What I am
is a dark cavity
where a lightning storm
is raging brilliantly
What I am
is a forest deep
where lovers meet
hot and cold combining
It takes shape
as a tidal wave
on a peaceful shore
a floating mass surviving
It takes shape
in the roots of love
It takes shape
na-na-ya-na-na
It takes shape
in the roots of love
It takes shape
Destiny
What I am to be
How the story peaks
a pinnacle of comedy, tragedy
It takes shape
in the roots of love
It takes shape
na-na-ya-na-na
It takes shape
in the roots of love
It takes shape
It takes shape
in the roots of love
It takes shape
in the roots of love
in the roots of love

In this album, Emily pushes the boundaries of folk music, by weaving in different instruments and synths, to a great result. The highlight of the album is easily the irrevocable masterpiece 'World Traveller' Alex Marshall

My heart melts for 'Back to the Woods', and I would have ended up buying the CD even if it was just that song on it's own. Throughout the whole album, the melodies are incredibly smooth and textured, while the background instruments intimately fuse with the autoharp in the best possible way. Alex Marshall

Beautiful and original showcase of the Rashomon Effect through music. The emotional depth and musical range Hannah displays is truly incredible. Easily in my top 5 albums of 2016. Thank you Hannah for this beautiful record. T.J. Dwyer
