Digging, dragging, And pushing bone Against the stone. I'm all used up, Just ash inside. I stand up, bleeding out. In agony for far too long. I'm done with this. I'm gone. There's no escaping these halls. There's no escaping these halls. There's no escaping these halls. There's no escaping these halls. Scream. No one hears at all. In agony for far too long. I'm done with this. I'm gone. There's no escaping these halls. There's no escaping these halls. There's no escaping these halls. There's no escaping these halls. No one hears at all.

Pox. Disease. Flood. Destruction. Disaster. Fear. Deception. Take sides. Stomp. Crush. Pox. Disease. Flood. Destruction. Disaster. Fear. Deception. Take sides. Stomp. Crush.

Drops of red in the dirt, Twenty days in the hole, Total arrest of my body. I fell asleep. I can't remember a thing. Wake up. Pain in my chest. Lungs lurching, inhaling This smoke stack, Boiled, burnt, black blood of the Earth. Drops of red in the dirt, Twenty days in the hole. Complete yet fractioned, Quartered then sewn anew. They face me cutting through My gaze that didn't get to see. You're killing us, We disown you. You're killing us, Whisk you away like dust. You're killing us.

Light Song 05:41
I outlive the day I outrun the night Hoping he is waiting To dress me all in white And it feels And it feels Light Wade out in the water now with you my love There's nothing like the feel of it and you We outshine the sun We outrise the moon And if you'll be here waiting I'm coming to you soon And it feels And it feels Light Wade out in the water now with you my love There's nothing like the feel of it and you Lay back in the water black with you my love There's nothing like the feel of it and you Crown my love with flowers I crown my love with light To lay back in the water Dressed up all in white And it feels And it feels Light Wade out in the water now with you my love There's nothing like the feel of it and you Lay back in the water black with you my love There's nothing like the feel of it and you Lay back with you, lay back with you Lay back with you, lay back with you Lay back with you, lay back with you Lay back with you, lay back with you

about

This EP is about finding the voice of Halls Of Mandos. Thematically it is eclectic, but undeniably dark. It is wrought out of pain, despair, and anger. Yet hope remains at the end with the cover of Emma Ruth Rundle's 'Light Song', as if a glimmer of tranquility in a crushing darkness. It is about changes, most notably in the style of music, from a more traditional Industrial and EBM approach of the first two singles to a slower, heavier, and more depressive style.
