About This Track

'Almost Always' by Rolo Tomassi is a 2022 metal track from the album 'Where Myth Becomes Memory'. The lyrics look back to beginnings and dwell on a failure to change, with feelings described as weightless and distance figured as emotional separation. There is a sense of trying to bury something, then asking whether the listener is truly listening to their heart. A pedestal is imagined as something that can be kept up, only to dissipate into air, as the song ends on the question of what happens.

"Almost Always" is a track by Rolo Tomassi, from the album Where Myth Becomes Memory, released 4th February 2022. The track is 6:30 long. It's filed under Metal. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 2 articles about Rolo Tomassi.

Lyrics

Almost Always

It's all returning to the start

It could be different but it's not

These sentiments are weightless

There's more than miles between us

A pedestal to be kept on and dissipate into the air
Eventually I will forget, I close my eyes and bury it

Are you listening to your heart?

What happens when it stops?

Are you waiting for a sign?
A goodbye?
Goodbye
What do you do when you're lost?

You're dreaming
If you think it's changing
But you wait for a sign
A goodbye
Goodbye

You're dreaming
If you think it's changing
But you wait for a sign
A goodbye
Goodbye
