lyrics

Extend your hands, and reach for the surface

We might not make it out of here alive.

Destined, and bound to desolation.

Can you see? The city sleeps in flames.

Watch as the buildings collapse all around.

I've never seen so much misery.

We may fight for our own freedoms

But our fates are all tied.

Condemned to an eternity of hatred and lies

Forever doomed to misunderstanding the unknown,

And let history repeat itself until

Our self-destructive nature leads us to the grave.

Oh my god! I can't believe this is how it ends.

Save us all!

We've been pretending for aeons

That this isn't real,

But how long can you keep this up,

As the sword of Damocles hangs over our heads.

It's written across the pages

Staring at our faces, in black and white.

Oh, it's so surreal when you see it all

Written across the stars

Their brightness is dimming,

Our time is coming.

Maybe it be best if we said our farewells right now.

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

Your music connects on every level, whether it’s physical, emotional or spiritual. Impressive musicianship and song writing. Love how you leave this undefined space for us listeners to draw our own images and blend in our own personal lives when listening. Beacons is one of my favorite albums of all time! olaussem
