(Me: Farther than the Summer Islands I'm sending my ravens
in hope to find allies)
Waves after waves collapsing with forces
Wave after wave threatening to shatter carefully constructed ivory
A fading dream
A dying sanctuary
(Them: We are the righteous, the pure and the blessed ones and in the benevolence of the god who made iron grow we will thrive)
Like snowflakes or raindrops
Like dandelions in a storm
On a pandemonic search for answers
Pretending not to see the forest from the trees
Waves after waves
constantly trying to overthrow and undermine
(The Horn of Winter to sound)
Barricades put up arduous
and still fertile fields devour 50 years of reason oh so easily
A coup de main
(..If only we had listened to de Gouges - oh poor Olympe, we mourn thee)
And in a hundreds minds I feel the desire to rise
to take advantage of the cracks in the obsidian long gone cold
And thousands of swords batter on ironclad shields
relatively craven at first
to slowly become a murmur
swelling into a roaring river
turning into a flood
In a million hearts there is only cold and deafening silence
(and so it begins again)
Knives in the blackest of nights reflect red as the coruscating sun
your work undisturbed
no witnesses
And I would gladly unleash Black Dread upon you
Fiery whisper to bring the light
but his bones are mere dust
And so I'm stricken with fear
(and so it happens again)
no more the weak of heart
(and so it happens again)
no more
I will be the river
I will be the flood
I will be the sea
(ascending)
and fleeing in terror wont get you medals of gallantry

To me there are five sides of screamo--the anthemic post-rock side, the jangly emo side, the claustrophobic black metal side, the chaotic hardcore side, and the menacing, "Protest Song '68 but the heavy parts are screamier" side. This falls into the anthemic post rock side.

Shoegaze overdosing on meth and caffeine pills. Every release on Cloudrat's discography is a different flavor of insanity. This one is rocky road with a twist of antifreeze.
