lyrics

Let the fear wash over. Consuming me. Suspend my thoughts.

I've been losing touch with reality these past few months.

Will you become my safe. Please hold inside all my dread. Render me hopeful. Is all hope dead.

I just want to be absolved. I will survive.
Bleach out what I suffer inward. Illness is tied to hope and everyone within.

I am tired of my head and how it disconnects the physicality of life and how it all ends.

Can you stay with me? Can you bare with me? I don't want to feel alone. I don't want to feel afraid, but I am grasping hollow straws hoping for a sudden change.

Can you broadcast some better days to hold on to. Become a beacon for my life. Please don't lose light.

Brighter Arrows sadly ended to soon. They left behind some amazing music that would be worth your time to listen. DROUGHTS

Reminds me a lot of the unrestrained powerviolence-tinged screamo of the 90s, only with a modern recording sound. also the songwriting is top notch. Pogo
