lyrics

The train is picking me up.
Your toes disappear into the ashen walk.
You sat there, hands pressing, you sat there.

Ripe antiquity scents the air.
The wings are descending on us to lift while our legs become one with ground.
Scream silent, we’re ripping, scream silent.

Her breath entangles us.
Shedding of skin, we all have beast hearts.
Mistresses of disguise cloaked in the night
Until stillness ensues smoke like fog backlit by the palest pink.
It is a place to melt into the earth. It is a place of exhaustion. It is a place of sorrow. It is one of my many homes.

May Our Chambers Be Full
by Emma Ruth Rundle & Thou

supported by 22 fans who also own “The Comfortable Place of Ripping Oneself Apart”

I love the light and shade between Bryan's dirty and Emma's forlorn vocals. There are so many layers to this recording that are driven home through contrast. Plus the riffs are brilliant and get me moving. I can't stop listening to Thou and Emma in general lately. spaceman2250

Tighten your pants and get ready for the ride of your life. From the first sample and loop you will be decimated—and hooked. This is perfect. JDMP
