about

"Messengers" is about fighting through life. The struggles and shadows that follow us through every step of growth or for some in this case, lack of growth. It’s a story about being haunted by our dark urges, addictions, fear, anxiety and having someone in our corner whom we never listen to. A person who truly believes in us and tries to send us the message that could save us, whether or not we listen. In the end the messenger watches us fail; over and over, repeating remedies that haven’t worked whilst we point a finger at them avoiding our truth.

lyrics

Lyrics:
"Falter, from riddled dreams that broke your tongue
Exposure, daisy chained to the ones you love
And when what's empty starts to fill
A shrill of pain begins to build below
Tell me just how you feel
When truth becomes the thing you’re running from

I figured I’d be there
As the color returned to your face
Constantly pushing away
Denial has become your faith

Cries from your mother
That ripped through your father
Who lied to his children
To keep them apart

Fire!
Light the match to kill the messenger
And bury the truth
I'll take the blame the way I always do
To save you, from all the pain that grey brought you

They told you how to feel
Locked away your only voice
Broken yet surreal
The only way out is to run
Dismissing everything they ever taught you
Starting new again

Fire!
Light the match to kill the messenger
And bury the truth
I'll take the blame the way I always do
To save you, from all the pain that grey brought you"
