Spiders crawl on you
On your shoes, and on me
They spin their webs upon piano keys
And so irresistibly, I teem
For you, I could write one thousand symphonies
As I watch you be carried off to sleep by some lonely ghost
I ask myself,
“How can I be as happy?”
Starved for language and affection,
My spirit is derelict and pines for salvation
I celebrate myself, and sing myself, for although I am a broken person, I can find newness and joy in every day of my life.
I am scared of looking my inner child in the eyes and telling them, “I love you and it wasn’t your fault.”

We hope to perform with this band one day. Some of the best to do it! There is something so special and unique that we find in their sound; it is perfectly satisfactory. To Be Gentle
Toronto band Respire deliver a post-hardcore tour de force on the largest scale possible, orchestrally rich and incessantly uncompromising. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 6, 2021
