...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead - How Near How Far

From the album - Source Tags & Codes

Sonic wall of angst and yet beautiful.

Trail of Dead is a post-hardcore band from the 90’s. Great sense of musicianship, especially the drumming. Sources and Codes (2002) is an overall 10/10 album for me.

    Looking back in time
    Through verses set in nursery rhyme
    At oil painted eyes
    Of muses left behind
    I swear I know not why
    Those eyes have always left me dry

    She stands with arms stretched out
    Towards the mountains & the clouds
    Oil painted eyes
    Blind yet hypnotized
    I swear I know not why
    Those eyes have always left me dry

    (How near, how far, how lost they are)

    I’ve rendered every line
    Every contour of a muse’s eye
    Painted in my eyes mind
    On canvases of time
    I swear I know not why
    Those eyes have always left me dry

    Trail of Dead is a super underrated band. If you haven’t heard this album and the couple that followed it, I highly suggest you go and listen immediately.
