Lyrics

Descend

Sitting back I only wish
today will turn out fine
And wash away the stain
the poison in my eyes
What do you recommend?
I feel my life descending
I'm falling out of reach
catch me as I bleed again

I'm not insane
can't reach the pain

If I could be all by myself
I could be me
If you could see
live with my pain
the thoughts that I keep

I hate the way they are
their patronising thoughts
Tried to get inside my head
ask the questions I have read
But one thing makes it hard
feel so fragile as I cry
So confused yet so alive
so abused
the system lied
They lied

If I could be all by myself
I could be me
If you could see
live with my pain
the thoughts that I keep

Hands appeared around my neck
Felt so hard to breath I stared
As my focus turned to haze
I could see them

If I could be all by myself
I could be free
If they could see
live with my pain
the thoughts that I keep

Yeah, yeah
Alone, alone
Yeah, Yeah (alone, alone)

Descend

    What ‘Reiði’ means for Black Foxxes, from Icelandic rage to light and dark

    Black Foxxes’ 2018 album turns an Icelandic word for rage into a study of recovery, escape and emotional contrast.
