lyrics
Found myself face down in the town I grew up in
Even in my dreams, I cannot avoid the chilling scream
I guess I’m here to stay now, mother, your wish is my command
Mother, what would you recommend?
Remember when we used to build castles in the sand?
Remember when I got so drunk that I couldn’t stand?
Were you proud of me then?
Did you see my sloppy grin?
I’m telling you for the first time this year, I don’t really want to be here
I don’t want to see your tears
Drip down your aging face for even one more second of the day
I’m sorry that I couldn’t be a better man
And I apologize for not having a life plan
Thank you for always telling me that I can do anything
I appreciate the kindness but I’m not the one to blame
Break the mold, take a hold (I can’t be the one to tell you)
Break the mold, you’re the soul (I can’t be the one to tell you)
Call me what I was meant to be called, mother
Make me what I was meant to be made, mother
Break the mold (I can’t be the one to tell you)
Break the mold, you’re the soul (I can’t be the one to tell you)
A rollercoaster of rage-crying emotion sure to send you over the edge if you're not careful. Gotta love Old Gray and all the emo ragers they write for us. Mikey
Certainly a controversial direction for the band, but this album ultimately rests as my favorite from TTNG. The technical mastery of their previous albums is still present here along with some very thought provoking and philosophical lyrics. I may not always agree with the lyrical messaging, but this is an album which rewards careful listening. Syobnaf
Fans of Polvo, take note! The excellent Kansas City band Abandoncy has the same fondness for corkscrewing riffs & melodies. It’s great! Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 28, 2022
