lyrics

The last time I saw you, you could barely speak,
pale faced in a cold sweat, eyes glazed over on Brighton beach.
You said: "its been so long".
It seems to me that the brightest were built to fall and rot away.
Forget about those friends who cared so much
because they're not coming back to pull you out.

You're rotting away, unloved and alone.
Rotting away.
You're so lost within yourself.

So far, you've only made things worse,
and I know what it's like because I've been there before:
forcing smiles in slurred conversation,
as their faces turn so bitter and cold.
They gave up on you. You gave up on yourself.
The brightest light barely glows in the dark.
You used to have everything and now you're all alone.
So far, you've only made things worse.

I'm sorry I missed out on this band 'til now. Landscapes sound excellent, a must for any fan of UKHC in the first decade of the century. I'd put them on a playlist with early Gallows, Alexisonfire, Comeback Kid, Dead Swans, Lay It On The Line, Mercury League and HHH. Burning Flag Designs

Seeing Portrayal of Guilt 11/14 front row absolutely destroy a small club in Baltimore on the Christfucker tour brings new meaning to the concept of tortured emotional dissonance. My head is still spinning of how scary talented these three individuals are. Completely awe-inspiring. bcb723

Ce disque me rappelle les Rage against the machine, fatalement. Mais la musique me plaît davantage, car plus hardcore. Il y a du riff pour des mois. gregory duveau
