"...and the ones that break us."

A song off of the follow-up to Black Manifestations; Black Masks.
Coming this winter.
lyrics
Waste it, you taste this now
All for what? A little fun? Yeah
Wasted, sedate my trust
Bottoms up, porcelain tough
I get what I get and I think that's fine
What I don't get is your state of mind
Fix the blanket, I'll lay limp
And I'll close my eyes
You run, you run, you run
A finger down my spine, spine
I know, I know, I know
This body's not mine
I'm floating in and out, losing time and sound
Waiting for the other shoe to come down
I'd rather be gutted and die, gored up quick than be left alive
Yet I'm still here, so all I can ask is why
Why make me number nine
Number nine, number nine, number nine
Number nine, number nine
Number nine, number nine
Hated, I'm fading now
I might sleep in the middle of the street right in front of me
Hate it, the sound of a moan
Drunk driver in a truck and I'm the deer in the road, all prettied up
I get what I get and I think that's fine
But what I don't get; why I was chosen for headlights
Thrash in the windshield, the glass tastes thin
As it cuts my eyes...
You run, you run, you run
A finger down my spine, spine
I know, I know, I know
This body's not mine
I'm floating in and out, losing time and sound
Waiting for the other shoe to come down
I'd rather be gutted and die, gored up quick than be left alive
Yet I'm still here, so all I can ask is why
Why make me number nine
Number nine, number nine, number nine
Number nine, number nine
Number nine, number nine
I get what I get
And I think that's fine
And I think that's fine
And I think that's fine

Samual Glass - guitars, vocals, synths, drums, production
The best post-punk project you've NEVER heard.
Unreal wall-to-wall sound that is reminiscent of greats in the genre like Have A Nice Life but vocals heavily akin to emo acts of the early '90s. The Coward Robert Ford
A hate-fueled sweeping, haunting, thrashing nightmare of an album that will most certainly be the gold-standard of its genres for many years to come - you just don't know it yet. The Coward Robert Ford
The latest EP from Brooklyn’s Gilah is an explosion of sound and color, with oceanic guitars and dreamlike melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 14, 2020
Irish act Perlee used lockdown time to develop demos into this raw, but lovely collection of tuneful alternative folk songs. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 27, 2020
An easy-to-love combination of emo and jangle pop, the first full album from Spirit Night in eight years feels bathed in a golden glow. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 8, 2023
