about

Written around the time we were recording our album, we had already wrapped up drum tracking. Closing out the 'Stale' storyline.

lyrics

The seasons bring no relief
From the endless cycle of pain
I've tried to stay awake,
But I fear it's not enough.
A weight left upon my chest
These burdens are too much to bare
I've tried my hardest to wait
Left alone with my thoughts and decay

I have never felt ashamed
As much I do now
This weight is too much to bare
I've grown tired of staying awake

I guess it's always been too late
No longer burdened by the pressure to conform
I've failed in this life, and wish to be reborn


By now, you'll know of all the selfish things I've done.
By now, you'll know of all the selfish things I've done.
By now, you'll know of all the selfish things I've done.
By now, you'll know of all the selfish things I've done.
By now, you'll know of all the selfish things I've done.
