That intro is one of, if not the most beautiful musical arrangements I've ever heard on here for a bluegrass edged folk song.
I like the lyrics too but the phrase "an iron gate I feign" struck me as overly poetic in context with the rest of the street talk lyrics.
Didn't hear any siblance problems, but agree with ROG that the vox might be a just wee bit dark.
Noel makes a good point about walking away from the mix. My ears also get super sensitive to treble and "sss" after mixing for a while. I thought it was just me because of medicine I have to take.

Enjoyed listening.
