“Angry Music for Happy People”

August Burns Red (ABR) is probably my favorite band of all time, and yesterday they announced that their album “Rescue and Restore” is being repressed for the first time in celebration of it’s tenth birthday! So I thought I’d share my favorite song off the album. It’s a song about losing someone you love, and something that most people can (unfortunately) relate to.

One of their slogans, as I referenced above, is angry music for happy people. Their singer started a mental health focused gym recently (your life gym), and as a band they recently organized and hosted “Heart Support” festival. I know it won’t be everyone’s cup of tea, but I hope some of you enjoy it! I’ll post the lyrics in a separate comment if anyone cares to read them.

    Lyrics: There is beauty, in tragedy. The heart will stop beating but the end is a new beginning. We’ll soar above the skyline of reality and reach towards a love ever after as we’re grasping onto faith to keep us breathing, a little longer for just one moment, with one another. This night is pulling on my heart’s strings.

    These feelings bring tears to my eyes! To see you leave my world, leave my side! Hear the angels sing! As they embrace you with a warm; “Welcome home!” Hear the angels sing!

    Tomorrow, the air will be a little colder, but I’ll be sure to breathe for the both of us. And the nights may be a little darker, but I’ll be sure to carry the torch to warm the hearts that never got to feel yours. I can’t hear your voice, but that’s okay 'Cause I can feel you in my heart (x2)

    One morning I’ll wake up to you. One morning I’ll hear the angels sing. On that morning we won’t be worried about the weather Nor will we mind where the hands lay on the clock tower.

    I’ll be sure to write your name in the sand where the waves can’t wash it away. Until then I’ll walk, until then I’ll breathe in your name! Never surrender the dream you had for this world to love, to forgive to make something out of nothing! I will feel you, I will hear you forever!
