“The opening song Farewell To All We Know seems torn between the fear of what tomorrow may bring, inevitability and hope for the future in a permanent and progressive dramatic tension expressed by his Spanish guitar, the impressionist style piano and Matt’s voice teetering on the edge of whispers.

Farewell to all that we know
All that we’ve left behind
All that we have let go
All we’ll never find
All that we came to love
All that we let go wrong
Say farewell and adieu
Say so long
As we dance on
Dance on
Stumble on
Farewell to all that we know
As it slowly decays
Farewell folly of youth
Welcome end of days
We were never equipped to survive anyway
Asking if it’s too late
As we’re washed away
Yes my friends
It’s too late
It’s too late
Farewell to liars
And to those who will distort the truth
To their end
When it suits
Eye for eye
Tooth for tooth
Truth is truth
Farewell to all that we know
Farewell to this fine place
And to all that we’ve built
All we’ve laid to waste
Cheers to all that we had
And to all that’s now gone
Say goodbye and so long
As we dance on
We dance on
Dance on
Stumble on
Dance on
Soldier on
