lyrics

Smoothly, we could all drown, without knowing. Unheard of.
Coloring, is not enough. Stay lucid, for me.

This is an ad for someone I know who can put me to sleep.
Take my dreams and hold them often, away from me.
Hold, my eyes open.

Falling, apart and it seems, we keep choking. We can't breathe.
Holding, as we still burn, shedding ashes, spreading ourselves.

This is a cry for help I know that you can hear me.
How can you help me with the color bleeding out of your face?
Hold, my eyes open.

They're going to take me again why don't you believe me?
I can't explain it but I know they came in right through the door.
Open, my eyes again.

Somebody help me get me out of my bed,
because (???).
Am i better yet?

about

Black Mesa Bellingham, Washington

Black Mesa was originally formed by guitarist/vocalists Andrew and Adrian in fall 2011. Early in 2012, bassist Rowan was added. Finally, in the spring, after a lengthy search, Derek joined on drums.

The idea of the band is that the music should not be forced into a specific sound, allowing each song to be created depending on how the band feels at any given time.
