What does it matter?
All that I am
and all that I feel
Means nothing
Love once entwined
Violently ripped apart
Now I'm just dead
Skin and blood

What does it matter?
All that I am
and all that I feel
Means nothing
Love once entwined
Violently ripped apart
Now I'm just dead
Skin and blood
and I can't even say
There's a hole in my body
You've been torn from my love
What do they say?
What do I care?
Their pretty compassion
Means nothing
Your life was my life
Your breath was my breath
Without sound
Without lips
I hear your voice you sing
There's a hole in your body
I've been torn from your love
There's a hole in our body
Come to me my beautiful

A Brief Appraisal of “The Earthbound Lover”
In this somber air, grief is rendered with exquisite restraint. A steady, the bass along with the folk style percussion moves the piece giving it a medeval quality, while spectral synthesizers drift through a folk-acoustic arrangement as delicate as faded lace. Each note is a sigh, each chord a memory—refined in craft, yet raw in sentiment.
Though mournful in theme, the piece captivates with its spectral beauty and technical grace. It is not merely a song, but a lament that lingers like mist upon the moor.
