hoganloaf Usually tastes and memories from the past have a rose colored tint to them, but somehow this split shatters those shades and makes it better. I hope they never quit refining this sound. Favorite track: bloodstainedeyes.

XxNeurotikSlothxX One moment I'm clicking the play button. The next I'm being rocketed back to a simpler time where black and hot pink were king and Friday nights meant eating pavement as we tried to nail that skate trick on the youth group's rail in skinny jeans.

The memories came flooding back and for a time, since a long time, it felt like home again.
This split is a milestone in melodic post-hardcore and forever ingrained into my being.

Thank you SYSC and IIDF for collaborating on this masterpiece. 10/10 Favorite track: bloodstainedeyes.

theboywiththedinosaurtattoo This split is going down in history for sure. Favorite track: Modernizing The Myth Of Sisyphus.

1.	SeeYouSpaceCowboy - Painting A Clear Picture From A Unreliable Narrator 03:20	lyrics	buy track
with every stitch you sew the pain. you wanna tell the story tell it right. bleeding for the background. your jaded memoir tapestry. so submerged It's not a lost cause... (I don't want to drown in the plot…) if there never was a point at all. dawn your armor you’re still war. there's still no peace you can’t repent. and so the silence begins to fade away. our shallow breath no longer paints the space. don’t say it again. our lives are enchained. Breaking the frame the picture’s escaping I don’t feel a thing. burn me with all your memories. I was left inside the loss. I must confess this took a turn who are we talking… about? the plot is thrashing me around. won’t someone please end the story? swearing by a needle and a thread. our desperate patchwork. we say we’re healing this is our masterpiece. it's me and you it's you and I just. standing there so let's take aim pull the trigger. all stories must end. Breaking the frame the picture’s escaping I don’t feel a thing. Burn me with all your memories. Swallowing force-fed lies like broken glass. Your bleeding eyes stare right back. I swear I’ll never be the same I’m fading away. no, I can’t rest conversations with myself. so sew my lips shut tight only violence from my voice. So shut your fucking mouth.

self-serving relapse risk over reward. angel in the thornbush she don't want a setback. no solace in your life. it's a razor in your hand goddamn. blood-soaked fortitude. your fading with substance and inside a grandiose myth. insist the solace won't kill you it's sobering. and so it seems we’re moving so far away. from thoughts of redemption and choking on words that just fall apart... so replace the blood in your veins. we’ve run dry of this poison. fuck. favor no solution aim for the same conclusion. jealous of the dead all for a poetic end. I don't need a reason I don't want to hear it. just shut your eyes. lay down with the recourse bleeding out is my choice. I don't need a reason I don't want to hear it. strutting down the razors edge don't lose your balance.

I’ll be the clouds I’ll be the rain that's never-ending. blood on your tongue state your claim I’m impressed. say exactly what you already said but I can tell the difference. I hope you’re waiting for me to come home. (steal my life) I hope you know that I clipped my wings on my own. (partners in demise). cause it’s so hard to survive. when we love like a dying rose. we’re too far gone to revive when we're drowning in a shallow grave. self sacrifice our scars are not enough. say we’ll mend the recourse. and find ourselves somewhere amongst the clouds. were forced to dance were still not set free... were built by agony the warmest pain. on wings of treachery so fly away... if all we are is a shattered dream on broken wings. well just fall apart again. a sure disaster forever after with no remedy. choking on our medicine. if your bloodstained eyes once pale blue now lose sight. hey, darling take the veil off. the facade comes crashing down. savor the pain (i love it) were running razors through our brains (so we say) outstanding devotion (chained down) hey babe this is not okay. suffocating suffocating on every word we say. bleach the pages of this chapter. well we say we’re still happy I can't believe our skin won't tear and set us free... and your eyes pierce just like a dagger I can’t help but stagger right into our grave…. if all we are is a shattered dream on broken wings we'll just fall apart again. a sure disaster forever after with no remedy. choking on our medicine. shatter me take the breath of life straight out my chest. I cant believe this is where we are again. Never end so say it break the skin rescue me. All the pain is a payment for this. this game we play this game we play. the pistols in rotation you wanna kiss and blame?
4.	If I Die First - Mirror, Mirror This Is Nothing Like You Promised 02:21	lyrics	buy track
No chance finding a safe place This feels like living a nightmare No chance no chance We’re not going anywhere We’re not going anywhere If I die then I’ll die with a knife in my chest I’ve lost myself alone in twilight I’m down without a fight left don’t tell me what it takes to survive I can’t even face my demons in the mirror, mirror shatter me into pieces let me bleed It took a part of me Cut from the inside My existence Is a nightmare I feel it’s cold dead hands Reach for my neck Like a noose in the night Make the gallows my bed
5.	If I Die First - My Nightmares Would Do Numbers As Horror Movies 03:14	lyrics	buy track
all in a second the tables turned whose laughing now? (id do it all again, do it all again) all in a second a bridge is burned now it all comes crashing down is this what you meant when you said we'd last forever? is this what you meant when you said that we could make it out alive This will never be the same and I can’t take the blame for u Seven pills and cigarettes just bring nightmares But I wish I could ur place and if I could I would take the pain and hold u in my poison arms all in a second the tables turned whose laughing now? (id do it all again, do it all again) all in a second a bridge is burned now it all comes crashing down is this what you meant when you said we'd last forever? is this what you meant when you said that we could make it out alive a silhouettes all that's left of a flame that flickers out shadows dance around my head with their hands around my mouth all in a second the tables turned whose laughing now? (id do it all again, do it all again) all in a second a bridge is burned now it all comes crashing down is this what you meant when you said we'd last forever? is this what you meant when you said that we could make it out alive

The Romance Of Affliction

supported by 59 fans who also own “A Sure Disaster”

The guitar tones, melodic progessions, lyricism, breakdowns, drums, atmosphere and dirty vox are what stand out the most on this album for me. Reminds me back when I was waiting for preorders to come out and they blew me away. The Romance of Affliction is a careful and beauteous work of skill, creativity and passion. Noah Reed
