We had a family
So I don’t understand why everybody left
You brought this on yourselves
And you all wonder why you’re so unhappy
Don’t make me choose
I know some call it growing apart
I call it never caring at all
After so much time spent you just walked away
That’s time wasted that I’ll never get back
I guess it’s fine go walk away
I don’t need people that can just drop someone
I don’t need people that could just drop me and not think twice
Some of you have changed for the worst
And some of you I don’t recognize
Take a look at what is left
The ashes of something you once loved
I tried to save it guess this is what you wanted
I’ll stand by and watch it burn if you wish
Cause I know it never meant anything
If you are willing to set the fire
You were willing to set the fire
And I’ll watch it light with flame
Standing on the other fucking side of that bridge you just burned
Symphonic stuff in metal doesn’t make its way into my collection aside from a couple of early Cradle albums. The orch here though just ads to how huge this band sounds. It makes elements in the songs more immersive. There are plenty of breaks from orchestration where its in deathcore/slamming brutality mode. While not ignorant, the songs never play with time or get mathy making it accessible and memorable. Came out 2015? Impressed. Mitch Mitcherson
