    Buying the album digitally but don't want to miss out on the epic 12-page 12" booklet that comes with the vinyl? Well, you're in luck!

    With Si Mitchell's beautiful album art front and back, the booklet contains literally hundreds and hundreds of photos from the 4 years it took to make this album, handwritten credits for every musician for every song, original lyric sheets and really tells the story of the project - including some awesome art from Emma Smith, Emma Young & Caylynn Adams too.

    Please note:
    1. Whilst these are the same booklet that comes in the Vinyl release, the Vinyl gatefold case has additional photos and writing in as well - if you'd like the full package, the Vinyl is the way to go (and the vinyl comes with a digital release too) :)
    2. Due to their size, the booklets have to be posted in the same packaging that the vinyl come in, so postage costs reflect this.
    3. We hope these booklets to be shipping out around early February, all going well!

lyrics

We're living inside of a culture
where we're taught to keep our heads down
you've got a job to do
so go and do it or you're left out
you can't grasp another chance nah
that one is all you get now
the mirror ain't for second glances
but I can't forget how
it feels to lock that piece away
to be myself another day
push it down inside of me
and let it out some other way
I've gotta figure it out
I need to get rid of the doubt
no more of the ignorant bickering
all of the differences I won't allow
myself to wear there chains no more
I'll pick myself up off the floor
and rise again, rise against
I know what I'll be fighting for
I'm adding this onto the
ever-growing list of reasons why
the seconds into seasons got me
piecing back my fucking mind
yea piecing back my fucking mind

A twisted misfit only lifted when I spit this
drifting with this gift addicted
I won't leave my ink constricted
I could not have predicted that
my words would have permitted
me to take this path and know
that in a moment, we existed
and we ain't here for long
so the hell am I going along
with a predetermined book of lies
that ain't where I belong
fuck no
I gotta go make my own way
got me a vision I'm following closely
solely on our own we pick our path
but they ain't set in stone
these pedestals we're putting people on
are made of paper
wait and see a gentle breeze
push it away without a paperweight
Flesh and bone and cartilage
are part of this here habitat
as far as I can tell this is the only time
they're valid at

I'm looking round
now all I can see through these blinded eyes
I was always buried underneath
the pressure of those lies
I'm gonna take this pen and push it deep into my veins
and when it burrows through the skin
I know I'll never be the same
It's calling out my name
the muse is drawing nearer
inch out of this bubble
'til the songs becoming clearer
yeah, I hear her
and I ain't giving up not on that light
laying down my arms just ain't
an option in this fight
