I fell apart waiting for you to close your eyes
Bound to the floor where we failed to say goodbye
I’ve spent my whole life just so that I could find
sometimes things fall apart just when you know they’ll be there
As it started to rain again,
drenched by the storm you left, alone with your favorite things
I’d rather selfishly weep than replace the one I loved
I’d rather not open my eyes to a day without clouds to distract me from the fact that life continues on
I’d rather not sleep if it means that I’ll dream of a place where I can hide me from myself
It's a departure from their previous work, with many songs actually "slower" than earlier records, but still bringing the same energy and feeling. le monsieur
Their raw production elevates this Helsinki band's energetic style of emo, packed with math rock-inspired dynamics and charging melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 15, 2023
Certainly a controversial direction for the band, but this album ultimately rests as my favorite from TTNG. The technical mastery of their previous albums is still present here along with some very thought provoking and philosophical lyrics. I may not always agree with the lyrical messaging, but this is an album which rewards careful listening. Syobnaf
