lyrics

if the page would bleed anxiety
a steady flow of ink and tragedy
it would be satisfying my need for distance
some halfway sense of belonging to the wicked and vane
if there was ever a reason to adapt
we'd better find it

cross-eyed, but aware of surroundings
and gasping for air
trying to slow a head that's spinning
and the walls will trace the lines of escape
approval of another day spent inside
asking a reflection for support and unnecessary comfort
an exchange of past and present neglect for future thoughts
now hands remain possessive
I'm scared they always will
an apathetic notion for this unsuspecting chill
imagine how exciting to be truly lost for the first time

some suggest we trade ourselves for those whispering voices

when doubts consume the moments
and blemish our time with assumption
it's beneficial to wait it out
or else maybe seem embarrassed, or pathetic
well we're trying to turn it around

can we tread the surface of water
and empathize
take to the beach
start a fire, spend the night
if indifference can inspire
it will chase us throughout our lives
with no shoes and feet worn
can we stand to walk on by

Actually, Extremely

This album scratches an itch I never knew existed. The most fun I have had perusing Bandcamp for new cassettes. Please give a listen if you like kinda emo, kinda indie, kinda prog metal music. Seriously, I feel like it would be hard not to enjoy these songs. tukknutt13
