about

The hospital ward where Pete works sometimes.
Inspired us to donate the proceeds of this album to rural mental health services. This track encapsulates the entire journey of the album... the dark electric guitar solo was a single improv... then a final resolution at the return of the theme on 12 string guitar. Fragments pieced back together.

lyrics

Ward D



Not in a fit state
Hey mum…

Ha ha ha!


..evacuate now
evacuate as directed..

aargh!

Help!
Dumdum dum dum da dum.


Hail Mary full of Grace
Blessed art thou among women
Please get me out of here
Please please please please get me out.



Fragments pieced back together,
tender with truth.

I’ve been peering out at you for years,
hoping you will finally take me in.
