O sunbeat yarns,

Overall, Brossier is a haunting and emotionally charged song that captures the pain of losing someone and the enduring power of memory.


Line by Line Meaning

Pardon me, I'm choked he's gone away.
Excuse my emotions, I am overwhelmed by his departure.


O sunbeat yarns,
Oh, the weathered tales of the past,


Warp and crack as the physician's hand
Distort and fracture like a hand of a doctor working on delicate red fabric.
