You wouldn't recognize me anymore
Hiding in reclusive skin
You wouldn't recognize me anymore
Letting my agony win
Seek no love
You've emptied your heart out
For the last time
Seek no love
Beware the hold of the tormentor
I once lived for you
Such a horrible mistake
& when you cut me down,
I turned into a spiteful snake
Tell me now, Tell me now
If I'm wasting my time
Tell me now, Tell me now
If I'm wasting my time
When I think of you
When I think of you
Seek no love
You've emptied your heart out
For the last time
Seek no love
Beware the hold of the tormentor
When I think of you
When I think of you
When I think of you
When I think of you, I'm wasting my time
Don't follow me
I'm so lost & anguished
I held your hand
Right until you vanished
I can't escape it
I can't erase it
Seek no love
You've emptied your heart out
For the last time
Seek no love
Beware the hold of the tormentor
When I think of you
When I think of you
When I think of you
When I think of you, I'm wasting my time

Skyfall

Watch the sky fall in slow motion
Keep your eyes ahead, don't look down
It's hard to say what's haunting me
I can't tell what's real
You buried me six feet beneath
The ground you walk on
It's getting harder for me
Sun's going down, and it's harder to breathe
Since I was young I've wanted
To see with eyes unclouded
Since I was young I've wanted out
Get out of my mind
So I can finally sleep
Get out of my mind

How are you holding up?
Now that you're living in the hills
It's been hard to sleep without the help of pills
How am I holding up?
lately the nights have been so still
I'm drowning in the time that I was meant to kill
I wanted to follow you
I wanted to feel at home
I wanted to follow you
I wanted to feel at home again
It feels like you don't know me
Like maybe you never even did
It feels like I don't know you
Like maybe I never even did
I'll never be the same kid
That lived on Sea Mist Lane
But always be the same kid
That brought you so much pain
I wanted to follow you
I wanted to feel at home
I wanted to follow you
I wanted to feel at home again
Make it go away
I don't want to stay here

I have always been
Standing on the outside, looking in
I regret every time that I ever let you in
I'm bending out of shape again
I'll bend until I break again
You know was well as I do..
You know this much is true
I guess I shouldn't take it personally
I try my best to not let it get to me
But I'm not strong enough
I remember when
I was sure that I had seen the end
Until I was forced to face myself all over again
So I created a world to which I could escape
From the sound of your voice
From that look on your face
I banished you from my heart
I banished you from my soul
But you won't go..
I guess I shouldn't take it personally
I try my best to not let it get to me
But I'm not strong enough sometimes
So I created a world to which I could escape
From the sound of your voice
From that look on your face
I banished you from my heart
I banished you from my soul
But you won't go..
I guess I shouldn't take it personally
I try my best to not let it get to me
But I'm not strong enough

Stay

You were dying in my dream
Last night, I watched the light leave your eyes
You took a part of me
You took a part of me with you
& I still see you in my sleep
At night, when the sun leaves the sky
& you stand underneath a willow tree
and fashion my noose so perfectly
Can you stay?
& I'll let you bury me
I wish I could be honest with myself
Always wishing I could be someone else
I wish I could be honest with myself
Can you stay?
& I'll let you bury me

It was hard to turn my back
When our strings detached
The weight of myfailure
Was crushing down my back
Always looking down
(Afraid to burn up)
Trying not to drown
I can't disconnect from this strain
It feels like this is the end
End
Everything I said, I wish I could take it back
I wish I could take it back
It's draining, just to wake
There's a place in my heart
That you still take
Your voice is the sound
Following me down
I can't disconnect from this pain
It feels like this is the end
End
Everything I said, I wish I could take it back
I wish I could take it back
but now it's done
now it's done
I can't take...
I can't take it back
I can't take it back
All along, I was inadequate
All along, I was inadequate
I was inadequate
No...
It feels like this is the end
End
Everything I said, I wish I could take it back
I wish I could take it back

we're all fighting to be strong
we all want just to belong
In this faceless crowd
the silence is so loud
we all doubt that we can fall
we could never be more wrong
in this lifeless game
we are players all the same
It's so easy to feel lonely
When everyone's in love
It's so easy to feel numb
Like you're the only one
lost inside a forward free fall
that was when I lost it all
I'll say honestly, I'm scared of honesty
I can't trust anything I feel
I don't want to resent you
And my heart bleeds regret
Wish I could turn back time
Back to the night we met
I'd do it all again
I'd do it all again
I'd take back everything I said
It's so easy to feel lonely
When everyone's in love
It's so easy to feel numb
Like you're the only one

Have you ever tried so hard
to detach yourself from a situation?
Have you ever lost your patience?
You spilled your heart, just like you spilled your liquor
You drink regret, until it fills your liver
You wear that blank stare
like you've known it all your life
I can guide you
You've lost your way
I can guide you
You've lost your way
but I can't love you back to life
I can't love you back to life
I can't love you back to life
Perpetual night
Perpetual night
M A K E I T S T O P
I can guide you
You've lost your way
I can guide you
You've lost your way
but I can't love you back to life
I can't love you back to life
I can't love you back to life

GLOOMCHILD recommends:
We feel that Spiritbox is pushing the boundaries of heavy music as a whole, and this album is a perfect example of a band putting as much thought as possible into a record.

Underoath is another one of our favorite bands of all time, and their new record further solidifies their place as heavy-hitters in the metal/rock genre.
