lyrics

Shattered (Full Gospel)

Oh, please stay
This place has fallen apart
Where there’s no peace to be found or recover
The only way
The only taste of delight that brings us closer to death and the end
It’s on the way
Between the start and the blight
When all the curtains come down to discover
No other way
My will is bent to the fight and I don’t want to let go ‘til the end

'Cause I just want to be your lover
And I would love to be your friend
Withholding face to the light
Another glimpse of the night
In my disgrace I belong
To this dark, dead end

Oh, what a day
Whatever’s left of my heart
There’s nothing left to repair for another
We couldn’t play
We wouldn’t pick it apart when there’s no peace to be found in the end
And come what may
Our spirits shattered and tight
To where the curtains pull back to discover
We tried in vain
We never wanted the fight but there’s no place we can go, in the end

But I just want to be your lover
And I’d still love to be your friend
Withhold my face from the light
Let’s give ourselves to the night
In our defeat we belong
To this dark, dead end

(Solo)

Repeat first chorus

This is the kind of gothic rock I absolutely love. Oldschool, guitar-heavy music in the vein of Love Like Blood. I'm really hoping for a full-length LP. WotanAK

Absolutely one of my favorite goth rock bands and albums!! I listen to this album on repeat sometimes; it just never gets old to me. It’s so haunting and beautiful in places and dark and gritty in others, which makes it exemplary goth rock music in my opinion. Exactly the kind of listening experience I want and enjoy so much. Thank you <3 asphodel

Strangers

Perfectly gloomy Norwegian goth/post-punk, anchored by a punchy rhythm section and driven by chiming guitar lines and morose vocals. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 16, 2021

Cool Goth Rock from Louisville! I’m way out of my normal genre with this addition. Sleep all day, party all night. It’s fun to be a vampire. WaitingfortheTurningPoint
