”This vicious circle of being in love with misery. Feeling sick about everything around me, I wrote this song in a time when I thought this one person was irreplaceable and essential. Eventhough I know better by now I got to know what real regret feels like.“
lyrics
These grey morning lights make me feel like home
I’m still lying here forgotten and alone
And these cold winds sing their songs of hope in the summits of these trees
And all the rotten leaves make me feel like I am part of a big desease
A desease that goes like the seasons - that follows natural laws
Winters are hard to get through and sometimes even summers can’t heal the cause. The cause.
And you left like these leaves
you left our love on the ground
To rot and fall to dust - to die without a sound
And as life has left our love
and we both lost a heart
these roots of this tree
will bring us back to the start
back to the start
this love had to end
to keep the winters cold
and to make summer a myth that never grows old
Now you can carry the weight of a heart that should be gone.
On their debut record, the London hardcore upstarts cross-up mosh-ready fare with melancholic ambient passages, weeping guitars, and virtuosic vocal harmonies, but its romantic veneer is much more complicated than it seems. Bandcamp Album of the Day Jan 30, 2019
