lyrics

Out of tunnels with the boost of shattered dreams
parabolic minds in centrifuge
Strobelight flashes hashing from behind the trees
and the cries of withering and that's why

I dream shadows in the sun

But if I tried I could push the clouds aside
with eyes dim and open wide to be combusted in the light

And handwritten words are fading in the noon
like the posters of our teenage days
Devastation is more effective in cold blood
and there's truth in obscurity
See the branches twisting grotesquely towards the sun
hear the moth colliding popping with the lamp
I can bear it to the melting point, I can with a hand before my eyes

I dream shadows in the sun

But now from the coolness of the night
out of mind and out of sight
I will give myself to the light

I've enjoyed The Wake since the 90s. The new album feels like a trip to right where they left off! Goth Rock at it's best! I can't wait to see where they go from here!! aklosowski22

"Life is a black abyss". But ironically some dreams coming true after all. I remember I've been trying to dig up the authors of this music led me through the darkest times of my life having "Psalm" on my mind. Since then, the band came from shadows of the underground (at least for several people) and now, three years past, I have a pleasure to listen to these significant songs in quality they deserve. Long afterlife to the Kings. They were born to reign our minds, you just didn't know it yet! Bloody Paul
