about

"Nearest Place to Hide" is a stand-alone single, originally a part of Ripcord Record's "You Matter: Part II," a massive compilation of 101 incredible black metal, sludge, post-rock, post-metal, screamo, and math rock bands. The compilation supports Papyrus (papyrus.org.uk) whose focus is suicide prevention. Link to support here: ripcordrecords.bandcamp.com/album/you-matter-part-ii

Dedicated to my cat, who was rescued from an animal shelter 11 years ago.

lyrics

A bearer of scars
Curled up tight and afraid of letting any love in
One year down and a million left
You were old and gray before you were given a name

I know you're sore
And afraid of everything
The love that I offer has no expiration
And I want nothing in return

Nobody held you the way you deserve

So you hide
You're hiding from darker days
Far from the pits you were raised
Far from the locks of your cage

I fear it might always hurt this much
The dark is always closing in around you
You'll always need to find
The nearest place to hide

But I'm here
Always here
When you need me
I am here.

Wounds of Recollection Atlanta, Georgia

Formed in 2014.

Created and produced anonymously and independently. ... more
