"Across Red Lines" is featured in the Faust Studio Sessions and Other Recordings 10", out on Klangbad/Sing A Song Fighter November 23, 2017.


Dedicated to all the women, men and children that made the ultimate sacrifice of leaving their home and risking their lives in hope for a better future.

I was born a stranger
in this country's past
Songs and prayers
Across their bare chests

Who am I supposed to please?
What am i supposed to praise?
I was born a stranger
and a stranger I shall pass.

with their sacks across their knees
and the lines across their face
these are born to please
and these are born to hate

These are worth a million
and these are worth a dime
I as born a stranger
and a stranger I will die

I was born a stranger...
