Red Mosquito

This is arguably their best album lyrically. What are your favorite moments?

"all the answers will be found in the mistakes that we have made"

"the world kept and spinning/always felt like it was ending/and love not withstanding we are each of us fucked"

"Caught the butterfly, broke its wings then put it on display
Stripped of all its beauty once it could not fly high away
Still alive like a passerby overdosed on gamma rays
Another god's creation destined to be thrown away"

"Hangman in dreamland about to call your name"

"thought you found a game where you could win/it's all vivisection in the end"

"The Queen of Collections took your time"

"living beneath a lion's paw knowing nothing can be tamed"

I love this one:

Swallow my pencil and bleed out my pen

"folded over, forced in a choke hold/outnumbered and held down/and all this talk of rapture, look around at the promise now/here and now"

yeah, that's a really good one

"a rubble of commandments in the road, step aside"

These are my favorite.

"all the answers will be found in the mistakes that we have made"

Glad you put these first. Really sets the tone.

The lyrics haven't jumped out to me yet, but I do really like the Superblood Wolfmoon one.

Living life on the back porch
Lifting rocks to make a wage
Every sunset paid attention to
Not a starry night went to waste

not one of the best, but I am a big fan of

"it's all in the delivery/said the messenger who is now dead"

This is so great

My favorite.

Probably my second favorite.

Firstly do no harm
Then put your seat-belt on
