we tore a bitter rift
in a precious gift
turned it black
we don't deserve it
we never earned it
they want it back
the wind is blowing gales
the battery backup fails
I miss the sun
I feel cold whistling through
the hurt in me and you
and everyone
C1 ---
I leave the mic turned on
just in case someone
says they love me
I leave the light turned on
just in case someone
is coming home
V2 ---
the boards get ripped away
every subsequent day
all falling down
the lies we advertised
suddenly compromised
and hit the ground
C2 ---
I leave the mic turned on
just in case someone
says they love me
I leave the light turned on
just in case someone
is coming home
I used to be someone
It's hard to be someone
when I'm alone
Tried to be someone
could still be someone
I'm coming home

Phewwwww that guitar/synth/saw/whatever in the intro that comes in at :28...dat's dat good good. So atmospheric with that digital computer-processing sounding swirly pad.
deathboy's clear, impactful, and brooding voice comes booming in...but...smoothly, gently - you know you're in for a good moody time.
I'm envelope in sonic goodness in my headphones.
Love every sound selection here - EXCELLENT choices throughout.
That arp coming in at 2:11 is so tasty; like literally, I can taste it...its like...i dunno...cucumber apple candy or something with a juicy middle - i know that makes sense to nobody, but some sounds make me think of tastes. In other words, I love it.
The overall vibe of this track stays nice and moody with so many cool little production additions coming in at different times, all so well done and perfectly placed (and mixed). Everything sits under the great vocals so nicely; so many things swirly around that focal point.
Loving the pained vocals.
Wow, this was friggin awesome.
You 3 should just make all of the things together.

Been saving this one. Wish I hadn't. Would have raised the bar. Did raise the bar without me knowing it. I fear I missed it. Teared up at this one. I just have something in both my eyes. This really speaks to me, I'd be putting myself into an echelon levels above I believe myself to be if I said we were cut from the same cloth, but maybe there's a few strands I can claim in common.

@anaezia is that a good wow or a bad wow? ;)
@anaezia Feb 2022
Wow.
@deathboy Feb 2022
@gm7 Thank you, mate! Dead glad you enjoyed it!
@gm7 Feb 2022
So many great sounds..and that build up is cool. @deathboy just great vocals.
@andyt13 Feb 2022
I love the sound FX so much! The intro is amazingly cool. Such great production! I love @deathboy 's voice so much! Great work!
@richaaaay Feb 2022
You three are a collaboration dream team. Such a brilliant wall of sound. Vocal delivery and the words fit the vibe of the music like a glove. The sampled noise at the beginning and end add a nice touch. Top notch production chops on display. Awesome!

Loving the slow build and the amount of variety that's crammed in without getting in the way of the pacing.
@unpronounceable Feb 2022
DAMN, Y'all. Well done. Is the song itself called mute23? There's great sounds in this and it's a good song too. I'm blown away that this is a FAWM track.
