Who are they supposed to trust?
A coward?
A fraud?
I'll see you on the other side.
Pull me away.
Pull me under.
I can't wait to be free.
You're just as guilty as me.
The depression flows within me,
like the wind and the blood in my veins.
I'd rather fight my way out.
Even with a gun to my head.
Another bridge burned.

I generally appreciate the album by album move away from hardcore towards extreme metal. Yet for me personally, this is where the balance is perfect. Kind of like Metallica's Ride the Lightning: subsequent albums were more sophisticated and complex, yet less intense, too. Great to come back to, again and again. jornfin
