    "This is obviously the opener to the album and we wanted to put it first so it would be a real slap in the face. Every line is about the feelings of going through grief. It’s about finding some way to blame a horrible event when there is nothing to blame. There’s nothing or no-one to place the blame on and you make up things and you curse the sky and you look at yourself and think ‘what could I have done to change this?’ It’s also about when someone disappears from your life in an everyday sense and you start missing little habits. It’s purely a documentation of what that is like."
    - *Winston*

    "Wishing Wells"
    I spoke a vow today
    And asked if god would come and play
    I've dug a shallow hole for him to sleep
    But I swear he just won't answer me
    I call on out is he afraid
    I'll bury him down with the ones he keeps
    And if the devil's listening
    I'll come for him as well
    If I suspect he had a hand to play
    And if I see his face in town
    There's room for two down underground
    Nothing's gonna stop me 'til I'm done
    Until I'm done!
    Until I'm done!
    Until I'm done!
    Until I'm done!
    Because tonight I'm killing gods!
    Killing gods!
    It's guilt and frustration, it's everything between
    The silence and the absence hitting home
    Peripheral glances and the chasing of a sound
    I never knew I'd miss until it's gone
    So ask me how I'm coping
    And I'll smile and tell you "I'm just fine"
    While down inside I'm drowning in the fucking rain
    Because when everything is empty
    And your heart is set to cave
    Sometimes all you wish for
    Is a place, is a place to place the blame
    Burn your heaven
    Flood your hell
    Drown you in your wishing wells
    Burn your heaven
    Flood your hell
    Damn you all
    Because tonight I'm killing gods!
    The incendiary shock wave, scorched earth policy
    The devastation that only loss will leave
    The chants and incantations of daily rituals
    A subtle lapse in brutal honesty
    So ask me how I'm coping
    And I'll smile and tell you "I'm just fine"
    While down inside I'm screaming 'til I fucking bleed
    Because when everyone's expendable
    And your heart can't take the wait
    The last thing that you wish for
    Is the face, is the face to face the pain
    Burn your heaven
    Flood your hell
    Drown you in your wishing wells
    Burn your heaven
    Flood your hell
    Damn you all
    Because tonight I'm killing gods
    I spoke a vow today
    And asked if god would come and play
    'Cause I just want to cut that fucker down
    Face me
    Face me
    Face me
    Face me
    Face me!
    Face me!
    None survive!
    Face me!
    Face me!
    None survive!
    None survive!
    The devil and god have died inside me!

    Absolutely love this song! Kinda felt the same way when my dad committed suicide. I wrote a song for my band, Dreamstate Illusion called The Hourglass, although this song was from a different perspective. I wrote it from my perception of his mindset in his psychological downfall, as opposed to the way I was feeling about his death. I hadn’t seen him for a long time, so this was my way of personally putting closure on the matter and laying him to rest. Certainly not as heavy as this composition, but still as deeply emotional.

      Jonathan Persson it really wasn’t though. It had as many heavy moments as Ire and not far behind Atlas and Deep Blue. I feel like people are so against new sounds that they don’t like anything that isn’t what the first couple albums sounded like. Breakdown of Sanity disbanded because of this shit, they didn’t want to deal with the push and pull of “if you sound too much like your old selves you’re generic and if you stray from what you used to sound like you are a sellout or you went mainstream.” I hate that mentality. I’m not saying that’s what you were saying by saying it’s rock, I’m just saying some people take that way too far. Reverence is my second favorite album of theirs behind Horizons and I don’t understand the hate
