lyrics

I've been holding off on reason in favor of guilt
It is too easy to lean back on old dust while planning future feats
My walls are glaring at me now

Bone white with a hint of disgust

The only drapery both in and outside of my head:
Sound, dirt, old air, mold, sleep, and light

Alas, it might be time to make a shift of companionship

Show me out to the streets
Meet my face at every crease

I'd like to listen to all of your morose
And pluck the seams off for relief

I know how walls crumples the mind
But also how in the folds, there are answers to find

I chose to be self-aware
But despised to act honestly

My deeds for tomorrow
Are my needs for today

This is how I apologize for my absence
I'll be a foot closer to your hearts by now
This is how I apologize for my absence
I'll be a foot closer to your hearts by now

Intense from start to finish, there's a lot of 'blink-and-youll-miss-it' moments throughout the album of standout riffs. Brett (Lascaille's Shroud / Soulmass)
