Affected by the expectancy.
Who’s opinions determine the course of the life you lead?
This can’t last.
A hold with no release.
What they want to see.
Tradition hitting it’s mark.
I’m wide open.
No, this can’t last.
I’m starting to believe..
Euphoria will never make a home in me.
When did I last feel free?
The same story of the son (who runs.)
Will be told again. How he held it in.
Now he’s suffering.
When did I last feel free?
Stretched thin again.
Relentless wishing.
A pursuit with no end.
The pressure is hidden.
Slowly building and buckling to vent.
The tendency being to define the strong as silent.
Though they speak of fear.
They hide a loss of innocence and a rolling tear.
There’s relief in conversation but we don’t… speak of this.
We don’t speak.
Burdened by silence, when will we speak?
Speak. It’s not too late.
I've finally got Black Line on physical copy and this record actually blew my mind. There's so much beauty to this album but also its so crushingly heavy and extreme in an audio sense, Respire don't hold back they just let everything go and beyond, amazing!! Darknight

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
