lyrics

Counting the petals that I have left, like my options dropping one by one.
I don't have much of anything else. will I expire be my time is done.

I need to pull this plague out of my head before it consumes.
Rip these thoughts from their dying root.

Trying to grow in this dead soil of my thoughts.
This drought inside my head has gone on for far too long.

wither away, all that's left are thorns.
So bitter and dead. So tattered and torn.
Void of color and lack of form.
So sad and decayed. So damaged and poor.

I try to salvage what's left inside this rotten garden I call my mind.
I try to look up, but when I'm alone the shadows in my mind begin to grow.

Just Flowers kept in dark rooms.
I'm afraid ill die before I bloom.

about

Old Hounds Anchorage, Alaska

We're a bunch of sad sacks that write fast, angry, and heavy music.

Dedicated friends / musicians hellbent on aggressive riffs fueling cathartic lyricism. We have cultivated a close-knit following brought together by the unrelenting pace of our live shows and outgoing personalities off-stage.

We want to make you feel something. Rock n' Roll is not dead. Come bang your head. ... more
