lyrics

As I look to the sky and ponder your life
Relieve the pressure building; inhale
Exhale; the roots of darkness grow
And I’m alone
We live in the present but we look to the past
You caught the right train but it was on the wrong track

Oh, they grow, the branches of your soul
Into my dreams, it seems, I’m somewhere in between feeling
The grief, relief, my own mortality
Ethereal in nature, fought your way out by teeth

Sometimes when I’m alone I like to sit and think
About your life, and your smile and
the way you always gave your best at everything
I remember the show in downtown San Francisco
We were only sixteen, but I’ll always have the memory

If I could see (If I could see)
My body’s a vessel, carrying currents at sea (currents at sea),
And there you’ll be (And there you’ll be)
I’m living for something, something that’s bigger than me

Oh, they grow, the branches of your soul
Into my dreams, it seems, I’m somewhere in between feeling
The grief, relief, my own mortality
Ethereal in nature; fought your way out by teeth

And it’s your ghost I see
And it’s your ghost, I believe
The sun sets behind the mountains again
The crimson cracks the sky and now I miss you my friend

I’ve learned to let go

I see your smile everywhere I thought you should be
I see your eyes in the face of every stranger

blackwing is still my favourite cloudkicker release but subsume sure is up there. I think I prefer the original to the remaster honestly (it's been a while though, I'll have to listen again soon) katsumashi
