The lyrics from ‘Directionless Boat’ come directly out of Kyle’s father’s journal as he describes the grief of losing his wife of 40 years. The imagery describes being in a boat with no anchor or steering, tossed by the currents and winds, and helps define the grieving process. “Directionless Boat” will be available to stream on the eve of the longest night of the year, a time often set aside to grieve and mourn the losses that come with being alive.
