The True Beast

All Shall Perish

I creep into you fiending your
Pleasure coming next mine
Abandoned wounds are bleeding
Rotting ignorance becomes bliss
My mind is searching
My mind is Fighting
My mind is thoughtless
Now
Your hear it?
You hear the torture
I'm on my knees
Begging your body
To wither
Don't you ignite me
This is not your time
It takes hold
This image of rapture infection you
Whole
Stripped, Stripped to the bone
Devoured for solace a place we both
Know
A door opens to show a menace
Its primal justice for this vile crime
So slowly she devours
(slave)
My perfect utterance
(Decays)
Disown this penance away
(away)
For now it's on me
I could not see past fury
Maintained the true beast
My instincts rupture and the motive
Has no theme
Now look into these eyes
And see the end of time
It takes hold this image of rapture
Infecting you whole
Stripped, stripped to the bone
Devoured for solace a place we both
Know.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
