lyrics

cannot take this pressure
will not fake this stature
cannot brave delay
will not burden this shoulder

can't feel my breath

new life, mistake, prevent my pain

still, cold,
find your way begun within the dance of the dead
want's to deny that he can't be with life
he's still

still, cold

still, cold, no life
softly remains
too old to alter
but too young to stay

still holding life
softer decay
the fences are painted with fresh graves

still, cold,
find your way begun within the dance of the dead
want's to deny that he can't be with life
he's still

he's -- still -- , -- cold --

can't feel my breath

will not take this pressure
cannot fake this stature
will not preserve these days
his are only pain - you know -

will to be a mother lost, now
fresh must be my own life spawn
free to be my own deliver-er-can't
____ breathe or feel must will it

cross to the shore

still, cold, denser than life
slowly decease and decay
made from the peace of new life
born feeding the dance of the dead

about

Second Species

Formed in 2003 from the ashes of Bitter Disposition and Choke, Second Species was a band to rule all other bands. The rock was hell and the fierce was thunder. Now ashes again, these are our scattered remains.
