maintain a distance
how can i hope to love
when you've only shown me
your pain
given me this wound
now what?
denial? depression with a deep rage?
here. it. comes again
no! retreat until it's done
scream! though no one ever hears
endure, endure
try to be strong but still i
flinch
what do you want me to say?
stay silent or give a response then
watch out! keep an eye on the hand
can't trust
don't care
still i know one thing:
it's me
that can make you break, oh
no! retreat until it's done
scream! though you never care
endure, endure
try to be strong but still, but still
endure, endure
i try, but still
the only touch that comes
the only hand that reaches out
is the one that causes pain
the excuse you give may speak of "love"
but the words that kill are what's been left unsaid
Streamlining their post-metal sprawl through a sharper melodic focus, the Scottish juggernauts' third LP is labyrinthine yet approachable. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 25, 2024
