Do you feel
like time’s speeding up
You can’t find the love
you once had to give.
But hold on
Like a light in the morning that wakes without warning
It’ll find you again.
Do you feel
all messed up inside
can’t face what you’ve done.
A touch in the night.
In the eyes
of a campfire smile.
The shame that you feel
It’s all gonna heal.
Light in my eyes
where I found your pack
your Marlboro stash
But you know, I don’t mind
We’ve all got our share
of story to bear &
A smile to hide.
This is what I remember emo and pop punk music *sounding* like in the 90s and 2000s, but not what it actually sounded like. basking in the glow is an emotionally mature update of those times, and much appreciated. thepirc
The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world.
But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up. szczur
If you've ever had to Google clumsy phrases to find a word that matched a feeling you could only feebly describe, and you ended up discovering words like hiraeth, sehnsucht, or saudade, The Million Masks of God may be an excellent companion soundtrack to your experience. joel
I got to listen to some of these songs live during Origami Angel's tour in 2022, which was a really cool experience. I loved them enough to buy a CD!!! KZDEX
