lyrics

she cringes and her nerves crawl to the surface of her skin.
with the sound of a click on the latch of a door she can feel
the heavy burden she will be struck down with by a wretched
ruined man.

stuck in a menacing cycle of abuse
fractured boned and bloody nosed from the hands of
a wretched ruined man.

she still loves him.

she tries to block the cutting words and the
rage filled closed fists flying towards her face. living life as
a slit wrist, bleeding out slowly waiting for a savior
to take her from this place.

stuck in a menacing cycle of abuse
fractured boned and bloody nosed from the hands of
a wretched ruined man.

she still loves him.
she can't stay with him.
she's floored by a revelation.
she doesn't need him.

so she walks away.

I don't mean to be a "first albums only" elitist or anything of the sort since I didn't even discover these guys til maybe a year and change ago, but truth be told- the demo tracks are my favorites despite Deafheaven's undeniable growth and evolution into a broader sort of awesome. satangutsandchristcorpsepaint
