    Pry the darkness from my eyes.
    Divided, let the light seep in.
    Trees devoid of branches, and hollow hives,
    Endless black and empty beds.
    It's not the same, something's changed.
    I never used to be able to see past the trees.
    A thousand unfamiliars are lying thick on the air and I can't breathe.
    Is our skin to keep the world out or our bodies in?
    This doesn't look like home.
    Is our skin to keep the world out or our bodies in?
    I'll tear apart the town then sleep, and sleep alone.
    If I'm a flame, I'm a forest fire speaking savage tongues as I emerge from the hills.
    I am an avalanche. I am unchained. I'm awoken. I'll unleash hell.
    So I roar, pin back my ears, and stone by stone I'll tear it all apart.
    I've lost faith, the forest's changed.
    My stomach's empty I'm feeling faint.
    I've lost heart, the forest's scarred.
    I hear no birds, just tv's and cars.
    I've lost sight, the forest's died.
    The brambles are bare, and I'm hollow inside.
    Each breath rattles like dice in my chest,
    Each breath gambled, unwinding til death.

    This song is about anxiety and now, with the echo effect, you feel it more. You can feel the loneliness. It's just perfect.

    • @LoganLovell
      @LoganLovell 7 лет назад +13

      I was always told it was about a bear in the wild who was facing all of the changes brought by humans urbanizing the forests and stuff. But thats pretty deep too!

    • @VincentGilmore
      @VincentGilmore 7 лет назад +2

      Yeah that was the metaphor used it I believe.

    • @TEKNorway
      @TEKNorway 7 лет назад +19

      "This is a song about anxiety, built on the metaphor of a bear displaced by a town being built on the edge of his forest. It's the one song on the album that doesn't “resolve,” which for me is a representation of anxiety itself. It's an overwhelming feeling of helplessness that channels through nervousness, desperation, anger and numbness all at once, and usually very suddenly. I don't want to glorify a negative influence, and it's my hope that by writing this, I and others can actually better handle it through
      understanding." -Trenton

      Because the masses are mindless, those like you and I and the "few" others (in comparison to the masses) who follow true talented musicians/bands like HLH are among the minority- but its an elitist club because we're so demanding of a higher quality of music for ourselves

    @legndofcorey 8 лет назад +30

    this is one of the rare occasions when, not only is the music and lyricism exquisite, but both the rock and acoustic versions are nearly incomparable in the fact that it's hard to choose which one you like better. they're both absolutely amazing.
    edit: 5 years later, lots of life lived and things changed, and it is still my favorite song. this will be played at my funeral.

    I love what they did to the song musically. The other version is great too though. Hard for me to decide which I like better. I definitely thought the other music video was better just because it was original, simple and powerful. I always find myself thinking of the video when I listen to the tune.

    I haven't ever listened to the version in this video until now, but I've listened to the album version so many times. Jesus this is giving me chills. It's so much more raw and emotional, which seems impossible after how emotionally charged it already was to begin with. Never stop being amazing guys.
