This well of souls is all dried up by the fire of crippling pain
Your system breaks
Decrease of blood to the brain, Eyes turn faint
As your spirit becomes weak
Courage has lost this will to fight
As your light becomes dim, unconsciousness begins to set in
What’s the point of living when you live in pain?
I don’t want to die here, I feel fine
I don’t want to die here, I feel fine, take my hand
What’s the use in crying when the tears are gone?
I don’t want to die here, I feel fine
I don’t want to die here, I feel fine, take my hand
Why is there tomorrow when you will be gone?
I don’t want to die here, I feel fine
I don’t want to die here, I feel fine, take my hand
Soon the medication will be kicking in
You’ll be gone forever, I feel fine
You’ll be gone forever, I feel fine, Please don’t go…
Toronto band Respire deliver a post-hardcore tour de force on the largest scale possible, orchestrally rich and incessantly uncompromising. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 6, 2021
supported by 53 fans who also own “Watching a Friend Die”
Such a unique, crushing and yes, catchy record. Having seen them live recently can also attest to the band’s incredible tightness and massive tones. Love this record and this band. rube
