And I can't listen to all your meaningless aphorisms
I shut my mouth so I don't spit out what I think about
Yes, because we're all living in an illusionary realism
I'm so locked, I'm so locked
I am floating like a feather
I am just drifting away
This indifference is an ugly side of me
I am diving underwater
I am just flowing away
No, I won't sink down a place that drowns me
No, I won't swim through the waves of my own sea
I won't be choked by a storm of despair
I'm locked but I’m striving for more
And I can't listen to all your meaningless aphorisms
I shut my mouth so I don't spit out what I think about
Yes, because we're all living in an illusionary realism
I'm so locked, I'm so locked
And my blurred eyes don't seem to see anything good surrounding me
There is not a single voice that I can hear to prove me that it's better here
I am diving underwater
I am just flowing away
No, I won't sink down a place that drowns me
No, I won't swim through the waves of my own sea
I won't be choked by a storm of despair
I'm locked but I’m striving for more
Nothing seems to work anymore
I've grown a thicker skin
After all that I've been taking in
My crust is indestructible
I hope I don't turn to stone
Nothing seems to work anymore
I don't feel like flesh and bones
No, I won't sink down a place that drowns me
No, I won't swim through the waves of my own sea
I won't be choked by a storm of despair
I'm locked but I’m striving for more
And I can't listen to all your meaningless aphorisms
I shut my mouth so I don't spit out what I think about
Yes, because we're all living in an illusionary realism
I'm so locked, I'm so locked
This album manages to mix pure brutality, emotional melodies, addicting riffs, and brilliant lyrics all together, and it works in the most beautiful way. razorfish123
This might be the band that displaces Metallica as my favorite heavy metal band! It's heavy and has social commentary, which are my two favorite things in music. flannel_bear
One of my top albums from 2023, "Ultraviolet" unloads banger after banger from start to finish, resonating with a passion and honesty that echoes CJ-era Dream State for me. Top-shelf. themeegs
Wife Patrol make instantly catchy alt rock with streaks of punk, new wave, and metal, overlaid with Bangles-esque harmonies. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 20, 2020
A powerhouse of a record from the Michigan metalcore stalwarts, full of sinister, stadium-sized singalongs and unbridled emotion. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 31, 2022
