lyrics

My failures, son
Can’t be out done
No, I’m the ruin not your light
Nor a grace but a blight

I’ve considered none
What’s said, what’s done
I’m the ruin in a life
Faith that hemorrhages light

I’ve broke my bonds
Enslaved these desperate loves songs
I’m the ruin, I’m the lie
Bound to your low birthright

All those saints you thought I’d pled so devout
And what you think you’re seeing here ain’t real
Those abandoned years, could there be more doubt?
Absolution, son, ain’t real

I’ve considered none
What you’ve said or done
I’m the ruin in your life
Fading signal in the night

I’ve broke my bonds
Escaped your love for so long
I’m the ruin, I’m the lie
And it doesn’t feel right

All those saints you thought I’d pled so devout
And what you think you’re seeing here ain’t real
Those abandoned years, could there be more doubt?
Absolution, son, ain’t real

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer
