lyrics

Taillights on the work road
The banshee scream of brake pads
Seized like fists around the udder

Woke up in a hospital gown
The hollow eyes of the unborn
We need to go back for my brother

You came because you heard, you know
Those long nights that we prayed for you to come down
And scatter all the illusions of
The simple men of this one truck town

Take us anywhere you will
(wake up in a petrol station
no senses, dehydration)
If the sentence is together
(the fumes of hot ablation
no trace but radiation)

But there will be no peace until
(no trace but radiation
the fumes of hot ablation)
We go back for my brother
(no senses, dehydration
wake up in a petrol station)

Guitar work and synth are on-point. Great vocal melodies, too, really help make this stuff stand out from the rest. Tal Kliger
