Ritual Lament

by Vanguard Party

This story starts at the end...

Each song represents a different part of our lives: from questioning the status quo, to celebrating the possibilities of life, to mourning the ineviability of death.

Comment to help us decide which lyrics should be shirts. We've been talking about how to share the message of our music in deeper more interactive ways. It would make our shirts cost more but I feel like it would be awesome to have a shirt for every song?! ---------- This lyric is from "Feel it" on our Cycles In The Sky EP
