  • Footage by the amazing, Marilla Kay ( / marilla.kay ) - "Sorrow" is from the Sleeping At Last album, "Atlas: Emotions" - get it here: open.spotify.com/album/0lyiU9...
    What's a "Micro Music Video"? A tiny, simple and hypnotizing video accompaniment to my songs. Rather than seeing a static image, I loved the idea of having a visual to get lost in while listening.
    Lyrics:
    It feels like falling.
    It feels like rain.
    Like losing my balance
    Again and again.
    It once was so easy;
    Breathe in. Breathe out.
    But at the foot of this mountain,
    I only see clouds.
    I feel out of focus,
    Or at least indisposed
    As this strange weather pattern
    Inside me takes hold.
    Each brave step forward,
    I take three steps behind
    It's mind over matter -
    Matter over mind.
    Slowly,
    Then all at once.
    A single loose thread
    And it all comes undone.
    Where there is light,
    A shadow appears.
    The cause and effect
    When life interferes.
    The same rule applies
    To goodness and grief;
    For in our great sorrow,
    We learn what joy means.
    I don’t want to fight,
    I don’t want to fight it.
    But I will learn to fight,
    I will learn fight
    ’Til this pendulum finds equilibrium.
    Slowly,
    Then all at once.
    The dark clouds depart,
    And the damage is done.
    So pardon the dust
    While this all settles in.
    With a broken heart,
    Transformation begins.

    Your songs give me such pure, unfiltered catharsis. I've cried nearly every time I've listened to this one in particular, and each time, I find a kind of joyful abandon in the sweeping emotions in the lyrics. Sorrow comes to us so slowly, so softly, and then all at once, and it leaves us breathless. What an experience.

    My first experience with this artist it was through a warriors amv and the song was Saturn I liked it so I looked at some of the other songs and I was overwhelmed with the beauty of all of these songs and I’d hardly call them just songs they are works of art pieces of poetry but with a tune I do not think there as been a song that hasn’t made me rethink regroup and calm down from all my stress the fact that so many people feel a simmilar way is amazing.

    Incredible song that was with me after the death of my young brother, from opioids and addiction. I'm not embarrassed to say that I wept many times to the words of this amazing inspired song. And like everyone else posting on this thread, there are several lines that really resonate with me. If I could give one example: the line where he says "Slowly, then all at once
    A single loose thread
    And it all comes undone."
    This reminds me of the earlier stages in my grieving when I was at work or with friends and I'd be feeling good and then someone would inadvertantly say a trigger word or phrase and it would make me think of my brother and I'd leave the room to go cry somewhere in private. Those were some pretty rough times.

      RIGHT! I think their tears from listening to this beautiful masterpiece made them accidentally hit the dislike instead of the like

    Sorrow
    Se siente como caer.
    Se siente como lluvia.
    Como perder mi equilibrio
    Una y otra vez.
    Una vez fue tan fácil
    Ihnala, exhala.
    Pero al pie de esta montaña
    Solo veo nubes.
    Me siento fuera de foco
    O al menos indispuesto
    Mientras este extraño patrón de tiempo
    Dentro de mí toma posesión.
    Cada valiente paso adelante
    Tomo tres pasos atrás.
    Es mente sobre materia -
    Materia sobre mente.
    Lentamente, luego todo de repente.
    Un solo hilo suelto
    Y todo se deshace.
    Donde hay luz
    Aparece una sombra.
    La causa y efecto
    Cuando la vida interfiere.
    La misma regla aplica
    A la bondad y al dolor
    Pues en nuestro gran dolor
    Aprendemos lo que significa alegría.
    No quiero pelear, no quiero pelearlo.
    No quiero pelear, no quiero pelearlo.
    No quiero pelear, no quiero pelearlo.
    Pero aprenderé a pelear, aprenderé a pelear
    Hasta que este péndulo encuentre equilibrio.
    Lentamente, luego todo de repente.
    Las nubes oscuras se apartan.
    Y el daño hecho está.
    Así que perdón por el polvo
    Mientras todo esto se instala.
    Con un corazón roto
    Comienza la transformación.

    Stunning music video :) I have to say that Sorrow is one of my all time favorites of yours. I can really relate to every line of it, and truly feel your own sorrow come through. Just as much a masterpiece as all your other songs. Absolutely breathtaking! Looking forward to what you may come with in the future
