MY NAME RHYMES WITH THE MESS I'M LEFT TO DROWN IN,
AND EVERY NOW AND THEN YOU WHISPER DOWN THE WELL
THAT I SHOULD HAVE CLIMBED RIGHT OUT OF FOR SO LONG NOW. I GOT STUCK ON REPEAT WITH NO STORIES LEFT TO TELL.
YOU TALK ABOUT THE BEST YEARS OF YOUR LIFE BECAUSE YOU'RE SCARED I'D TAKE TOO MANY, BECAUSE YOU'RE SCARED I'D TURN MY BACK,
IT SEEMS YOU'RE STRUGGLING TO SAY
WHAT WEIGHS SO OBVIOUSLY HEAVY,
IT SOMETIMES CAN BE EASIER TO KEEP TRUE FEELINGS IN CHECK.
AND THAT'S THE BEST YOU CAN DO.
SO YOU PUSH ME DOWN TO SAVE YOU FROM THE BURN, SLOWLY RID YOURSELF OF EVERY DOUBT OF MY RETURN TO THE BLINDING DAYLIGHT AND TO YOU MY DEAR,
BUT I CANNOT GET USED TO THE LONELINESS DOWN HERE.
AND THE BEST YOU CAN DO,
IS LEAVE THE FEELING THAT SOME THINGS WON'T EVER MEAN ANYTHING AT ALL AGAIN WITHOUT YOU.
YEAH THAT'S THE BEST YOU CAN DO.

A new track from this tough-as-nails Boston hardcore outfit has some words for men who would dehumanize women in the scene. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 21, 2018
Been waiting 8 years to hear Jack and Chicken bounce vocals off each other again. And holy shit is it worth it. If you have any hesitations about buying this, your reasons are 100% invalid. Greg Andersson
