Dog Heaven 02:40
There's no escaping something's escaping you Trails to the sky from holes that it's pouring through Struggling because it's what you're supposed to do Struggling with a mile of steel Ah All of your thoughts grown crystal, unchangeable Hard coral branches fissuring through your skull Trying to catch a signal from something real Pressed up against a mile of steel Ah Trying to catch a signal from something real Pressed up against a mile of steel Ah
2.
Childless 04:59
Well the aim was alright But you stepped to the side Now you think of the price And the great loss of life Unaware of the engine till the pitch started changing You’re already forgetting the whole point of the lesson
3.
Suffer and then die Clutching hard to the side Waiting out an upsurging inner tide With a darting eye And a mind Howling For another form of life Gagged by the fright That the air could ignite From a spark from the clicking of your jaw Sliding down the wall In awe At how they They have no minds next door

about

The follow-up to their acclaimed debut album 'Widower', 'Childless' improves the clarity but keeps the cranked, ragged sheen that gave the first album its character.
