lyrics

My whole world is crashing down and I don't know what to think of it
I try to keep my head up but it's hard when there's no time left
Depressed is the state of mind that I'm in
A death sentence is not the way I want to live
But if that's the plan for me, help me live it out until I can't breathe

How do I cope from here with my last chance, with my last breath
I look to you and it's getting closer, not what I want but I'll gain forever
I get to the point where my thoughts haunt me night and day
Help me to remember what you said. You have a plan for me

It's hard to go on, this disease has left me weak
I'm waiting for a new body, I'm waiting to be free
I'm breaking down, I'm asking why, this has to be part of my life
Consequence of a fallen world, doesn't make it easier, doesn't make it any better
Help me, my mind is failing, Help me, this is my last chance
Help me see your plan for me, this is my last chance

How do I press on when my life seems to be already gone
Why does this have to happen now
Reach down into the dark and pull me out

I'm holding on to what I want my life to be
I'm not promised another breath
It's so hard to give up the dream

Breathe life into my lungs so I can breathe again
I have to let go knowing You are my hope
This is my final breath, only to live again

My life is not in vain

Merci Déhà for the download code. Lots of bands use these ingredients – pretty female vocals over doomy guitars always sounds good, but usually that's where the ideas run out. That isn't the case here. Each song is packed with ideas and evolutions, genres and references it's boring to list but not at all to listen to. A pleasure to have been introduced to this. Luke

Have only listened to the first three tracks so far. Somehow the indie/grunge/funereal/doom elements meld together well. Well worth a listen! 😁 Update - couldn't stop listening. No weak tracks. Music that won't stand still, but holds up well throughout. My favourite non-electronic release for some time. Thanks so much for the code! 😎 Rinchen Choesang
