I'm sorry you'll never get to know me as a man
I swear I'm better now, you'd have seen
I'm sorry my sister grew to a woman without a mom
And I pray that she never takes your lead
I'm sorry i'll never get to know you as a peer
There's so much of your heart I will never learn
I'm sorry I've yet to spread your ashes out to sea
What do I do with the urn?
I'm sorry you left while I was still angry
My pride subsided eventually...
I'm sorry to all the women I couldn't trust
It's just the first one chose to leave
I'm sorry you hurt for as long as you did
Wish that you could have found another way
I'm sorry I didn't speak at your funeral
I hope this song will be ok
You made it through your twenties
You made it through divorce
Oh mom, what were you going through?
Was this conclusion really worth coming to?
Was it an accident?
Was this really your intent?
As the curtains dropped
were we in your thoughts?
Because I still think of you
How I could be to blame for this too
Maybe it's me that's who
Let your song end too soon

The beginning riff set you up for a journey some people aren't ready for. This album is a masterpiece, I accidentally bought it twice but I'd buy it a third time ameier

this was the first track to resonate with me and it still does. "never really drowning but never really out of the water". says what i can't find the words for. Peace

Side A of a new split with Wayne Robert Thomas is a beautiful drone piece that feels like a time-lapse video of a foggy day. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 14, 2018

Always thought this was an interesting spin off from hail the sun and this album plus the self title is some good shit! I met Donovan Melero in person and while I think the popularity has gone to his head, the drummer and base are cool guys! Neo
