lyrics

lonely cravings, vacant space
actually empty, mostly ok
no one sleeps when the
prisoners dream or awake

slow temptations, open chains
peace feels like a ceaseless phase
can’t compete with these
halcyon days

treat it with alcohol
pour it away
drain to intoxicate
try not to waste

eternally young
unlikely to change
you knew how to save us
so gently it aches
let’s make a mistake
let's make a mistake

we're not so unique
uncomfortably tame
we happen by accident
random display
let's make a mistake
we’re not a mistake
I'll make a mistake

celebrations wane so thin
actual anguish, where'd it begin?
it's so cold with their
shoulders here
bare to the wind

heaven help them see me fade
artificially feels so great
indiscreet like
invisible shame

seems just like apathy
warm in the waves
waiting to capture me
weightless again

our future so bright
it blooms with a flame
usurping the darkness
from all of the shade
I'll make a mistake
I'll make a mistake

let's cast out the light
so everything's gray
dynamically empty
we'll all be the same
we’ll make a mistake
we’re not a mistake
I made a mistake

unfazed by the high
you’ve washed it away
so happy we’re filthy
it's such a cliche
I made a mistake
I made a mistake

farewell to your world
in love with disgrace
don’t call us an ambulance
sorry I made
another mistake
I’m not a mistake
I made a mistake

This album is a masterpiece, and one of the finest exemplars of the genre. This is catharsis without a perfect cure, but profound in its journey and eloquence. Jim Payne

I'm so happy genCAB is back. The title-track is quite different from the older sound, but not in a bad way. Loving it! Magnus Isaksen
