Crack open my skull Let’s see what tumbles out Split open my veins I’m sure there’s nothing left Rip my lungs out I won’t need ‘em anymore What am I breathing for? Where I’m going, I just don’t know and if I did I’m not sure I’d tell you Onward alone Exquisitely useless Just like a burning star I’m distant and dying Leave the flags at half-mast It’s always a fucking tragedy Caught in the downpour Drenched in misery Inescapable, these mind games, this antipathy Endless struggle Trying to break free On the edge of the precipice One more breath and I’ll be convinced Exhale into the mist and disappear from all of this Ceasing to exist Quietly screaming Searching for meaning Lost and defenseless Desperately restless
I love it. Have to agree with still bummed: this packs an emotional punch but rocks hard. I've played this whole album repeatedly over the last week which is unusual for me. Exhilarating, poignant, intelligent, melodic. Robin Ward
