Tell me who in the hell is it you think you are?
To think that time alone could heal their scars.
With every step that you take,
blood stains your hands and now, another war is being waged.
And there will come a time, when you're six feet in the ground
And nobody's gonna be around.
After all your bridges are burned, and love has slipped away
Well now, ain't that just the way.
How long is it you think we'll last?
Safe beneath the veil of our bomb blasts.
I can't go on living like this...
greeting their open arms with a clenched fist.
You'll call me what you want, yeah that's fine by me,
and you can go on praising that flag my friend, but I praise humanity.
And there will come a time, when we're six feet in the ground
and nobody's gonna be around.
After all our bridges are burned, and love has slipped away
Well now, ain't that just the way...
Welcome to the end of days.
(Breakdown)
1,2,3,4 - Welcome (gang vocals)
'cause there will come a time, when we're six feet in the ground and nobody's gonna be around

Waves pound on my shores
harder than ever before
I've capsized, and I'm lost to the seas
drink it down, love, forget about me
Steady as I go
to the mountains of madness
there I'll wait for you
will you ever come?
Feels like my skin is closing in
father's words are no longer true
right and wrong, so obscure
I lived in love, I can't be so sure
Steady as we go
to the mountains of madness
here i'll wait for you
but you'll never come.
So you think I've lost my mind
falling further behind
heed what I say now.
Forget all that you think you know
a gift to you I bestow
do with it what you will now

To you with ears to hear, gather close my friend and listen in.
For what you are about to witness is but penance for their sins.
With this bitter hatred inside of me, I'm casting out all love.
And/Injustice will reign down from our good God above.
And he'll say now...
You will know my name... (3x)
Before it's all said and done.
Well I am the way, the truth and I usher in the light
and with a firm foot set on this ground, we're not leaving without a fight.
Take up your arms and prepare for the war to ends all wars.
You'll spare not a single soul, they are liars, cheaters, and whores.
And with the fall of the son
Thy will be done
Thy kingdom come
It all fades away...
It's time.

Story Told

Don't go, only half of our story has been told.
I cannot look back no, this isn't the end
But time won't heal our wounds again.
And so I write a song, sunshine on a cloudy day
I'm picking up the broken pieces, to hide them away
My prodigal princess, I can't wait for you to come home
I'm sick and numb from flesh to bone and I'm tired of being alone
Long lives this bitter haze
apart from where your heart is, it's my sacred space
I'm yearning for your warmth now calloused and cold,
and I'm a trainwreck bound disaster and I'm losing my hold.
I'm tired of writing songs, it's so useless anyways
I'm picking up the broken pieces, I can't seem to find my place
Why should I have to wait on you, to tell me all is whole
I'm sick and numb from flesh to bone, and I'm tired of being alone.
Welcome home.

All This I Do For Glory
by Colin Stetson
His work needs no explanation or justification. Listen to it and let go. P.S. His entire discography is worth forming a listening ritual for.
go to album
This EP covers such a wide spectrum of emotion and texture. I'm a sucker for the saxophone, in general, but the phrasing and composition highlight the best of all three bandmates. Beautiful stuff.

2X1=4
by F.S. Blumm & Nils Frahm
The collaborative fruits of Frahm and Blumm never disappoint. This record is so sonically pleasing and feels fresh and new even after the nth playthrough. A vibe! --to say the least.
