, so palpable

It sets aflutter, palpiter

Bleached by the moonlight

Bathed in bonewhite

Under cover of cobalt and shelter of slate

You appeared immaculate

Is that an answer or is this an echo?

Are you the answer or are you an echo?

I know that distance lends enchantment to the view

But I know that I see you and I know you see me too

And so I called out
