Woke up again with my reflection staring back at me.
Woke up again with this affliction torturing me.
In my eyes, in my skin, in my head in my chest: controlling me.
I’m nothing but a puppet, a lifeless shadow of that face you used to know.
I want to escape,
I need to let go,
I have to revive,
I’m fucking paralysed.
I can’t take the pain.
This grey horizon: so bleak, crippling me.
How much will I take before my mind melts?
All grey they stand and stare, I turn grey as well.
Tomorrow I’ll sleep, it's safer to dream,
Without my conscious thoughts to turn me grey.
I'm boundless.
Quite possibly the most full-on album I've ever listened to. Intense, and then some. 'Digital Tarpit' could describe both the track and the whole album: high-pitched guitar squeals that make your fillings itch coupled with merciless, suffocating heaviness. The Avenell-esque vocals top it off perfectly.
Brilliant - punishing, but brilliant. jim_fuego
