lyrics

I’ve been thinking again
Thinking again of all things I really want to be
I’ve been set in stone for so long
So long it’s hard to remember what change feels like

Why is it that
Why is it that when I’m ignorant I have much more fun?
Maybe I can alter it and conquer this feeling
This feeling of Habitual passiveness

Holed up!
No!
Am I ever gonna make it
Home?
Because in reality it’s not gonna fly
When you’re 55 and still don’t know why
I’ve been thinking again
Thinking again of all things I thought that I would be
I’ve been trapped in stone for so long
So long it’s hard to remember what change feels like

Please don’t let me go
I’ll show you that I can
But I’ll need your helping hand

Because I’m holed up
No!
Am I ever gonna make it
Home!
Because in reality it’s not gonna fly
When you’re 55 and don’t even try

A thorough repudiation of any claim that metal music is uniformly angry / negative. Bombastic synth prog with death growls, riffs, and clean flourishes. This record always makes me smile. bloodbrulee
