Red Hands Intro

Buried is my faith, six feet under ground
Something's telling me that I should catch a train down south
As I'm staring at that door
You never let it go, you never let it be
I saw a side of you I didn't think I'd ever see
And now we're fighting a hopeless war
And I'll just keep coming back for more
And you know that I'll just keep coming back for more.

This is the sound of a ship that's going down
There's a devil on my shoulder that I cannot get around
And there's one inside my head that keeps me gagged and bound
Tells me I should end this vicious cycle, get the hell out of this town
We live and we learn
We live and we die
With sunken eyes and heavy heads
We watch the world turn faster than our legs can carry us
And this I won't forget
If only we'd been born with just a little bit more luck
A little bit more luck
So give it up, you know it's just a game
You know exactly what I think so let me ask,
Why don't you think the same way that I do?
And I can tell a smile shines across your face while you're putting me through hell
We live and we learn
We live and we die
With sunken eyes and heavy heads we watch the world turn faster than our legs can carry us
And this I might regret, if only we'd been born with just a little bit more luck
A little bit more luck

We're forged in concrete basements
Making lots of noise
We're all full of ghost stories
A bunch of rambling boys
Ain't got a lot of money
We were brought up on the blues
We sing our songs about lost love
But we don't have love to lose
But if you try real hard, you can feel it in your bones
That this place we're at, we can almost call it home, but the wind still blows, it still chills our sorry souls
The saddest story ever told
And if you're looking for us we'll be headed for the coast
Remembering days that passed us by and which songs we loved the most
A thousand wasted miles, a thousand locked up doors
But don't you know and expiry date just means an even score?

Been following Somos for many years, feeling that they had an opus in them...well, here it is. Driving pop-punk sensibilities lend an upbeat tone in contrast to the grim lyrical proceedings, and they absolutely pull it off. Evocative music that's been on repeat for me all month long. RIP, Phil
