lyrics
voices never spoke to me
drowning in an open sea
life or death its poetry
it's heavens gate that's opening
you are free to leave but have fly with broken wings
dead inside a ghost to me
they chose to bleed for dopamine
no deceit, the only thing they know to sing
noticing at no degree not knowing what the omen brings
stole the peace, choke to breathe
holding grief with no release
hope is weak dont you see you cant go toe to toe with me
monster in my head and there's no way i can fight it
i'll build another bridge but one day i will go ignite it
i've never felt reliant on the ones close to my iris
tried to pry what's on my mind but never got used to the silence
i'm defiant
but my brain just lives in disarray
living life against the grain
moon against the dawn of day
light the fuse wrap the noose
you can choose your fate
nothing left for you to save
these opposites just dont relate
(chorus)
and these opposites just dont relate, no
still these voices never seem to change, hope
i've got nothing but myself left to blame
i've been living in my mind alone
one day ima find a home
and these opposites just dont relate, no
still these voices never seem to change, growth
i've got nothing but myself that's left to blame
still i try to keep my mind atoned
one day ima die alone
(verse 2)
silhouette of darkness and the anger i embrace
still i'm living apathetic towards the daggers in my face
i've been feeling like i'm dead when i'm lost inside escape
keeping nothing in my head there's just a zombie in my place
i'm erased
but the silence isn't new to me
words are only crudity
we live a life we're doomed to bleed
thinking i might die from pressure of this scrutiny
flowers that had grew deceit
you speak in tongues, your eulogy
and i often wonder why
we never know whats right instead we stare into the sky
so i'm looking towards the light i want to see right through your lies
getting tired of this life i am peeling off my disguise
i know that you will always hate
everything that i've been keeping under surface of this face
it's been hiding in my breath, my insides are all a mess
keep a diamond in my chest but it has no way to escape
(chorus)
and these opposites just dont relate, no
still these voices never seem to change, hope
i've got nothing but myself left to blame
i've been living in my mind alone
one day ima find a home
and these opposites just dont relate, no
still these voices never seem to change, growth
i've got nothing but myself that's left to blame
still i try to keep my mind atoned
one day ima die alone
Sometimes you come across an artist that is compelled to do what they do.
I appreciate the musicality and the arrangement and the artistry of the songs. He sings and plays like his life depends on it. I appreciate the humanity of the lyrics… Like reading Tortilla Flats, or watching Nobody’s Fool.
Ceschi is a bright star. I’m glad he’s loose in the world. oldtruck
Wonderful album that we reviewed with a lot of fun on MEFD (in French): https://www.mesenceintesfontdefaut.com/2021/04/24/recommandation-chris-conde-engulfed-in-the-marvelous-decay/ MesEnceintesFD
