Strike the match
and set the flame
Under unkempt skin.
Burn out the decaying bridges
Whose paths have been left to rot.
Explore the black triangle that surrounds us
And marvel at the colossal wreck.
Ignore the lines that divide the center
And burn these homes whose foundations are kindling.
Burn the paths laid by patriarchs.
Ignite the wastes to expunge the toxin
And drive it out to the river.
Teach the son to ignore the shadow of man;
Teach the daughter to blaze in glory.
Spark the light that will guide
And burn out the rot that surrounds.

This is one of my favorite records of recent years, and mye absolute favorite of 2013. I wrote this review of it for the music site I have been writing for since 1999 (it's in Norwegian, but I gave it 6 out of 6, as you can see!): http://panorama.no/2014/04/12/bolgende-emosjoner-pa-toppniva/ Frode Fossvold-Jørum
