Land only for this fate
The skyline is not seen for many days
It feels as though
We're never turning back here
The land returns to the dust

Is there any way, to get this weight off my skin
and find another one
Is there any one, to get this writing off the wall
And find a new one, and find

Just like the wind blows into the great unknown
We are on our way, we are on our way
Moving west may bring us better days
We are on our way, we are on our way

Is there any way, to get this weight off my skin
and find another one
Is there any one, to get this writing off the wall
and find a new one, and find

An easy 7 on first listen!
The RP team keeps rolling out these long dormant classics - very much appreciated!

Please come and take me with you
While we're waiting for a badly-needed new album from these guys, check out the solo project of Josh Onstott. They're called New Mystics and there are 3-4 amazing tracks on the newly released album.
If you ever get the opportunity, go and see them play live. It's magical and shows what extraordinary musicians Other Lives are.

Then maybe you should get out more, meet new people or take up a hobby maybe.

very fairport conventionish (a good thing) the pacing is so deft
Lovely harmony, the guitars and the clarinets (i think) near the end...
Special and beautiful
Such a cool new sound! Love these guys!

First impression = better than Coldplay; nice guitar pickin' going on with this one.

I initially rated it a 7, but it really bumped up at the end.  Lovely instrumentals.
...very nice...
SOMEone added this. Thanks! Crazy about this band. Saw/heard them on KCRW's MBE. Very unique, perfectly RP. 
Keeps getting better.
