lyrics

Hold my eyelids open and secure my hanging head, digging shards of bone from both our feet. Removing teeth to free what’s left of sentences unsaid, ensuring my last breath echoes relief. We ignore the sound of two dissolving souls as our home disintegrates into a grave. Rebuilt above burnt earth to be sure nothing else can grow. You left as I was dreaming, but when I opened my eyes you swore you were still here. Preserving footprints in the colour of our blood and as our veins ran dry you swore you were still here. Suffocate me in my sleep. The weight of my belief will bury me. I felt your presence fleeing long before you took your leave. You swore you were still here. Leaving small incisions in the hands that used to hold me, and as our veins ran dry you swore you were still here.

The drum part/build up makes a little bit of jizz come out of me every time I listen to it, so I'm only allowed to listen to it twice a day or else the missus gets suspicious. Aramis Pit

Time Will Die And Love Will Bury It
by Rolo Tomassi

The most emotionally packed album I’ve ever listened to. Beauty and chaos are one in every track; my favorite one changes every time I listen to this masterpiece. This entire band is so incredibly talented that in the last 2 years since I’ve found them, they soared up to be my favorite artists of all time. Can’t get enough of this and everything before it. Here’s to everything after! spookydin

I'm going to be brutally honest. I didn't like Protest the Hero before this record. Now I like Protest the Hero. Make of that what you will. trainh13
