about

떨어지는 낙엽을 빛 바랜 빨간 머리와 얼룩진 금발머리로 은유하는 아름다운 가사로 시작하는 첫 곡 ' A Thing That Used to Be a Home'은 문명에 귀속되어 이제는 돌아갈 수 없는, 한때는 우리 모두의 집이었을 자연을 바라보며 느끼는 향수를 차분히 노래하는 에릭의 쓸쓸한 음색이 은은한 기타, 그리고 중반부터 유려하게 흐르는 바이올린의 선율을 타고 전해진다. 자연을 '집'에, 도시와 문명을 '길'에 비유하며 자신을 이 길의 밖으로 데려다 달라 이야기하고 있다.

lyrics

1. A Thing That Used To Be A Home

A tinted red-head there
Dirty blond here
Your hairs are slowly falling off

They fall and sit on the rooftop
alongside the river
sweeping the surface of the blue
and your sorrow do they allude

I don’t remember when you were a home
to me..

Facing your way, I gaze
upon the remnants of August
There’s a wall between us
and it’s cold as love gone wrong

I don’t remember when you were a home
to us
I don’t remember when there were no roads
on earth..

Take me off this road..
Take me away.
