lyrics

It wreaks havoc in my head
Like gravel it all tears at the skin
Sustained in the moment
I feel this emptiness that I cannot express

No

Apparitions as syllables
Moving through the reverberation
Haunting vestiges linger
How can I compose my concentration?
Close my eyes, try to visualize

And if we all move soundly through this life
Then why do I feel so lost in this space and time?

Even if I could sleep
It would consume my dreams
I cannot contain the irrationality
Flooding in on me
It’s overpowering
Corruption of my mind
Has me losing so much time
A beast of my inner psyche

Dreameater
Why do you wander through my mind?
Defeater
Destroying what I need to win this fight

A mixture of chemicals, a matter of denial
Opening a void that leaves me divided
Coming from a place I could never make sense of
How can I escape
Something I cannot even understand?
Helpless anxiety

Even if I could dream
It would look down on me
I cannot attain the lucidity I need
To flood over me
Make me functional again
I’m fragmented in my head
I’m losing so much
I’m losing so much

If only for a moment
It still feels like a lifetime
Cutting through the fog
It will only win if you give up

It can only win if you give up
If you let this die (never)
it will just become food for the worms (evolve my worth)
Or thrive (decomposing
And become the visions you had when you were young (my worst fear comes true)
Dreameater (I won’t become)
Why do you wander so aimlessly, set me free (a memory)

about

Fall of Fathom Boise, Idaho

FALL OF FATHOM is anchored by three foundations: Complexity, Sincerity, and Djent. Intricate instrumentals are counterpoint to the lyrics, while exploring the limits of dynamic contrast. The music hits heavy, but also breathes.

The Boise-based progressive metal band released their debut single “Dreameater” with the new lineup on August 4th, 2023. ... more
