lyrics

(Lyrics by Eric Peixoto
Music by Ithomiid)

I’d swim but I’m so bitter that I’d kill all the life in this water
I’d win but I’m a quitter so I know I won’t go any farther
I need a lending hand but I’m a loser so don’t bother
I don’t define these words, they define me
I’m your least favorite author

All these things about me are true
But I’ll always be worth more than you

Welcome to being my last choice
You yell loud but your questions go unanswered
To me you don’t have a voice
Just a pathetic sound that begs to be heard
So run until you reach the sea
And don’t return until you have learned
How to make your heart beat
Because right now it’s dead and frozen cold
So run until you reach the sea

This hate you have grown
Did not appear suddenly
It’s only now being shown
But it’s always been inside of me

I hope you know
You make me want to go far away from here

Now you’ll only catch my eyes
If by surprise

Welcome to being my last choice
You yell loud but your questions go unanswered
To me you don’t have a voice
Just a pathetic sound that begs to be heard
So run until you reach the sea
And don’t return until you have learned
How to make your heart beat
Because right now it’s dead and frozen cold
So run until you reach the sea

I heard secondhand that you got there
And all the mermaids couldn’t find a reason to care
Where your heart should be they found an empty space
They tried to put good in you, but it proved to be too late

So you ran and you reached the sea
And now you have the nerve to come and return
Without a heartbeat
The disappointment you cause I don’t deserve
So now stay far away from me

Ithomiid Minneapolis, Minnesota

Melodic punk rock meets the aggression of metal. Introspective and reflective lyrics pulsate between clean and aggressive vocals, backed with a progressive hybrid of fast paced punk and dark heavy hitting metal music.
