Talons Songtext
von All the Luck in the World

Knuckle down
Switchblade up your sleeve, chief
By the bonfire echoing the grief
Of this time last year

This time last year you were here

Seven hearts
Seem to weigh a tonne
Gathered here
North of Raven′s Point
Your talons retreat to reveal
Your talons retreat to reveal soft sleep
Soft sleep


This time last year you were here
In eyeshot, no ink blot
Tea leaf thoughts I fought in fear
This time last year you were here
Beside me

(It's autumn)
(It′s autumn)
It's autumn as it was a year ago
But everything's different now
That you have left the fold
With your red leaf pinned to my slate blue overcoat
Soak in the sea air
It′s the only antidote
I′m charmed and lifted by a memory I'm not in
And all that comes with it
It′s still warm enough to swim
I'll keep it so close
In fractures or intact
It′s part and parcel
But there's nothing to unpack
