tesseract isimli progresif metal grubunun 2. albümü altered state'in ikinci şarkısı. şarkı 3 parçadan oluşan of matter süitindedir. of matter bir ilişkiyi başlangıç, çatışmalar ve bitişi kabullenemeyiş evreleriyle anlatmaktadır. retrospect'te olanlar olmuş, fırtınalar kopmuştur ve altında sığınılan köprüler yakılmıştır.
vokalde yine ashe o'hara ağlatmaktadır. kendisinin sesine karşı bir zaafım bulunmaktadır.
sözleri de yazayım da tam olsun:
burning bridges as i cower beneath trying to salvage the debris my devotion tied around your waist, lest you fall no one seems to sense the strain, no one seems to know
burning bridges as i cower beneath trying to salvage the debris my devotion tied around your waist, lest you fall no one seems to sense the strain, no one seems to know
i don't begin to proclaim that i know i can't continue down this road
dwelling on what has come to pass no force alive will bring it back i would know
i can feel the pressure getting steeper with every life lost you hope that i won't see the light of day in time to come
with no conviction founded just judgement contorted based on lust give me strength
your assumption brings to a conclusion of no consequence and i refuse to play into your hands for your appeal
inadequate inadequate i know i know i know i know i've hoped i've hoped you'll see me
