Waking up so cold
In this bed I’ve laced with sweat
Dripping in all my “used to be’s”
As I start to reminisce, I start to breathe it in
That nostalgic air
I remember thinking
Those were the days when the rain couldn't fall
I remember the deep blue skies
And not having a fucking care in the world
But I know it’s not real
And I can’t escape this
This air has filled my lungs
And I can’t breathe out
This nostalgic air is so fucking stale
How could I forget?
All the horror and all the regret
Those were never our beautiful days (forgetting, forgetting)
They will always be our darker days (forgetting, forgetting)
We were living through our darker days
Forgetting, forgetting
I generally appreciate the album by album move away from hardcore towards extreme metal. Yet for me personally, this is where the balance is perfect. Kind of like Metallica's Ride the Lightning: subsequent albums were more sophisticated and complex, yet less intense, too. Great to come back to, again and again. jornfin
Another masterpiece! Since I only discovered Rolo Tomassi this year, I have the privilege of working my way through their back catalogue, and this one certainly doesn't disappoint. The closing track "All That Has Gone Before" gets me every time! carrierdown
