    Is this the edge of the world?
    We chased the horizon down 'til it hung beneath our feet.
    Now I'm drifting blind. All I know is we can't move closer.
    I've never seen the lights of the north,
    The constellations are so unfamiliar.
    We followed far, as far as this machinery takes us,
    To some imaginary place where the compass shifts
    And our lips drift to our cheeks.
    Is this the edge of the world? All I know is we can't move closer.
    Searching for some apparent place where floated needles decide the way.
    I'd dig in my heels but I might crack the ice.
    Give me some solid ground.
    The frost is sinking in, in my cheeks, in my chest, in my fingertips.
    'Desperation,' we name every cape beyond the last.
    Frozen senseless. Every day is a winter solstice.
    The view's a wonder, but I can't take it in.
    Sun, make canvas of coastlines, so I know where I stand.
    We round each cape to find a place to call our own.
    We round each cape to find a place to call our home.
    Make canvas of coastlines, so unfamiliar.

      It was so good it got me off fentanyl and led me to meet the secretary of energy 2 months ago. A year and a half ago I was kicking at 3 am and this song with a bowl of weed was all needed to get through it.
      The parallels you can draw from kicking opiates in the winter and the themes and lyrics of this song are unimaginable.
      "I dig in my heels but I might Crack the ice, give me some solid ground" gave me power but tbh literally every line of this song did and still does.
      It gave me what I needed and told me what I could have all in one song.

    I fancy myself as a singer; this part is so fucking cool.
    The timing on the steps in the vocal run are sooooo fucking legit.
    I try to sing it an octave lower and i can't help but smile every time i do it because it's so hard to find really insanely original stuff like this to sing along with.
    the vocalist for this band is really really rly good

    The lack of screaming is why I love this band. They're able to play heavier melodic shit without relying on screaming like most OTHER bands on Rise do. Best bands on Rise? HLH, Transit, Decoder, Emarosa... Bands that have little to no screaming. This might be my favorite album of the year. Amazing. This track, Antarctica, and The Sower are fantastic.

      You must be new to the genre, also based on your name.
      You aren't specifically 'emo' 'goth' or 'scene' to like this music, music is for anyone and everyone, music had no specific labels on their followers.
      You've realized you've offended plenty out there. But I understand where you are coming from if someone dresses trendy and poppy you'd assume they like pop. You see someone dress edgy you'd assume rock.
      But look at Blood in the Dance Floor.
      I made the mistake of researching them... They appear to look metal they dress similar to BVB but in reality BOTDF is a shit band, they poorly represent rock, I'm not sure they are rock!?
      But yeah do some research because even the most normal looking kid can enjoy rock. Rock is not specifically built for emos and goths.

    Eh, kinda miss this sound now that the new album is so...minimalistic most of the time? This and Unimagine had more of a "fuller"/"bigger" sound to it. Like there was more going on and overall just mad great vibes.

      I really agree. this album is so full of layers, their new stuff is so 2d in comparison. I probably would have never been a fan if it weren't for this album. It's amazing, the rest is pretty much just good.

      Dwėsk Agreed. GD is one my favorite albums of all time! Miss those mystical Steampunky synths and trenton's soulful voice :(

    I saw these gentlemen in Las Vegas this past weekend and shook the guy on the far left hand. I complimented him on his moustache and we even compared moustaches. The next day I was in this mall on the strip and bumped into the rhythm guitarist and went to say sorry but realised who it was and started fan girling so hard I could not speak properly so I stood there making weird noises as the whole band walked away. Best day of my life :)
