Since today is the release of Even In Arcadia by Sleep Token, today's song is Gethsemane which is a song from that new album. I'm picking this one as it's easily my favorite song from the album. What really gets me about this song is the one and only verse that it has. It's just something that gripped me from the moment I heard it. As @jcrabapple@dmv.community stated yesterday, and I quote, "The jangly, prog-emo guitar part before the first verse is something they've never done before. That verse (there's only one verse) is a bop.
No doubt about it, I'll be listening to this entire album often, but this song will be on repeat today during work!
I'm caught up on the person I tried to turn myself into for you
Someone who didn't mind the push-pull parlour games
Someone who wasn't always cryin' on the journey back
Someone who didn't feel the low blows either way
Thought I was waitin' for you, when all along
It was you with the countdown kill switch
And it was me with the blindfold on
