Light a candle in the dark to see through shadows glow, I’ve lived here for far too long. Seen friend’s come and go. The doors wont ever open and the records always skip. A burden on my shoulders, a chip upon my back. Falling ever forward while wishing for a past. I remember the last night on earth. You sang me to sleep for heavens sake. A kiss on my forehead to wish me on my way. Now I’m stuck in between life and after. To live, to see, without breath. The true meaning of beauty etched into my skin. A warning to the unknown. That here it will begin.

I don't mean to be a "first albums only" elitist or anything of the sort since I didn't even discover these guys til maybe a year and change ago, but truth be told- the demo tracks are my favorites despite Deafheaven's undeniable growth and evolution into a broader sort of awesome. satangutsandchristcorpsepaint
