No more passing out judgement or blaming the voice in my head. I am the only thing thats controlling my selfish actions. Windowless, my walls to the world, I built to shelter my mind. Told myself that I was better off alone in this life. A vacuum of a soul, I want to see myself through your eyes. Afraid I won’t come home, afraid I won’t like what I find. No more passing out judgement or blaming the voice in my head. I am the only thing thats controlling my selfish actions. I am not my father’s son or a raindrop in the sea, my blood will not alone define who I am meant to be. Scared, my last breath is inevitable, so I waited for life to unfold, withdrew from the ones that I love, they let me go. Can’t love what you let go, can’t hurt what you don’t know. I am not my father’s son or a raindrop in the sea, my blood will not alone define who I am meant to be. And I want to feel whole again.
Been following Somos for many years, feeling that they had an opus in them...well, here it is. Driving pop-punk sensibilities lend an upbeat tone in contrast to the grim lyrical proceedings, and they absolutely pull it off. Evocative music that's been on repeat for me all month long. RIP, Phil PaintedDogs
