Holding Absence embraces their sonic evolution and charts a course for the future in their triumphant album ‘The Noble Art Of Self Destruction’.
Lyrics
Hope died in front of us Capsized and rudderless I gave up on myself
And, in the rubble, I Saw myself in a different light It changed everything
Sever the parts of my soul I've infected with poisonous cells Or pass the elastic and rope With a dull pair of Scissors, I'll cut it by myself
A sacrifice for a resurrection Make me better again All these mirrors for self-reflection I'm growing sick of the sight of myself
Sever the parts of my soul I've infected with poisonous cells Or pass the elastic and rope With a dull pair of Scissors, I'll cut it by myself
Weapons of glass and steel Towering over me I'm desperate to be seen I'm petrified of being perceived Cut the glut from off my flesh I don't need the excess I'm sick of myself, I'm sick of myself, I'm sick of myself
Weapons of glass and steel Towering over me I'm desperate to be seen I'm petrified of being perceived Cut the glut from off my flesh I don't need the excess I'm sick of myself, I'm sick of myself, I'm sick of myself
Sever the parts of my soul I've infected with poisonous cells Or pass the elastic and rope With a dull pair of Scissors, I'll cut it. Cut it
Sever the parts of myself I let fester, and turn into hell Numb and anaesthetised, wrap me in stitches. I'll cut it by myself
Weapons of glass and steel Towering over me I'm desperate to be seen I'm petrified of being perceived
