Well, the black cat came home
He was a shadow of his former self
But the same one that I had known
He was as pale as a sheet, as quiet as death, and thin as a rail
We must have walked a million miles
To the edge of the map, through every trap and every maze
Pieces moved from tile to tile
Following me like a rook to a king
We needed the chase
Keep marching on
That's all you're good for
I know that you're not sure
What you're here for
The black cat finally crossed my path
Under a ladder, the mirrors were shattered, now a bad moon will rise
A red coat stretched across my back
It was a flick of the wrist, a knife with a twist, and a change of the tide
On this godless earth
The meek shall inherit nothing
Except the pains of free fall and stillbirth
Everything is here for the taking
Keep marching on
That's all there's time for
It's the disease
But it's the cure
The black cat came home
He was a shadow of his former self
But the same one that I had known
He was as pale as a sheet, as quiet as death, and thin as a rail

New songs & old uns revisited, plus a great cover from "Hem". Recorded live in studio, obviously Vanessa and the band have built a great rapport, a fine introduction if you're unfamiliar. Only question now Vanessa is are you going for an Oscar or are you happy with an independent film award? agutterfan

Fine collection of alt-country swing songs based around metaphors of travel (especially the road and by air) on the subject of hearts broken, hearts lost, and hearts mislaid. Cello adds flavour to two songs. Plus two radio edits. agutterfan

Heartbreak never sounded so pretty, literate lyrics & fine delicate melodies on mostly acoustic alt-country pop balladry. No happiness here, but honesty and harmony. agutterfan
