Silent Planet | Nervosa | Track-By-Track Analysis

Garrett talks with us about Nervosa LYRICS: Look straight through me - look at the nightmare. Our past is but a dream that we’re trying to escape,[01] trying to evade to erase ourselves. Look through me and see the advent of our obsessions.[02] Behold, your child, perfection - a rotting shell of atrophy. Watching: Crowds like crows, we furiously flock to tragedy; observe the hurt then hasten back to our peaceful, quiet nests of blasphemy. Scapegoat: Rather die and know,[03] drag your failing body in tow - witnessing the wake, conflagrate the ready oil at the stake. Binging: The culmination of purging what our lusts have borne. We hoarded all the world to find we’d lost any semblance of ourselves.[04] This dying dance. I am not my own reflection. I am not myself, I am not myself. No, I am haunted by a non-existent Lover: The spectre, the ghost, the soul-starving host.[05] I am haunted by a non-existent lover. I was gifted with the vision, but cursed to be the witness.[06] I’ll be pale to match the walls
