about

The fourth single from Finn's upcoming second album 'Into the Arms of Ghosts' - released 22nd October.

lyrics

The bitter taste of city air on my tongue.
And the back of his head round every corner I turn.
How can one place carry all of these hearts?
All these futures, hopes and dreams and false starts.

Nothing beyond
sandstone blonde.
Granite and grey,
nothing to say.

Oh, northbound train.
Oh, northbound train.
Oh, I’m counting on you to deliver what stone can’t contain,
northbound train.

Show me starlight on a sky of pitch black.
Send me uphill with the wind on my back.
Oh, give me to the lochan. I am hers to keep.
And let these flashbacks slip away as I sleep.

Tenement red,
unmade bed.
Granite and grey
falls away.

Oh, northbound train.
Oh, northbound train.
Oh, deliver me please to where only my freedoms remain,
northbound train.

Oh, oh, oh.
Oh, oh, oh.
Oh, oh, oh.

Oh, deliver me please to where only my freedoms remain
northbound train
