I think I'm losing my mind
Fear became the fentanyl
Hungry like the animal
I've been sleeping in
I see you're losing your light
Cut you into decimals
Drowning out the decibels
Screaming in your head
Do you wanna find the antidote?
Driving with the Holy Ghost
Holy death, the holy smoke
And does it start again?
I've been drinking from a periscope
Trying to watch my obstacles
See how fully I've been broke
And let me start again
Ooh
Ooh
Let me start again
Ooh
Ooh
I think I'm losing the line
The altar is inaudible
Dense and pathological
Capillary thread
When you run out of time
The soul becomes synodical
The weight is now phenomenal
And deafening again
Are you feeling like an anecdote?
Hovering to the hospital
Huffing fire and holy smoke
Does it start again?
I've been lost beyond the telescope
Goddamn diabolical
God forgive the prodigal
And let me start again
Ooh
Ooh
Let me start again
Ooh
Ooh
Now I
Have lost
My way
My way
Now I
Have lost
My way
The way
(Now I)
I think I finally found the antidote
(Have lost)
I've been lying to Holy Ghost
(My way)
Holy beds that fully broke
(The way)
Now let me start again
(Now I)
I've been sinking in the horoscope
(Have lost)
Love is never optional
(My way)
Holy death and holy smoke
(The way)
Let me start again
Ooh
Fear became the fentanyl
Hungry like the animal
I've been sleeping in
I see you're losing your light
Cut you into decimals
Drowning out the decibels

Holy death, the holy smoke
And does it start again?

8->9 having read the lyrics. Good stuff!
Currently grieving the sudden and unexpected death of the Love of my Life! 🥺 This song just got upgraded to a 10! The poignancy of these eloquent lyrics penetrate my broken heart 💔 like a tsunami 🌊 of pain & grief…?!

As a philologist, its the poetry of this song. So great as a poem but coupled with the rhythm makes the words come to life.
Georgia is a schizophrenic state; so full of horrible "stuff" but gives us this amazing group as well The Almond Bros, The B-52s. It kinda reminds me of uh, Texas where I have lived for 50 years.

Are you not aware that dissent is not to be tolerated on RP? ANY negative comment is relegated to receiving all of the down thumbs available, whilst the most banal of accolades are gifted all of the praise. Debate will not be indulged.

I think I would like it, but I find the album cover flesh crawling, so I've never managed to listen. (Trypophobia, or a variation of)
I thought this was Sylmar at first. Nice but the album cover is disturbing. (to me)

They are amazing live.....
I love seeing Manchester Orchestra finally getting some play on Radio Paradise. Their songs are so beautifully constructed. The lyrics and vocals often move me to tears.

THE ALIEN... the first song from Manchester that really sucked me in. I don't pay attention to lyrics much, but the tale told in THIS one really fascinated me. Along with the haunting production, a big favorite in my book.
been hearing there new stuff here a lot. Would love to hear "The Alien" "The Silence" and a lot of there other older stuff that is just as good. I love radio paradise!
