lyrics
The Eternal Persistence of Dread
October 13, 2012
I was only a boy when my life was destroyed
By a nagging dark fear in my head
So profane it's profound, well there's no getting round
The eternal persistence of dread
The eternal persistence of dread — DREAD!
The eternal persistence of dread — DREAD!
It's a lingering curse and it only gets worse
The eternal persistence of dread
And with each passing year, how I tasted the fear
That so bittered my daily bread
And my youth fell away, but I'll tell you what stayed:
The eternal persistence of dread
The eternal persistence of dread — DREAD!
The eternal persistence of dread — DREAD!
It strikes ladies and gents and it never relents
The eternal persistence of dread
And now I'm an old man, but I don't understand
Why they call the sky blue when it's red
Cause the sun gives no sign it could ever outshine
The eternal persistence of dread
The eternal persistence of dread — DREAD!
The eternal persistence of dread — DREAD!
It's blacker than black and it always comes back
The eternal persistence of dread
On the day that I die, don't go wondering why
All my friends except one will have fled
It's more constant than love, yes I'm still speaking of
The eternal persistence of dread
The eternal persistence of dread — DREAD!
The eternal persistence of dread — DREAD!
It goes deeper than death, never runs out of breath
The eternal persistence of dread

I am a queer goth who works in climate. thanks for giving my soul an outlet for all this despair. I too dream of gutting billionaires... and would gladly drown when the flood comes for them. thanks for helping me keep the abyss at bay and stay in the fight. can't thank you enough for this album. alder-knight

On both Avalanche and the Whirlwind Remix particularly, Seeming manages the seemingly impossible feat of making it sound like there's 2 or 3 different songs going on simultaneously, in the best possible way. Such a huge spacious sound, and immaculate production and songwriting.
Also, I'm pretty sure Leonard Cohen would have heartily approved of this version of "Avalanche". <3 Conor Connolly
