lyrics

Everything has become a mark I have to erase
Taking up the plain white space of my page
Blank loose leaf gliding down from the monumental trees
Whispering to me just do what you please
In the end
it all comes down to what's written on the stone
carved right through the flesh into the bone
Ask yourself
Is my truth just what my brain is brining in
Telling me that everything happens for a reason
Did you stare
In the eyes knowledge you can't fathom
Blind you stumbling through that hellish chasm
You came out
the other end just as simple as a child
And they dragged to a padded room to put it mild
When it begins
You will hear a buzzing from your brain stem
Share a troubled look with your closest friend
See the light
Think that it's more painful than you had thought
Reroute the vital nutrients around the clot
Roots won't take to frozen soil
Soak the stuff to soothe my soul
Branches hold a heavy load
Forfeit a few limbs to lose the weight

about

Mouthbreather Portland, Oregon

Math rock, post-hardcore, and experimental folk walk into a bar. The sound person only provides them with 4 drink tickets, because they are a two-piece band called Mouthbreather.
Dynamic song structures and time signatures with no shortage of distinct melody and thoughtful lyricism. Something for everybody! Except maybe your aunt who might say “I don’t get why he has to do all that yelling.”
