Ordinary

Days pass
So much the same a blur of common and
Ordinary
Deep lines and grey on a face
I barely recognize
Empty words fall on deaf ears so far apart
So far apart
These voids between us will kill us all
The final hours
Will drag unnoticed
As we ignore the fates of
All but our own
detached and so selfish so cold and so heartless
How can a world survive
When humanity is
All but absent
The agony of nothing changing a life so stale
Frozen and endless
The agony of nothing changing a life so stale
Frozen and endless

Blackened
01:46
|
|||
|
Grey skies break clear
Squint through blackened eyes
Those last days spent in unrelenting pain
Unrelenting pain
Bruises do not fade
Fade to memory
Tiny hands grasp
At cold heart
Scratch for some sign
Some sign of hope
To heal takes effort
Clock ticks away
Nothing
Remains clear

Dust
03:37
|
|||
|
Dust settles on sweaty brow
On bleeding fingers
On solid flesh
All this effort
So little progress
Crawling back against the wall
Crawling back
Hidden in isolation
Find no safety
No safety in regret
The rains can’t wash away your guilt
All this just to be buried
Just to be buried again
Day breaks on this loss
All this time slips away
Time
Time slips away

Reign
04:41
|
|||
|
Dark deep down below the reign
The reign of man
Buried in concrete
Concrete and stone
A world built
Built so
Unsustainable
And yet surviving
Surviving still
No light but what
But we make
No life but
But what but what you’re told
Your fate decided
A lifetime before
Before your
First breath
Your first breath
No hope to
To reach the
The world above
The world you
You were told
Was never real
Some primal part of you knows
This is not
This is not
Not
What life
Life was meant to be
Below the end
The end of man

Faith
03:01
|
|||
|
Devoid of empathy
How can you stand in judgment of me
So cold
So selfish
So undeserving
So undeserving
This
World
Owes
You
Nothing
But you take
All you can
But you take
All you can
All you can and more
All you can
All you can and more
All you can and more
This world owes you nothing
This world owes you
Owes you
Owes you
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing

Silence
02:57
|
|||
|
Long and silent years crawled by
A stranger who’s name I share no common goals
No shared hopes or dreams
Just this name and silence
Razor sharp and bloodied
This timeline has reached its end
Not much feels different
This hollow goodbye
Goodbye
The new timeline forges on never looking back
No words spoken
As we passed
In unsettling silence
In unsettling
My face not recognized
Would it have mattered
Mattered at all
If I’d stayed away
Would it have mattered
Mattered at all
If I’d stayed away

Embrace
01:38
|
|||
|
Sleepless nights upon sleepless nights
No comfort in thought no thoughts of
Of comfort
Just the pain and the hours
The loneliness
And the shame
Push it all away
And embrace
and embrace
Your pain
Pain

Undone
04:58
|
|||
|
Frost covers glass
Snow muffles sound
Another year
Come to a close
These devils of my own design
Take me down
Dark roads
I already
I already know the way
That silence I could not break
Even as the end folded in on us
That silence I could not break
Even as the end folded in on us
So much left unsaid
So much left undone
The void will remain
Carried to my grave
The void will remain
Carried to my grave
The silence between
The knowing
And the goodbye
The silence between
The knowing
And the goodbye
Never undone
The silence between
The knowing
And the goodbye
These devils of my own design
Take me down
Dark roads
The void will remain
Carried to my grave

May Our Chambers Be Full
by Emma Ruth Rundle & Thou
supported by 4 fans who also own “With Your Faith Silenced”
I love the light and shade between Bryan's dirty and Emma's forlorn vocals. There are so many layers to this recording that are driven home through contrast. Plus the riffs are brilliant and get me moving. I can't stop listening to Thou and Emma in general lately.
