We came with different motives
And now that we are at the crux of our lives
It is time to let the core of it unfold
As I feel the seaward gale swiping, cold
There is no absolute in day-to-day harshness
There is no hard and fast rules between you and me
And we shall feel the end of it once we thread our way through valley of despair
How blind and remote we are
We came with different motives
But the contradictions were not unbridgeable
We would have missed the comfort of our lies
How blind and remote we are
We've drawn our cold and mighty swords
Eager for blood and retaliation
But we were already dying away
For resentment is love in its blackest day
Cutting the chain of the anchor
Drifting miles and miles away
Then scuttling the ship, standing firm
On the deck, alone.
I watched the sunset with worn out eyes
Because of thousands years of no compromise
I will suffer for my vengeance, I will suffer for my crimes
When the red dies out, I will be just fine.

Revisiting this album today and it is just as powerful and demanding as it was eight years ago. Perfectly pertinent to today's pandemic world and all the other donked up messes facing us. This album reminds us to live... while we may.
