I hear tolling bells in the valley
I hear longing in the shadow around me
I hear a scared boy, spitting in my face
“Just because we’re rooted doesn’t mean we’re in place.”
But I hear it gets easier
Watching a good thing die—
That’s time spilling through the cracks in my hand
I’m a low spirit in a strange land
Oh yeah
In the morning I see righteous conviction
That I am someone who someone should listen
But by night I see a fool in the moon’s glow
Another Day not playing on the radio...
But I’ve seen what it means to be humbled
To be no one, or nothing at all—
That’s time spilling through the cracks in my hand
I’m a low spirit in a strange land
Oh yeah
Then I smell blood hanging thick in the air
I smell the shame & the anger we share
I smell the sorrow rank & unrelating
It’s been hard to watch the world as it’s ending
Yeah it’s been hard to watch the world as it’s ending…
& though there might be hope come tomorrow
It’s always just out of reach in the moment—
That’s time spilling through the cracks in my hand
I’m a low spirit in a strange land
Oh yeah
Birds eye view, so weary, whiling/
Overwhelmed by darkness but I’m trying/
Sky above the sun’s resigning/
Overwhelmed by darkness but I’m trying—
That’s time spilling through the cracks in my hand
I’m a low spirit in a strange land
can't believe it took me so long to find out what Midwest emo is all about. powerful, makes me nostalgic or feels like I'm having deja vu when I listen. all the tracks r certified bangers wish these guys could reform in some iteration worn__path
Easily assessable yet musically interesting and satisfying. Really like the "chill" in the air and softer melodic approach... Very solid musicianship throughout! Very much enjoyed! rcat
West Virginia country-folk singer-songwriter Trae Sheehan aims to find a balance between the traditional and the modern on his new LP. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 29, 2020
This instantly became one of my all time favourite albums. Every song takes you to a different place, the compositions are incredible, each element is blended perfectly. Even among the math rock scene there isn't an album out there like this. 10/10. Jack Hollywood
