lyrics

A rainy start on a Detroit Wednesday. He took me down by the pier for a stroll. I looked around only to find nothing. This lack of substance is so uninviting. He said when you grow up you'll see this world for what it truly is, tainted by moments of grief. And on the day that I leave this place I expect only to see (The trees moving towards me). Chapter 1, It's getting lonely and I can barely breathe. I am frozen in confusion of how this came to be. Chapter 2, constantly sleeping, vividly dreaming to say the least .I'm not retreating. I'm simply trusting my apathy. (Doctor). Give him back (Time tells lies). Skipping forward to chapter 7 while reminiscing on the grief between. Here, softly grinning, new found composure is I meant to be. But your touch lingers. Leave here you stranger! Or father endangering my heart. Give him back (Time tells lies). We had a good run. No longer holding onto this curse. We had a good run. This is the deception of me, the awareness of death, the misconception of freedom and you're still taking the breath out of me, mistaking smiles for closure, just let me be. This is so far from over. Just let me be.

Parting Ways
by The Sky Above and Earth Below

Try and find a screamo release with cooler guitar work. It's unfair though to just mention Miller's guitar work as all three members have fresh and innovative ideas. Greaver

II: Dawn
by Iselia

An incredibly melodic and emotional progression from their previous material. Our homies did good on this one. Definitely worth a listen. Greaver
