you flipped your rentals, are you happy now?
with teeth pooling out of your mouth
I'll force it open, I'll bet you're laughing now
wish I had more to laugh about
some call it envy, I hope they're not right
cause it shakes me violently at night
now, I wanna know where we get off
I'm just trying to do my job

so foreign to my ears
so familiar with my place
I can tell you this is not the way
so tired of my form
slowly descending gowns
vomiting our skeletons out

high rises come as my humanity goes
a part of me feels responsible
I'm scattered where your father laid the stones
don't make my brothers mop me up
don't make my brothers mop me up, please

so foreign in my ears
so familiar with my place
I can tell you this is not the way
so tired of my form
slowly descending gowns
vomiting our skeletons out

1000

Under the hum of citylights
Where months before I bid my goodnight
And hushed my truth
Heavy snow kissed my pale flushed flesh
You saw through my guise
Before I ever could
Our images blur into sound
Your voice makes me warm
Finding comfort in small gestures
Burdened by this sense of self
The nocturnal everlasting who dreamt of sleep
The clairvoyant who could not speak
And the exhaustion that led to collapse
Finding comfort in small gestures
Burdened by this sense of self
Defined by past mistakes

Exhaustion That Led To Collapse by burial etiquette

Revival Of A Friend

Sour Widows - Cherish

the album is a concept album. It follows the story of our protagonist who finds himself in a constant state of pain. He comes up with the terrible solution of ending his life, however, before he does so he decides to pray. After feeling excitement our main character assumes God will answer his plea and send an angel to take care of him and remove all his woes. When this does not happen, our lead becomes more destitute then ever and lights himself on fire. As he is dying he enters a spirit realm where he meets an angel. In this moment our protagonist clings on for dear life and fortunately makes it. He awakes to a friend crying in this hospital. Turns out our 'hero' wasn't as lonely as he thought. In the distant future, our main character is doing better, still riddled with issues, but resolute in his promise of life.

pain

Staring at the ground
just thinking to myself
I wanna talk to you
but you're looking at someone else

My head is full of smoke
it's getting hard to see
You're so far away
you're so out of reach

I don't know what to say
I don't know what to do
wish I knew how to be
wish I was more like you
you float right through the air
and I can't keep my cool
wish I could run away
wish I was more like you
