Gratitude, (for)
03:55
|
|||
|
Could not count all the last times
swore that this was it
So raise your glass to
Those who forget you with their first sip
Came to, this morning
With a spinning in your head
Tried to wash it away but the emptiness stays
This is all that remains of you
A dead man walking
I won't try to fill your shoes
A spirit talking. I will never be like you
Try to justify yourself
I gave up long ago
|

3. |
(is) forgiven.
03:11
|
|||
|
Trapped inside the hours
They seem too slow
Watch the wall as it taunts him;
It's all he knows
It's all gone let go
There's twelve men that say so
This is my last call to the fallen
I have lost all hope
In my redemption, to be forgiven
There is no turning back
He watched the sun as it rose
But now it sets
He was just a kid back then
How could it end like this?
It's all gone, let go
There's twelve men that say so
Could you cast the first stone?
|

Misanthropes
03:20
|
|||
|
So you've come to terms with
What she might say
But you're going anyway
Just to learn what it might be like
Oh, to be right about someone for once
In your life
But nothing feels right words are too light
For what you want to say
So, you're testing her patience
Loneliness could end with a name
But you're getting the words wrong
"Trust no one" is all you say
So you've come to terms with
What she might do
But you're done with the misanthrope
That lies inside you
So throw yourself at the mercy
Of what could not be
(This could not be.)
|
||||
5. |
Control
03:25
|
|||
|
Don't let them take control
It is your own
I remind you
Don't let them take
The scars you earned from the fights
you learned that they are your own
Just what have they done to you
Replace the old, with the new
I damn them all to hell
I might as well
Why do you run from what you were?
Don't trust a voice that sounds so sure
'Cause it only tells you what you want to hear
The past can always be heard
In the echoes of the notes
In the shadows of the words
Don't give in yet
|
||||
6. |
Sirens
03:15
|
|||
|
I'm drawn to the city's lights
I take comfort in her arms
Locked in her hold I feel that I am finally home
But it was in the sound of the sirens
I lost it all
Awoke to a silence
I recall everything now,
everything.
I failed you
I admit I was the one that turned away
Hold the line
I will return some day
In the sound of the sirens
I lost it all
Awoke to a silence
I recall everything now,
everything.
In the heat of the moon she laid on the ground
Asked for my hand, said she heard a sound
It was just the beating of her heart
Slowing down

Slow Down
02:41
|
|||
|
Slow down
Before you drink this bar dry
Words don't work
Honey, learn to say goodbye
Cause there's nothing for me here now
But the memory that just won't disappear
Slow down
I've been racing all my life
So loud
But with you
I could hear for the first time
So tell them, there is nothing for me here now
But a memory that just won't disappear
They say you will find the road that
Leads you to what's right
They say you will find the road that
Leads you to what's right
|

Hollow
04:21
|
|||
|
Take time to think it over
Don't be so quick to choose
I realize you must move forward;
Careful what you do
The taste of regret forming
On the tip of my tongue
All the walls are falling
What have I done?
'Cause this fills the all the space
That I cannot fill myself
Just as it saves the life of the long lost soul
That cannot find an end
I live a life by false pretense
So I play it cool
A simple feigned, false existance
You saw right through
|

Kerosene
02:30
|
|||
|
Simple son
Silver spoon
Born again
Oil tycoon
Like kerosene I watch it burn
In tortured dreams. I have seen.
A coward stands before the crowd
A trembling hand screams outloud,
"this is the blood that's on you now"
Like kerosene, I watch it burn
In tortured dreams. I watch'd you burn
|
||||
11. |
Rush
02:01
|
|||
|
The twenty in her pocket
Was burning a hole right through her leg
I wish I could stop her
But I never knew quite what to say
The doors in this place seem
To shut themselves these days
I let you go
I am to blame
And the rhythms in her head
They never seem to fade
Colored by the streets
She knows so well
And the twenty in her pocket
Is burning a hole right through the ground
I guess we won't be seeing you around anymore
So while you wait for the rush and light
I will wait for you one more night
|

Somber Silt
03:12
|
|||
|
I am of the land
The rolling hills
The somber silt
Which you sew
Into the earth
I will remain with you
Until you see my body
Fade into the valley floor below
A place that I have come to know
With the world spinning down
Look around
I stand with you
You have not lost me
I am the somber silt
In the land you till
Until you see my body
Fade into the valley floor below
A place that I have come to know
I will remain with you
I remain with you
|

(the) Death of the Ghost
03:54
|
|||
|
I ran my hand down the steel
Of the gun my father carried like a cross
You might say I learned my lessons young
After only sixteen years
I will live and die right here
In the place I played as a kid
But it makes no difference now
As I watch his chest explode
It makes no difference now
He was dead to me long ago
In the smell of gasoline
On a summer afternoon
In a town on the bay
Where my grandfather learned to swim
I found my peace in the steel
Of the gun my father carried like a cross
As the blood dripped from his mouth
He said, "It makes no difference now."
No, it makes no difference now
As I watch his chest explode
It makes no difference now
He was dead to me long ago

