lyrics
A damp and muggy world greets me
Mirroring the oppression in my mind
It feels like this will always be all I know
It feels like this will always be all I breathe
Forget this hair, these boots and these tattoos
If my heart hurts, I’m going to tell you
And I can barely stand to comprehend
The thought of your last breath
5 years gone away as I wake today
Half a decade of life blessed by you
My life landmarked by unwarranted pain
Your name etched in stone too soon
Crimson blaspheme defines me
I’m always trapped in karma's darker side
I’m drifting between death and reveille
A paradox of freedom and captivity
I’m testing everything tonight
I’m racing through every yellow light
I question everything that I can't feel
And right now, I can't feel you
Oh, I can’t feel you
Resign yourself to flying
With my voice beneath your wings
Combine our cells, nefarious
Mutant vibrant everlastings
And I don't fear death
But I'd rather you didn't have to
Death gives life its meaning
But I, would rather trust you
Mirroring the oppression in my mind
It feels like this will always be all I know
It feels like this will always be all I breathe
Forget this hair, these boots and these tattoos
If my heart hurts, I’m going to tell you
And I can barely stand to comprehend
The thought of your last breath
5 years gone away as I wake today
Half a decade of life blessed by you
My life landmarked by unwarranted pain
Your name etched in stone too soon
Crimson blaspheme defines me
I’m always trapped in karma's darker side
I’m drifting between death and reveille
A paradox of freedom and captivity
I’m testing everything tonight
I’m racing through every yellow light
I question everything that I can't feel
And right now, I can't feel you
Oh, I can’t feel you
Resign yourself to flying
With my voice beneath your wings
Combine our cells, nefarious
Mutant vibrant everlastings
And I don't fear death
But I'd rather you didn't have to
Death gives life its meaning
But I, would rather trust you

Cloudkicker is one of the most emotive and powerful vocal-less bands we've ever heard. We can't get enough of them. It's like Gojira's little brother...
