You were once a worshipped queen
These days you are despised and forgotten
People sit you on their knees
They spit on you wholeheartedly
But if only I was allowed to kiss your footprints
If I could always feel your breeze of grace
The current is so cold and loud
I can barely hear your whispers now
I’ve been searching for ages and miles
Sometimes you’ve given me a ray of light
But people walk in circles and fall over the horizon
Writhing in vanity and hunger
Dazed as a child, I bow at your silhouette
My heart races uncontrollably
You’re my captain in countless nights without stars
When I die please hold me tight in your arms
The lonely, the wicked, the forsaken
They all ring around your roses
You always will offer escape and solace
But only to those who will take the chance
But if only I was allowed to kiss your footprints
If I could always feel your breeze of grace
Dazed as a child, I bow at your silhouette
My heart races uncontrollably
You’re my captain in countless nights without stars
When I die please hold me tight ‘till you leave me
Out of my mind, I feel when I see your face
Your eyes will burn my soul relentlessly
You’re my rock and I won’t be lost if you take my hand
When I die please hold me tight in your arms

It's so hard to pick just one favourite track. The whole album is just so magical, so special! It's like a warm shroud of enveloping, nourishing darkness.

I am in love. Wonderful post-punk/goth/death rock from North Carolina.

“Strangers” is packed with wonderfully menacing electro-goth—late-night horror movie music for vampire dance parties.
