	Frayed, roped in silk Lying underneath the counterpane So I'm older in my head Giving up to words that shift my blame Loaned, lived like string Can it ever be that I'm in pain Fixed, safe and sound How could I complain about my faults There are films, wry and smart Try to give it love and wring some thought Rich, feel like thieves Can it ever be that we're just plain

"On StaG’s newest single, ‘Lived Like String’, I’m hearing a sunken, Church-like drift suggestive of enormity, hinting at an reserved emptiness which is totally out of reach of the listener. The beat is slow, mechanical and restless but not at the cost of organicity, and a kind of spiritual solitude and richness displaying itself in the follow up to their first full-length album is consistently vast and flowing."

"'Lived Like String', a single that distills all that came before into four minutes of unadulterated pop bliss."
