Tradition Lyrics

So maybe I was wrong, I couldn't leave it dead
I never felt so alone I think I'm seeing red
We'll never be the same, I see it missing
I hate the way that you are but we're not that different
Face in the mirror I'm okay now, I'm okay now
Least that's what I'll keep telling myself on the way down, on the way down
Maybe I'm to blame, can't help what I'm thinking
Least that's what I'll keep telling myself but I'll keep singing
Cut down like it's all tradition
Heart rate, can you see it missing
Step back, I won't admit that maybe I'm broken, I won't listen
Cut down like it's all tradition
Heart rate can you see it missing
Leave it, I don't want to be that, I don't want to be the one left bleeding
But now I'm stuck tailored to this suit of broken skin
So maybe I was wrong I couldn't leave it dead
I never felt so alone I think I'm seeing red
We'll never be the same, I see it missing
I hate the way that you are but we're not that different
Am I worth fixing, is all I really have to say
Take in my perspective or I can find myself a way
Breaking down the structure of my soul until I can see
Everything so resilient, showing proof that I can breathe
Just know that I'll keep singing, I'll keep breathing
My reflection is all I'm missing
I'll keep singing, I'll keep breathing
My reflection is all I'm missing
So maybe I was wrong I couldn't leave it dead
I never felt so alone I think I'm seeing red
We'll never be the same, I see it missing
I hate the way that you are but we're not that different

Thousand Below walk a fine, almost illusory line. Deftly balancing atmospheric and airy instrumentation, thoughtful emotionality, and just the right amount of hard-hitting hypnosis, the Southern California quintet—James DeBerg [vocals], Devin Chance [guitar], Josh Thomas [guitar], Josh Billimoria [bass], and Garrett Halvax [drums]—descend into the dreamy depths of loss, love, and life reflected in art on their full-length debut, The Love You Let Too Close [Rise Records].
They first harnessed that energy in early 2016. After amicably parting ways with Outlands, the frontman quietly kept writing music. One day, Thomas presented him some demos of “these pretty sad jams,” and they dove headfirst into a collaboration together. Blindwish guitarist Chance joined the fold next followed by Billmoria and Halvax as the boys hit a San Diego studio to record. Rise Records became entranced by the initial output as well as the cinematic, self-funded video for “Tradition” and offered the band a deal. Handpicking the collaborative team, they finished recording with producer Sebastian Rizo, enlisting the mixing talents of Andreas Magnusson [Fit For A King] and Kris Crummett [Sleeping With Sirens, Issues] for mastering.
Over this rich sonic backdrop, DeBerg openly explores the suicide of his best friend and its aftermath on The Love You Let Too Close. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
