lyrics

Beneath the moon in bloodred fields
this all starts
a wound within my skull will heal.
It's coming soon so let's be clear,
I need you to let me know you're real.

Far from all that man has made
in lost life
I cannot decide your fate.
Come with me and kill my fears
you know the dread I breed.

I'm no angel
I would kill a million men to see the light again
but I swear I belong to you, my love.

Here within my broken form i store you,
to keep my darkest chasms warm.
A guiding light through the harshest storm,
in this world it's you that I adore.
What am I but walking bone that has found a way for him to lie?
They'd rather see me all alone but you would rather die.

I have seen things you would surely not believe lest they would haunt your dreams, but I swear I belong to you my love.

We sink below like heavy stones beneath the surface world,
no longer slaves to bouyancy.
We greet the depths like cautious friends for this is what we earn when you fall in love with me.

Something broken will not mend like new again so I won't hold my breath, but I swear I'll belong to you my love.
For our ending we'll fall underground where we will spend eternity, and there I swear I'll be with you my love.

Arcade Island recommends:

Mr. Plastic
by Glowbug

This album is a perfect example of music for the sake of music. There are little to no intelligible words, but lyrics are simply (catchy) melodies, almost as if we should move to the music, not flair. Arcade Island

Tour EP
by Teen Daze

I love how this album exemplifies feelings and moods, the songs aren't necessarily about events. Sometimes I think that says more about life than anything else. Arcade Island
