Preying for the last time.
Dying to undertake.
Lusting for Redemption.
For Souls young and old.
With each passing Hero.
None are fit to stay.
Besides the lessons they left us.
They all seem dry today.
Here one day.
And Gone the next.
What does it matter.
If no one knew your name.
The Clock is ticking.
But time is gone.
Put your feet on the ground.
Then rip your soul out from your chest.
A Stoic rewarded with a Stare.
Like a whore rewarded with Love.
Like a Stoic rewarded with Silence.
Like a Warrior rewarded with Concubines
Between the Lines.
Live like you will live forever.
Live like you will die tonight.
For all those who have helped you.
Let them know what it means.
With each passing road.
There so much less to say.
With all the lessons learned.
They seem all left for yesterday.

I love the light and shade between Bryan's dirty and Emma's forlorn vocals. There are so many layers to this recording that are driven home through contrast. Plus the riffs are brilliant and get me moving. I can't stop listening to Thou and Emma in general lately. spaceman2250
