Lirieke: The Amity Affliction. Jesse Intense.
(Featuring Michael Crafter & Matthew Wright)
I let go of these cold nights long ago and now it's time for you to follow suit.
Take those night sky tears and burning eyes stinging from pursuit;
take your regret and sallow timbre and throw it to the ocean
where misery can seek it out - you know misery loves a lonely stranger.
And you've been waiting with open arms for so long, so long.
Take a breath and roll it out, it's high time for your chest
to resonate something more tangible. The angles, they're cutting in;
they're destroying the cohesion, cutting ties and killing friends.
So long, so long that now it seems to be a farce, but it's painted on your face
like the spread of an open book: time to throw it to the fire.
Settle down beneath the ocean, stare upwards raise your arms and say goodnight;
tomorrow the sun dawns on settled scores, and homeward bound you'll find your solace,
you'll find your solidarity and peace.
