So you’ve come to know my secrets
In retrospect
The light was bright enough to blind
In a bunker lies the defect
To circumvent
The gaze of trying eyes
Do or drown, do or drown
In a pool of confetti
Sleep just fine
Believing you saved me
So save me
Save me
Fill your mouth full
With concern
Toil in jest
Of the absurd
Why don't you save me?
To what do I owe the pleasure
Of this unsought salvation
Line up single serving friends
I’ll take you in
Your strife will soon be on the mend
Or we’ll go over it again
How many words must you spout freely
Into an abyss of cacophonous sound
How much forced empathy does it take
To drown out the voices of guilt and doubt?
Do you think that's right?
Do or drown, do or drown
In a pool of confetti
Sleep just fine
Believing you saved me
So save me
We are not wanted here, we are not wanted here
We are not wanted here
In this state of emotion, times are bleak
Perhaps a softer, more “pop-forward” album compared to Inmazes and Witness however equally as effective. Vola simply know how to make approachable and great music. 8/10 RJ
I've always been on the fence about Elder. The musicianship was always there but it never clicked. Omens and Innate Passage have certainly changed that. QNdNas7kQgBG5fi