The Lighthouse Man
05:50
|
|||
|
Oh, how time has aged
This house, this sand, this shore
And my skin
But you are timeless, love
A picture framed
On the table placed
It calms my fear
But you're just a ghost
That haunts me here
I drive the coast most everyday
I search the rocks, the swell
The sea they look the same
For you are timeless, love
I've been lost for years
Consumed with fear
I beg of you;
Return to me
Now I pace the beach
I guard the breaks
And protect the sea
I walk for miles
As I have for years
I'm tired now
I release my fear
I wade into the waves
Let the tide pull me out
Let the currents have their way
A ghost like a dream
Like the tear in the a seam of your eye
As I lose sight of shore
Surrender me to the ocean floor
And I'll see you soon
|

Mary Magdalene
04:14
|
|||
|
Does it suffice to say
That you have lost your way?
In the morning when you find yourself all alone,
Could have sworn you brought him home.
Like Mary Magdelene
Have they got you all wrong?
I said I'm sorry to see.
You can't set yourself free
From the things these people want you to be
And I know
I'm just a no name from the west end of town
You're just a pretty face that likes to go down.
The daylight's fading
What are you waiting for?
|

The Melodramatic
03:48
|
|||
|
It was pictures and politics
A lovely time
What's wrong with it?
I watched myself with you
And saw all the things
I put you through
I felt a change in the weather
I always said
"Never ever rely upon
Solid ground to hold you up
When you are coming down."
Cause I am the burning, broken, cadence
And I'll run you down
Don't turn around
This is my warning
And I will
Learn to never say
Never ever to a girl
That belongs in simple songs
Of right and wrongs
Cause I am the burning, broken, cadence
And I'll run you down
Don't turn around
This is my warning to you
Oh, the rhythm wears me out
The cadence of this burning, broken song
I sing myself
|

La Seine
04:03
|
|||
|
We write the roles we play
So forgive me when I don't believe
Anything you say
So goddamn the weight of the hand that holds you down
Abby, goddamn it's the weight that everyone carries around
But it's nothing to you
I can see
Pride has always had its way with me
Cause I'm lost between
Fear and dreams
The man you want me to be
But I find myself
Returning endlessly-
To walking countless miles around my room
To passing countless afternoons
But it's nothing to you
I can see
As watched you break so easily
And like a river cuts the earth beneath my feet in two
You can't replace the years I lost to you
And like a river cuts the earth beneath my feet in two
You can't erase all those years I lost to you
|

18. |
Windowside
03:54
|
|||
|
Wanted to let it go
But it just won't die
I sit windowside
And forget it all
Life moves far too fast
Into a trap
Set by best intentions
Rip the floor from underneath my feet
Expectations I can't live up to
Problems I can't seem to find a way through
I cannot erase the words on the wall
But I felt their weights
As I watched them fall down on me
And i've tried
Oh how i've tied myself in knots for it
But my last shred of doubt
Hangs on the knife I used to cut it out
|

Picasso
05:59

Days
They have their way with you
Pain
It knows you well
You'd rather kneel than stand
You'd rather run than fight
You'll fade out slow
And I'll burn out bright
Raised. To turn your other cheek
Pray. No one cares at all
Convinced yourself just to give up and let go
Try but the mirror just stares you down
You lived your life and you sold yourself to
Rusting in the rolling wind
And you died your death am I next in line?
I can't be far behind
|
||||
20. |
Bottles
02:54
|
|||
|
I am the rain on your window
And I will lock you in
I am the memory fading
Only to come back again
Only to come back again for you
The bottles of my blood
That you throw on the ground
Don't do much to calm you down
Do they?
So you drink down your pain
And you choke on your past
You don't say much
I guess you'll die this way
I am the rain on your window
And I will lock you in
I am the storm brewing
behind your eyes again
I am the storm

Korea
02:46
|

|
Raised his flag Stars and stripes
Wipes the blood from eyes
Too young to question why, too young to see the lies
Young enough to die
All the king's men are marching to their graves
Saints and sinners the same
All hell broke loose
The sky was stained
He watched them all
Die in vein
Stars and stripes
To wipe his eyes
Stars and stripes
To answer why
On the shoulders of our youth
We carry a nation blind to truth

A friend with a reliably fine musical taste posted this album on FB and I wasn't disappointed. Love the guitar sound and the passionate vocals (melodic enough to not pass as screamo or whatever). Punk rock spirit yet with a lot of dynamics (definitely a yes to the Dischord reference) and compact songs that won't leave your head for a long time. Many many great tunes on here but for the moment USMA and Lay Low have to be my favorites! Great band, very happy to have found them!
