Limited Edition Compact Disc
Compact Disc (CD) + Digital AlbumThese days? it's just nice to have something to hold on to.
Beautiful photography and design from Jon, slightly different track-listing, plenty of unnecessary text on the inlay and a silvery disc that could make a serviceable coaster if you've nothing to play it on.

lyrics
A tiny attic window, dark split, stripped by moonlight
Years of endless evenings, with no signs of life
An incantation whispered, a narrow world watched
Comic books and coke cans, hours of ritual lost
After twelve I wind the lever, silence, no ballerina white
An invisible game, every turn the same
Until tonight
We were playing at the crown of the house
"""Hey look what I found, makes a beautiful sound"
Listen close"
The dust shook from the teeth of the comb
And we were not alone, "Lean in, see it spin
Through its notes"
You danced away
Into a cylinder of light
You danced away
And music filled the night
Welcome home
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
Welcome home
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
Welcome home
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
Welcome home
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
Where did you go/
An orchestrina with a golden hue
What harm could it do, to me and you?
None at all
You danced away
And then? I don't recall
Welcome home
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
Welcome home
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
The room is long with shadows, the mirror shines my age
These long decades of longing, now finally repaid
You're still the child you were when you slipped from the page
the thoughts that I have conjured, the promises I've made
To fulfil this pact, this tesseract, this midnight parade
This is how we celebrate, this is how you stay the same
But look closer
Oh, You've changed
Welcome home
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
Welcome home
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
You disappeared, in a swirl of red and black
But now you're here
I wonder what you brought back
Welcome home
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
Welcome home
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
Welcome home
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
Welcome home
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
Where did you...?
Years of endless evenings, with no signs of life

"""Hey look what I found, makes a beautiful sound"

The dust shook from the teeth of the comb
And we were not alone, "Lean in, see it spin

Into a cylinder of light
You danced away
And music filled the night
Welcome home

Where did you go?

Where did you go?
Where did you go?

Where did you go?
Where did you go?
