lyrics

This is a call for someone
To come and save me from this
Uninhabited body
There must be someone listening

I've lost count of the days I've
Lost by trying to escape
Slip in and out of conscious
Thought disintegrating

Why did they leave me?
Am I alone here?
Stranded on a bleak
Lonely, barren sphere

See shadows in the distance
Shout, but there is no reply
Long for the touch of someone
Who would care if I died here?

Why did they leave me?
Am I alone here?
Stranded on a bleak
Lonely, barren sphere

I thought I'd led a good life
I never stole, never fought
Obeyed the law as much as I thought I could
They came in night
And they broke down the door with a burning light
I was imprisoned and beaten and God knows what
Selected to be dumped here and left to rot
And in the end would I have done so much more?
If I'd been ignored and left to my own sorry life
I never did anything that was hard or worthwhile
Never volunteered
Or made a difference
However small

So please heed this wretches lament
Be more than a cog in an uncaring machine
Before youíre on a rock, your feet in cement
With no escape from
Your captorís torment

Cursed and forgotten and left to the crows
Stuck to the surface and endlessly choked
Suffocating in this dense atmosphere
Hating myself more than those who left me
Here

Maybe someone will hear
But it might be too late

Stranded

blackwing is still my favourite cloudkicker release but subsume sure is up there. I think I prefer the original to the remaster honestly (it's been a while though, I'll have to listen again soon) katsumashi

Just gave the vinyl a spin and I just wanted to thank the powers that be for pressing this release. It’s beautiful and an absolute classic, start to finish. My most played release on Spotify for the last handful of years, and now I have it in my physical collection. 💚 Calvin McRoy
