First period, first day, 2nd floor, 3rd door down, I’m ready now, to get this year over with. No music, just a dirty blue hoodie and a messenger bag full of useless shit.
Destructive tendencies, they run deep through me.
Someone told me life’s what you make it. I guess I’m just making it anxious, and it’s too late for me to shake it cause now I’m right here. But I feel like this year will be different, like maybe somehow I’ll make a difference and maybe someone somewhere will listen. For now, I’m right here.
It’s always been up to me.
Fuck, I forgot my combination. 16-18-14? No. Fuck! I forgot my combination. 27-35.
Everything gets forgotten or I lose it or I’m late. It’s like something’s disconnected somewhere deep inside my little pink brain. Maybe it's just dark blue, maybe it's not there at all. Wait, I think my phone died. I think my zipper’s down. I think I’m gonna cry. I think a lot if you couldn’t tell, but don’t tell anyone.
The Counselor told me life is what you make it, I guess I’m just making it anxious, and it’s too late for me to break it cause I know I’m right here. But I feel like this year will be different, like maybe somehow I’ll make a difference, and maybe someone somewhere will listen. For now, I’m right here.
Running in circles leaves me out of breath. All I want is a break from the stress. This shit isn’t new to me, I’m used to the scenery and I’m all out of breath.
This year I don’t wanna play dead. The best way out is through, I wanna make it end. Fuck Temple. Fuck Drexel. Give me my paper so I can walk out those doors. I don’t care about a major.
Who cares about a major? I don’t give a fuck about a major! I made it this far, I just have one more year then…
Everything will be fine. The underdog always finds a way.

Romance of Affliction somehow makes an old genre feel brand new. Amazing. I would have swore this album was from 2005 if I didn't see with my own eyes it wasn't. SYSC takes everything good about mid-00s metalcore and brings it into the modern day, leaving behind the trash. It's a pure distillation of the genre with brilliant structure, pacing, and lyrics. The album ebbs and flows, letting emotions swell before punching in with some of the most intense passages I've heard in a while. rettisawesome

Even for this genre the sheer intensity of this album always manages to floor me. Might not be the most unique album under the sun but it doesn't have to be; the performances are tight and ferocious, the songwriting is dynamic and explosive, the production is crushing, it's just all things to a mathcore fan. napalmsatan
