On “Hell Is Where the Heart Is”, lead singer Nicholas Matthews and guitarist Bradley Iverson trade spitfire scream-vocals against hard-hitting, frenzied guitar riffs and drums. The lyrics find them despairing, having given up on the bright side of life and having nothing but churning, roiling hell o...
[Intro: Nicholas Matthews]
You can forget me and bury my bones
Because I'm burning out the light that's in my soul
[Verse 1: Nicholas Matthews and Bradley Iverson]
Believe me, I need this without a doubt
Sick and feigning without subtlety, my misery
Deceiving in silence, yet louder than sirens
I can't help but wanting more for me
[Pre-Chorus: Nicholas Matthews and Bradley Iverson]
Hopeless, it won't help
'Cause we're too gone to save ourselves
[Chorus 1: Nicholas Matthews and Bradley Iverson]
You can forget me and bury my bones
Because I'm burning out the light that's in my soul
It feels like I'm dead on the inside!
[Verse 2: Nicholas Matthews and Bradley Iverson]
I built my casket in confidence
I'm reaching out to you before I wind up dead
When these four black walls are all that's left
Leave me to my devices and I'll paint them red
[Pre-Chorus: Nicholas Matthews and Bradley Iverson]
Hopeless, it won't help
'Cause we're too gone to save ourselves
[Chorus 2: Nicholas Matthews and Bradley Iverson]
You can forget me and bury my bones
Because I'm burning out the light that's in my soul
(That's in my soul)
I'm stuck in a routine where hell's now my home
It feels like I'm burning out the light that's in my soul
It feels like I'm dead on the inside!
[Post-Chorus: Nicholas Matthews and Bradley Iverson]
Feels like I'm dead on the inside!
Feels like I'm dead inside!
Fuck it!
[Bridge: Nicholas Matthews and Bradley Iverson]
And now I'm at the end of my rope
And it's tied in a noose, yeah, I've lost all hope
Yeah, it's just another excuse, one that I can't refuse
I was born to lose, don't cut me loose
[Chorus 2: Nicholas Matthews and Bradley Iverson]
You can forget me and bury my bones
Because I'm burning out the light that's in my soul
(That's in my soul)
I'm stuck in a routine where hell's now my home
Feels like I'm burning out the light that's in my soul
It feels like I'm dead on the inside!
