lyrics
So cover me, cover me
So cover me, in sprinkles and garnets…
Love, live, like the inside-out boy!
Live long, hail the upended creature!
A carapace of discarded pretentions
Lies hot and steaming...
A lie of omelette past, hero on the inside, villain on the out
From raw dough, unkneaded.
With flaws and kinks unknown... unheeded!
And yet the inside-out boy remains,
Ripen and ruts on the shelf.
Wipe up the pith and start again.
Fresh meat for old tricks,
The end is the same.
See this this inverse man-thing decline,
Long-pig rots on the shelf,
Wipe up the piss and start again,
Old meat for new tricks,
The end is the same.
So cover me, cover me in sprinkles and garnets.
Armour me, reinforce me with plate, fork and crust!
The inside it rots.. the outside is smiling!
Crushed into useful life-shapes, unravelling.
Undarned like olded socks!
And yet the inside-out boy remains,
Ripen and ruts on the shelf.
Wipe up the pith and start again.
Fresh meat for old tricks,
The end is the same.
See this this inverse man-thing decline (So cover me, cover me)
Long-pig rots on the shelf, (In sprinkles and garnets)
Wipe up the piss and start again,
Old meat for new tricks,
The end is the same.
Love, live, like the inside-out boy (So cover me, cover me)
Live, love, hail the upended creature (In sprinkles and garnets)

First full lenght album by the band, preceded by the two excellent EP's 'Fault Line' and 'Reflections'. In line with their now characteristic sound and influences, October Burns Black deliver a great collection of tracks whose spell is impossible to resist.
Classy and classic gothic rock at it's best. Dionysos Nyktelios
