Cowboykicks
Above the Fjord
This song is about the feeling of total freedom and floating away from the real world. It describes leaving behind heavy thoughts and stress to rise high above the ground, eventually dissolving into a peaceful, "emerald haze" where nothing is holding you back.

Lyrics
Verse 1
A pale glow climbing up the window frame
Writing stories without using a name
The ceiling stretches into open space
While every memory leaves without a trace
No heavy anchor, no iron chain
Just the cooling rhythm of a steady rain
Chorus
High above the canyon floor
Where the wind don't knock no more
Lifted by a hollow sound
Never touching solid ground
Rising through the emerald haze
In a long and steady daze
Verse 2
Petals wandering on a path of glass
Watching every ticking second pass
The horizon is a ribbon made of silk
In a sea of honey and of clover milk
Nothing is solid, nothing is tethered down
Far from the metal and the noise of town
Chorus
High above the canyon floor
Where the wind don't knock no more
Lifted by a hollow sound
Never touching solid ground
Rising through the emerald haze
In a long and steady daze
Bridge
Suspended in a hollow made of oak
Dissolving like a puff of purple smoke
The current carries every tired thought
To a place where nothing needs to be caught
Outro
Losing every shore...
Higher than before...
Just the pulse...
Expanding...............
