Tristan Mahler This album is what the Rx Bandits, Protest the Hero, and The Mars Volta sound like in an orgy. The music is complex without being overstimulating, the singing is raw without being rough, and the two work together fantastically. Keep representing H-town, boys. You do us proud. Favorite track: Terror, River Gypsy.

A beauty with boast and a modest mouth Anacrusis, the whole town was proud But when she spoke, no words came out And when you spoke, all she heard was A silence screaming in her ears (Sonitus is the drug for you) No one could understand her fears (No longer will you be waiting) She's waiting For a cure undo this blight (Sonitus is the drug for you) A sunrise coming into night (No longer will you be waiting) She's waiting Time after time, he would speak his mind Heart made of gold, thoughts unaligned But when he spoke, it was full of doubt And when he spoke, all she heard was

You're listening to those who are lying They are selling what I'm not buying Tell me what, tell me why You believe every word but mine I'll stop talking when you start listening Here I stand Your blood is no longer on my hands Even though you won't hear my voice in the quiet Is this what you call your fantasy? 'Cause all I'm seeing is a tragedy Your mind's away, your life's a shame You won't hear a word I say You'll start listening when you're missing me

Breathe 03:31
I will never leave this place You're a little distracting, I'm too good at reacting Disturbed, I wake with fear (The walls just aren’t right here) The sound consumes me; Bleed me, use me I will never leave this place I burn such a gorgeous flame This chill run through my veins Keep me warm, keep me sane Hold me like I'm gonna leave Pull me in, it's all I need I’ll speak to you in tongues Fear my lungs and all that I’ll become I'm all letting go, a child far from home All the side effects take effect I'm burning the candle at both ends I need you to breathe, love I need you to be love I can't wait, I'm so tired (Slowly, hold me) I've been lost for all my days Take it back, can't stand reacting 'I need you to be my something real' So breathe, love Can you save me? This broken horse? I could be so much more It’s coming down, I’m coming down I've been blind for all my days Take it back, take it back

Quick on her heels She moves her feet from the burn of the street and walks into the fire Tongue of a liar Scream, 'I am clean. Just let me run back home. I've done enough' The heat trapped in her skin Summer's child, misgiven again ‘I should have stayed’ Wrecked, she'll say, 'What have I done?' Tell me just what I could be To sound the start of everything Hear the cries, the color of her eyes Terror riverside Do you believe the words on the air? Broken, the beasts, how they bleed In her wake, the current screaming Breathe, repeating, 'Cadence save...'
5.
This new feeling found, hearing all that sounds I can finally breathe Life is rearranged, a feeling so strange I’m becoming Light is fading out, vision failing now And it’s frightening When was I so numb? Flesh has come undone Speechless, I've be-
6.
Listen up, those sounds that cut Your name to ribbons, bitter on our tongues Signs of speechless screaming, ‘I’m longing for home’ You say you've had enough Girl, your number's up (Hear) In silence, screaming (Here) Hardwired relapse, you (Know) They are out there waiting (No) He won't be there for you Tell me why a monster am I No more Could this be what I've done all this for? Fear, the fire fuel this hate Child, burn the end of days Babylon wants back it's whore We won't sit and feed it for you’ve Given up yourself and burned your time We don't want to hear you whine A monster inside 'Ana, please, believe it's for your own sake' I heard you say, 'Please follow me home' Tell them they're wrong, tell them them I'm clean This life misplaced won't go to waste I'm finally whole (I am whole) Gunshot, horror This beauty's gone to waste I know she was one of the lucky ones (Know that you're one of the lucky ones) (Will her, kill her) Suffer, brother Don't call Cadence, he's not home (Damn you, you made me depend on you) This pain, I never thought I'd see the day where all my life would fade away Feel inside, this heart stops beating, life retreating Your heart still beats within my chest Your words still linger on my breath These bloody hands stained on your dress There's no excuses left I'm not running from the dark I'm not done, I won't hold my tongue Brother, I'm not running from the dark

Winter Queen 05:47
See me shake, cut my whimpers (Rattled mind, fall in line) Adrenaline, wired-eyed (Steel your tongue, come back from) Play at me, your wrist ringing true Broken, I'm bleeding into you Inconsistence, breeding in your chest, is beating Never hear me say They could never save you (I need to cool my head) Those sorry hands they gave you (Take stock of all I've bled) I taught my legs to wander so unsure (I'll send a beat to hear come back) Life retriever (Play at) Bent believer Am I right? Terror post-disaster Am I right to be, winter queen? (Here I'll be perfect machine) Put the pieces back together all wrong (Rebuild me make me strong) It's blistering, what you've done to me (Never free from what you gave me) Can't you see what I've become?

There's Summer in those eyes Burning, I steal a touch This breadth is too much Now, I've found this new come down A city where she sleeps A words begins You'll never hold on As evening turns, the signs will burn You'll never hold on for long So we switch the lights between the actors on the screen I know every line, but they're no longer mine How the cold wrecks my bones She keeps me from sleep Her mouth it sings You'll never hold on As morning turns, you'll never learn You'll never hold on for long She left before I even said, ‘You’ll never hold on’ Before I even said, you’re already gone You'll never hold on For days, I’ll yearn for Summer's burn You'll never hold on for long The fire, it ends
9.
Past the hardest part Who forgot your heart? You couldn't wait Not one to grow up old and tired Day after day I cut you down just to stoke the fire Who was it for? We hurt her more You're not the author, you're the story I'll face the sun in the morning Was there anything she said? 'Was there anything?' She said You should've seen her break Did you ever learn to balance or burn? I slept for seven days The weeks grew weak, I stayed So stop this hardened heart I forgot my part Did you ever learn?
10.
What went wrong in moving on? Misplaced and shaking, I'm breaking up (I was) distracted (by you) Surround me (I feel) your body (drag me down) I'm drowning Wait, you've wandered far past crossing the line If there's panic, it's mine (If it’s wrong, what's right?) Their features all run speechless (So) why can't I find light I've lost track of who's out of line This floor's not level and you're wasting my time Ends bleeding, the words strike the air Just tell me you're there (You owe me that much) Say something, say anything Is this the path carved out to take me back to solid ground? I've found, far from the shore, sister crying Brother's coming home to free you Viral, stealing, bodies reeling Lights on the walls, they indicate Eyes run red, they indicate I can't remember being (Which one fell out of line?) Is this sensation feeling? (I'm drawn on wasted time) Where did you go? Please come home (Viral, stealing) I need to know, where did you go (Bodies, reeling) Say something, say anything I was not the shovel dig this rut receive me I'm not God Pride sought company in pity From her, I drew no blood Ever after's just so hard to keep Save a little of all I lost to sleep Forgive me, understand why I had to go Forgive me, understand why I couldn't go I sit, the convict, eyes screaming fire Can nobody see that I'm freezing? Her breath courses cold through my bones I'm screaming, 'is this all I could do on my own?' I sit, the convict, eyes screaming fire There's no one can hear that I'm screaming Her breath courses cold through my bones I'm freezing In the arms of the sun, I'll become I'm not done, I won't hold my tongue Ana, I won't, believe me Ana, I don't believe me
