Break is about how I actually used to be extremely jealous of the attention my little brother would get from my parents and how i used to torture him in a shallow attempt to raise my self-esteem. as soon as i got old enough to realize how awful it was, i stopped, but i'll always feel guilty about not being a better brother to him, and having to ask him for any help ever always feels unjustified because of the pain i caused him in the past, even though right now it feels like he's doing way better than me.
lyrics
i'm not sad that you're still mad, cause it was my intention to push you off the edge until you bled. not sure what you wanted. but if it has anything to do with the qualities you've been flaunting, i'm not buying, so stop trying. i make a rude remark about your hair you don't seem to care. false reliance on your sticks and stones don't make you feel any less alone. i know that you don't know that. park your car, lock the door, then when you get inside look at all the useless shit that lines your floor. salt and gum, not used as intended. take a look at all the semi-broken crap that you have mended. am i there? can i be there? i don't wanna be a thorn in your side or a paragon to which you can't compare. i've had troubles with sticks and stones and the constant injury to which my heart is prone, but your bones seem to be fully intact. take your mixture for a new adhesive put me back together with my broken pieces cause i can't break you now.
Heccra is one of the most interesting artists in emo today, and his fresh take on the genre, blending elements of post-hardcore, prog/metal into it, as well as cool and weird production makes me smile aches
These guys are a huge influence on me, stylistically. Great angry vocals (shared throughout the band) enough twinkles to light the night sky, & some of the catchiest hooks ever. WATCH MY BODY DIEEEEEE aches
