Life cycles are unwound, weighing the frame down
It’s always running to me when I am nowhere to ever be found
Light spilling over years of an uninvented pride
Stay blind and never die, I’ll see you tomorrow at the same time
Thinking everything will change when I close my eyes is so far off the mark, and now I’m left in the dark
In my head there’s a riot, on the surface is silence, who ever feels so
Settle and sink in, into the instant
Take time to stay for an artist to pay his respects to the hollow world
Meddle, you’ll never remember feeling dead, another illusion
Forget your beveled conduit, you would be a better bet
It’s all on the line
Chasing better days as a pattern unravels into reading the same page
If I could waste away, I don’t think a thing would change
A fire starts inside my head, and the deafening sound of collapsing will go unsaid
In my head there’s a riot, on the surface is silence, who ever feels so, who ever feels so
Who ever feels so lifeless
The clock ticks a second closer to empty
Settle and sink in, into the instant
Take time to stay for an artist to pay his respects to the hollow world
Meddle, you’ll never remember feeling dead, another illusion
Forget your beveled conduit, you would be a better bet
It’s all on the line
Chasing better days as a pattern unravels into reading the same page
If I could waste away, I don’t think a thing would change
The first step is the hardest to make
The first breath is the sharpest you’ll take
The next ones you’ll not be afraid, so step up
Life cycles are unwound
Stagnant, motionless, shedding life like a bleeding wound
I’m chasing better days, as another dream dies because we tried to stay the same
If I could waste away, I don’t think a thing would change
When will I end my stagnant ways

Not a fan of the new album but this Polaris album is just what I love about metalcore. Saw them live in CH last year and on stage they are amazing. If you're new to Polaris (doubt it) start here ! sachavonkarl74
Supplementing sasscore insanity with bolstered vocals and pop-punk songcraft, the California band are kicking ass and breaking boundaries. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 21, 2024
