Recently I have been mainly listening to...

Funeral For A Friend. A powerful post-Emo Welsh band. You have heard of them, you may have not. You may have listened to them, you may have not. But I love them right here, right now. They're not in the same league as other post-Emo bands such as Brand New (as if that was possible) but they are pretty sweet. Here follows the lyrics to two of my favourite songs from the 2005 album Hours:

History

Dear friends of this academy

Oh, Romeo is bleeding to death..

To see a friend bleed to death

What for, some kind of metaphor

That I can't see..

So I'll drink until I see it.

This sky will make me sick,

So I'll give up on you,I'll give up on this.

This sky will make me sick,

So I'll give up on this,I'll give up on you.

Archers in your arches,

Raise your fingers for one last salute..

And bleed this skyline dry

Your history is mine.

So you want to hold me up and bring me down?

Yes, you want to hold me up and break me down

I don't care for your sweet scent

Or the way you want me more than I want you.

I don't care for your sweet scent

Or the way you want me more than I want you.

It's all mine.. it's all mine.. it's all mine...

The End Of Nothing

Killing you

Might be the only chance I have

Of recovery

But I know it's so severe

As you know it would be

The punishment, it fits the crime.

So let's take this knife (Take this knife)

And run it down your chest

Does this feel like love? (Feel like love)

Here we are waiting

So let's take this knife

And run it down your chest

Does this feel like love?

Here we are waiting

The light looks good against

The bruises on your cheek

Another medal that you'll have to wear this week

The light looks good against

The bruises on your cheek

Another medal that you'll have to wear this week

Killing me

Might be the only chance you have

Of recovering

But I know it's so severe

As you know it would be

The punishment, it fits your crime.

So let's take this knife (Take this knife)

And run it down your chest

Does this feel like love? (Feel like love)

Here we are waiting

So let's take this knife

And run it down your chest

Does this feel like love?

Here we are waiting

The light looks good against

The bruises on your cheek

Another medal that you'll have to wear this week

The light looks good against

The bruises on your cheek

Another medal that you'll have to wear this week

You and I, will die alone tonight

You and I, will lie alone tonight

You and I, will die alone tonight

You and I, will die alone.
