    Lyrics:
    I flew beyond the sun before it was time
    Burning all the gold that held me inside my shell
    Waiting for you to pull me back in
    I almost had the world in my sight
    Lost love,bright eyes fading
    Faster than stars falling
    How can I tell you that I've failed?
    Tell you I failed
    Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
    Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
    Now I'm lost in oblivion
    I tried to burrow a hole into the ground
    Breaking all the fingers and the nails from my hands
    The eyes of a child see no wrong
    Ignorant bliss, impending doom
    Lost love, bright eyes fading
    Faster than stars falling
    How can I tell you that I've failed?
    Tell you I failed
    Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
    Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
    Now I'm lost
    Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
    Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
    Now I'm lost in oblivion
    Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
    Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
    Now I'm lost
    Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
    Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
    Now I'm lost in oblivion
    In oblivion
    In oblivion

    Brann, the drummer, had a big impact on the Crack the Skye album since the whole idea really revolved around the suicide of his 11 year old sister. I considered this their more emotionally attuned album. Some song meanings vary but it's all about Brann's sister essentially. Very sad, very powerful. Get chills every time listening to this album

    This entire album helped me cope with my great grandmas passing. She was the rock of the entire family for all of those generations and it kind of fell apart after she departed. I was already listening to this album at the time when I first discovered it but she passed shortly after. The concepts on this entire album are amazing. Stuck with me ever since and very formative to my younger existence.

    Honestly, I could never get into these guys, it took me 16 years to realize what theyre doing. Most songs since the beginning of time are about love, politics, orother happenings; now mastodon comes along and uses music to tell stories, about random myths and legends (and sometime real stories). It's refreshing.
    Long live the mighty MASTODON.

    Ohmygod you're going to be in Grand Rapids?! I moved here in 2003 and was living here (still live here) when I met my husband, a beautiful, golden human being and metalhead who bore resemblance to Brann. (Aric always, also, wished to play drums. Instead he played a bit of bass.) He introduced me to so much amazing music including Mastedon. This was one of his favorite songs. Ours is a soul-based love that has endured the six years since his death, and will sustain me my life long. When I want to be closer to Aric, I can hug his pillow, wear his hoodie, or boot up one of his beloved metal tracks. Like this one. Thank you.
