for years complacent - a past life filled with lies
i’m only left with shreds of time
one will to decide, with nothing to lose and everything to find
and we said can this be all for nothing
one chance to miss our ride
if you would drown the sight and lead the sea into falling skies
this time, cold and blind
if only to be aware of this turning tide
this new light will burn all your pain
feed those flames until dust
one step from the grave with no replacement for trust
fall back into place, avoid this face at all cost
crawl our separate ways, destroy the weak and the lost
this new light has burned all your pain
and fanned those flames until dust
saved by every process
i put my love aside, caught in the cold
for this fate never even tried
our time is out
the story grows old now
This album is still one of my favorites. What Johnny and Evan did here, I don't know if it could ever happen again. There is heart in this album, something actually kind of rare nowadays I think. The beating rhythms and fun riffs meet ethereal vocals and leads that actually impact me emotionally which is, in my opinion, the superlative measure of any work of art. brineryte
