Damnatio Memoriae

There's nothing
That you can take
When everything
Is set ablaze
And the effigies
Have all been razed
The winds of change
Bring bitter tears
The fool that plays
Upon your fears
But the monuments
Will never stand
I won't forget you
But I won't forgive you
The scars are too deep
To fade away
I won't forget you
But I won't forgive you
The silence speaks
The words that you won't say
There's nothing
That's left to break
The promises
That you once made
Were as empty as
Everything you said
The hardened heart
And solitude
This hopelessness
Bears bitter fruit
And the poison bleeds
From this broken bread
You can't take away my voice
You can't take away the choice
You can't force your way back in
You can't pretend to start again

Talk About Bones EP
by Seeming
supported by 15 fans who also own “Damnatio Memoriae”
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

The Birdwatcher's Guide to Atrocity
by Seeming
supported by 15 fans who also own “Damnatio Memoriae”
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.
