about

These lyrics were inspired by my friend, I was a bystander for years watching his relationship with his wife and mother of his two boys sway through the motions… Financial struggles, relationship struggles, the proper way to discipline children… Everything seemed to become an issue at some point or another… It starts to feel like this desire we are raised to have, raised to be a good person (hopefully), raised to want a family (maybe), once you have a family you’re supposed to want to “own” your own home… And every time we add a layer to it, we lose a little bit more of ourselves and we have to share the oxygen around us with more…
I see it from another angle as well though, I see it from a mans struggle to stay himself. We repeat our days seem to be the same, after a while all the memories start to blend into one another and once you realize you are racing time to get the most out of your life as possible you are already starting to plan your retirement and recognize the fact that we are merely renting anything we supposedly “own” and sooner than later something in our life is going to change again that we can’t plan for because we will have no control over it.

lyrics

His pain, keeps him true
And the longing he feels for you
Along his scattered poisoned golden life
His heart grows tangled and dim with every fight

Everyday, it turns black
And the seasons say welcome back
The longest shadow seeks the night
The venom of her kiss is his light

My better days have come and gone
Growing smaller in the mirror as I move along
And still my swill spills from the top
My lungs grow heavy as I drink every thought

Everyday, it turns black
And the seasons, say welcome back
The longest shadow, seeks the night
The venom of her kiss, is his light

I drank and fought to climb every rung
Choked on the apple for far to long
Filled my needles, removed all my chains
Forced the plunger down and fell with rain

Everyday, it turns black
And the seasons say welcome back
The longest shadow seeks the night
The venom of her kiss is his light

about

HALCION HALO Tacoma, Washington

Halcion Halo is Hardy Bluesy Grunge band.
We keep going, writing new material, and naturally subjecting ourselves to the struggle pursuit which rubs the frontal lobe of our ego.
Hailing from the South Puget Sound in Washington… we make our bead and bread and come together regularly to ritualistically beat the hell out of our batter. It’s a goblet full of heavy we offer.
