I share this cavity with creatures more beast than man
Constantly overwhelmed and confused with no way out
The sun can’t set
What can’t rise can’t fall
Familiar trembling chilling down my spine
I’m too far gone into eternal night
The path in which I flee is filled with roots and thorns
But in this endless dark I have to take the scars
Don’t follow me
Don’t follow me
They’re out
They’re starved
Light devouring creatures of the dark
I’m short of breath
And so tired of running
Does no one else hear the howling
Or feel the teeth at their feet
They say to keep running
But none of them know the panic
Irrational
Consumes me
Oh dear god I can see their eyes
And I can smell their fucking breath
Feels like a curse just to stay alive
Always running, always running from my life
Getting closer and closer everyday
Always stuck between a rock and a hard place
Eyes gleaming from direction
I’m broken, bleeding, and I’m fucking exhausted
Their teeth sinks in, am I finally done?
Begging for death, but it just won’t fucking come
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
