Taken from the band’s official Facebook page:
Some of you have been asking the meaning of the song. This was our response in an interview when did when the album was released..
“Broken Light is one of our more recent tunes and was written after both of us had just become fathers for the first time....
Where I see my child
can I bend the light
on tip-toes too long
when I get knocked down
celebrate this time
let me paint myself
colour runs down eyes through hands to ground.
How’s it feel when its on the wall?
when you're out you're out cold
so long, I said you walked the line too long
I said you backed the wrong horse for sure
I saw you shut your eyes, and run
you shed your skin again my child.
Broken Light was written by Solomon Grey.
Broken Light was produced by Solomon Grey.
Solomon Grey released Broken Light on Fri Mar 18 2016.
