lyrics

Cold distinctions derailed in the distance.
You constrict and corrupt this fragile balance.
Speak swift, speak stagnant.
Silence our connections in detached glances.

Your breath brought me life.
I keep the ground at my feet against a sky's binding.

A promised Icarus, you bore me gifts belied -
Broken wings batter down what hope's left inside.
We won't fly away from this.

Paint these lucid dreams: a portrait enveloped by disparity...
Speak strong, whisper still.

Keep your faith in the descent.
No more wishing for the stars.
No more wishing we're not what we are.

Stay steadfast, you are my anchor,
Drowning slowly in this pool of madness.
Your eyes nail me to myself like a fallen savior.
Fleeting glimpses of comfort sinking…

Invalid dichotomies hammer in the final nails.
Restrained, draining cerebral progression,
I'm left here to drown in my own blood and
Risen by the light of all, firm and steadfast.

I can't believe this is real, and alas it's not, the past is always different in dreams.

Been listening to this since 2013. Eventually tried to track down a CD but now I'm starting to go digital. So, has 7 years of listening to this EP dulled the experience? Not even slightly. Amazing work. From Nathan's ghost beats on the snare, polyrhythmic measures and insane kick pedal work, Eric's unique tone on vocals and both Aaron and Josh's melodies and interesting structures. Just hope they get the chance to tour England soon. JAY DYER

I made love with my girlfriend so many times on this album. It is incredible. The songs are so beautiful and the rythm so well coordinated for this kind of moment... Anyway, always good to listen to it in the bus too Faugus
