Help me father
I'm drowning in your sea
I feel their anger
Closing in on me
Calling Father
My world has ceased to turn
Their doubt grows stronger
Will they ever learn the truth
Always
Searching for ground
Inside my mind
We've seen this all before
Intentions led astray
No one else to turn too
Return to us someday
Bleeding our emotions
And fighting tears of pain
The issue is misguided
Foundations swept away
Falling away

I LOVE Iris and have every one of their albums.
This, for me, is their best album ever.
The only niggle I have is the mastering of album. There are electronic artifacts in a few of the tracks and the ticks in "Third Strike" move in a out of time with the beat. It's a real shame because it takes away from what would otherwise be a perfect album. jonmp
On their 10th record, the Glasgow-based group serves up more wonderfully menacing, gothy synthpop, perfect for dungeon dancing. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 19, 2023
The Italian label Raw Culture is a force to be reckoned with & this album is proof of its powers, packed with subterranean industrial heat. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 29, 2023
