lyrics

The Necter here runs thick and sweet and leaches taste from all you eat
but your needless heed to drink your fill has come from you and always will

To forget, a thought that ought not to flay your freedom
but to soar above the sore afraid, the past at last out of your grasp
Somethings missing, drink deep

The water here accentuates the bitter taste of waste
your eyes will lie as you imbibe again but see his face

The stomach churns and begs in turns, it yearns for more than necters burns
But still you let the liquid pour, and beg for more
drink deep, and forget

It's okay

The necter here runs sweet and deep, it sieves and leaves you heaving leads
In evening runs the channel free, and leaches feed in through your sleeve
Your eyes will lie and my disguise will fool no one but some will die

We free see inward, blind the eyes that see the garbage for the flies
you kneel before the healer here, to never sever, feel no fear
A song for the dead, there are so many. Drink deep, and forget

It's okay

Incredible atmosphere, perfect for long cold winters. Or perfect for those shitty humid summers that make you wish it was winter. Azfarat

Favorite album by one of my favorite New England artists. You know those nights you have where all you can do is sit still in the dark and stare through the wall? Now those nights have a soundtrack. Azfarat
