lyrics
I say
I bought a ticket to the darkside
I left my body in the twilight and everything went black
I say
the bitter fruit is in your brain, babe
Your thoughts are slaughtered on a cold tape and pleasure is on the rack
And did you ever know hearts are hollow
another fear and a pill to swallow
and did you see yourself in decay
another end of another boring day
And did you ever feel the pain at night?
And did you fight to understand?
And did your fingers reach out for the light?
And did the fires burn your hand?
I try
to clean my fingers from the bloodstains
to tame my instincts within cruel chains but vanity is a treat
To cry
there might be something in the distance
a sweet assent in your resistance or maybe it's deceit
And did you ever see beauty fading
a trembling hand and new dust squalls raiding
and while the pleasure was so near
it's another end of another boring year
And did you ever feel...
Tie your instincts to a stake and understand
There will be laughter for overtaking when in the silence a heart is breaking
so lick your fingers count to five and reach the end of another gloriously boring life
I've enjoyed The Wake since the 90s. The new album feels like a trip to right where they left off! Goth Rock at it's best! I can't wait to see where they go from here!! aklosowski22
New wave of Gothic Rock at it's finest. This band has top level talent from well renowned acts involved so wasn't the least bit surprised upon hearing the opening track. If you miss late 80's to mid 90's gothic rock bands, I can't recommend this one enough. m4rkos1334
