about

"Langnes' guitar intro on "Loralyn (And the River Lady Within)" is almost harp-like, both in sound and in plucking approach, accompanied by Viken's mellotron and synth patches. This track channels the Postal Service, employs Knudsen one final time for backing vocals, and concludes with a troubled dissonance." -Justin Carlton

lyrics

The winter came as she turned away, he had pushed it all too far. And her helplesness was all he ever saw. His ego broke; it was when he woke in his sheets so cold and strange. And the loneliness now sleeping in his arms. The finite love and the cause-effect when he stabbed her lonely heart, it is over now -they will always be apart.
The aftermath of a bad mistake -unconcious or awake- can flush you out into the lonely currents, and then you'll know: That confidence is a fragile beast. It changes what you see. When overdosed or absent none will follow. You dissappear. The present changes; so tricky to grasp, but it always is around. His backward movements, and mirrored eyes will long for her, and see her now she's gone.
Her finite love wasn't finite at all! He brought it on himself. She left him and his self-destructive currents. These final lines, they are nothing at all; no pleeding or excuse. They're present ghosts, his shame, and that he loves you.
