lyrics

It was years ago
They would wake me up
And in the temple stand
To sing songs he loved
It fell short of convincing
After a couple of years
When mother stopped going
And father never dared

But I still have those thoughts
Despite how much I try

Despite how much I get clean
I can't shake the ghost
That something is there
That sees value in soul
And who's love spreads to hatred
In misconstrued prose
Or never existed
No one really knows

It's a hell of a ride
Unsure where you'll go
Maybe stay in the middle
The worst fate of all

Starting to come undone
The places I've been running from
Hoping to feel brand new
Deafening silence that separates you from me
Now I begin to see the sun shining

But what does it matter to me?
It matters to me

I don't want to go
The light's too bright
Or too dim, I don't know
I just want to stay home
If I give up a piece
Is it worth the fight?
I don't want to go to Hell
But I think that I might

The album opens with the soft, almost hymnal chords from a piano, building at times to melodic cacophony (complimentary) before settling back down in it's final track. The vivid lyricism and powerful vocals throughout are incredible. Well worth picking up!! Sav
