And when you went to see them did they put you under? Or were you awake when they pulled out all your insides and made you clear?
Transparent: you’re the ghost of a has-been presence.
Tranquil: you’re so at ease with the demons hiding out your backdoor.
Trusting: you’re so naive with the surgeons knocking on your backdoor.
And I know you hear them knocking, I know you won't let them in.
Tranquil: you’re so at ease with the demons hiding out your backdoor.
Trusting: you’re so naive with the surgeons knocking on your backdoor.
But the surgeons left a hole in your heart and you left your window open, and now you sit with your hands on your legs and you don't see them coming...
And that’s where you’ll stay.
That’s where you’ll be, when the surgeons give you that final surgery.
Now I can see you bleeding out: watch your blood flow down into a hole deep in the ground.
The post-hardcore band’s latest is a reflection on time, memory, death, and grief—and is their dreamiest material to date. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 22, 2019
