liminoided I still don't remember exactly how I found Barlow, but ever since, they've become one of my very favorite bands. I was in tenth grade when I heard Every Time I Saw Him, and it became the soundtrack to my tumultuous teenhood. They've got this unique atmosphere in their sound that's so emotionally evocative. Now that I'm an adult, I can play this amazing new cassette in my van, comforting past, present, and unknown future versions of myself. Thanks for everything, Barlow.

Flashover 03:00
Red hands hold my eyes It comes crashing, feign surprise Spend your last days on the fence Like you don't know I know Somewhere it does you wrong Feel the violent stares, too strong I'd cling to all you wouldn't say Still surrounds where you'd stay
2.
I long to hear your name again Won't feel alive til we're within She holds my head, I lose myself She sheds the light like all hell And still you live inside the seam And will you leave my every dream The light will bleed with hands beside you Exist just to remind you

Icon 00:51
There's a way out! Don't you look down!
4.
Object of... 02:29
Someone I know left that behind I'll stay at home, she let me go Once in a while he sat there with me Blanks in his eyes, no life around me Don't wanna go there without that sight Hold onto your heart, longer once than I Maybe now fill the hole inside Put it in the fire, more than once they'll die I got you Someone I know, always behind Just stay at home, don't know what I'll find and now I go there without that sight Pull that head apart, breathe that glowing stripe Maybe now fill the hole inside Put it in the fire, more than once they'll die I got you
5.
Sucko 03:03
Let's think about how good it's going to feel coming back to life Feels good to know you're living someone that you like But you can't lie your whole way down When you're earmarked for the truth If you lie your whole way down, she won't come back to you Let's think about just how you want to feel on the livid street What's dying in your life except for friends and dreams? But you can't lie your whole way down Just because you're earmarked for the truth You can't lie your whole way down before it's back to you NEW LIGHT HAS FOUND YOU!
6.
At Home 03:43
Here for tomorrow What's more than a day You'll spend anyway with lifers of pain Pray for Apollo Before something new Starts coming to you It's what I should do Stay at home in your car God knows where you are We're never too far Stay, remember the smile Still here for a while Won't you follow What's more than a day You'll spend anyway Just showing the pain Pray for Apollo For one run into For holding the truth It's what I should do Stay at home in your car God knows where you are You're never too far Stay, remember the smile Still here for a while
7.
Red Car 02:58
What has happened I had to throw it away Nothing but shadows at play So many days hang by All of those past pains, goodbye Nothing happened Remember life in her name Knowing she won't feel the same So many days hang by You'll never know how or why and from your car they'll ride home and in your heart they'll hold 'til the rest unfold
8.
Sister evolving immortalized She rides the comet to life She's sinking inside, sinking inside, sinking inside And now you see them, ten men around you In time you make up your mind The next hangs up her life She's sinking inside, sinking inside, sinking inside Dark purple blanket adorns adherent She rides the comet to life Sister evolving has died She's sinking inside, sinking inside, sinking inside
9.
In Line 02:15
Currents define the bastards I stood in line for Hastur Watch it go, with hands tied Couldn't get it back if you tried Now this is mine to listen And if that was our time we missed it In separate homes we drown in green With our empty heads in between
10.
Whenever I can The poison burdens my man When will I see you again? No plan I fall victim, too She comes around when I do and a quick shake of the hand The night is ours, and we can Oh yeah, it makes my life Oh yeah, it takes my life White lights in your head We'll stay there instead Can't say how we feel Can't tell if it's real Ten minute night A golden look in her eyes White beauty's hung up to dry, I could die Oh yeah, it makes my life Oh yeah, it takes my life White lights in your head We'll stay there instead Can't say how we feel Can't tell if it's real Can't stop what's to come We're spent and then it's done
11.
Ankh 03:28
Walls of future are promising Walls of future are promising Don't know for sure where I'll be When I open the hallway door and leave Don't walk away, promise me Open the hallway door and leave Don't know for sure where we'll be When I open the hallway door and leave To keep the dream undead, alive This life is not mine
12.
If You Do 02:07
What to do when I say I have to move Heads turn away, couldn't be too soon and it's true, it's you Like you, it's true So far away, something's got to change Each growing thorn at the sight of your name and it's true, it's you Like you, it's true
13.
It's a gash and a half In the heart Don't know when, don't know where You'll impart Tell me what you want me to do Tell me where I'll go when it's through Magdalene in the hall Breathe it in Heavy breath, blessed in mouth Fire white skin Tell me what you want me to do Tell me where I'm going with you Just tell me when Just tell me when Just tell me when Just tell me when...
14.
Sodom Star 02:55
Once I went to bed Oh yeah, he's in my head I saw the sodom star I saw inside my car When he rose to fame Oh yeah, he knew my name and when he goes to sleep I know he thinks of me
