Lyrics
I hope you still have a hideaway for me
Under the mountain floating on the sea
Swear I saw an island there
washed away by a temporary stream
I hope it still flows back to me
This haven has two faces
one is to create and one is to replace it
A forest I can fade in
with roots you’ll never see flowing back to me
So they flooded it
Destroyed everything
Ripped the mountain out
Sank into the sea
Roots paralyzed by the salt
A horizon line crashing over me
I hope you still have a hideaway for me
(a hideaway for me)
Under the mountain floating on the sea
(floating on the sea)
Swear I saw an island there
washed away by a temporary stream
I hope it still flows back to me
I counter the current now
It’s destined to turn somehow
I watch as it flows backwards to me
No wake and no shelter
We are eroded
I remember
Haven has two faces
One is to create and one is to replace it
(in the wake of)
A harbor I can fade in
Something fabricated
So close I can taste it
All flowing back to me
I hope you still have a hideaway for me
Under the mountain floating on the sea
Swear I saw an island there
washed away by a temporary stream
I hope it still flows back to me

3:20 her singing fading into the scream was everything i wanted.

[frutistajunkie]

This is taking me back to their humble beginnings, it’s like hearing from an old friend again ❤

[ItsMarkWeller]

Now THIS is spiritbox, it feels like their earlier stuff that has matured, It might just be the guitar tone but this proper gives me The Mara Effect/belcarra vibes. LOVE IT.

[asmrin]

Definitely has "Mara" vibes, love it!

[TheMintz]

I need Courtney to do a live one take performance of this

[SunsetAlgorithm]

That high note transition into a scream @3:19 is everything I love about Spiritbox. Seamless, flawless emotion

[ryanj]

That melodic scream into a full scream at about 3:18 is just a thing of beauty. 😭

[grabarcnr]

Courtney's vocal fry is otherworldly.

Having it showcase in this made it one of my favourite songs immediately.

[Kabinbr]

this is the best song in the album, not even open to debate, this song is crazy

[SymphonicSultrix]

this is exactly how you write a beautiful but heavy song

[LenaLuna]

"I counter the current now
It's destined to turn somehow
I watch as it flows backwards to me" Core music memory, right there. So beautiul.

[snekburrito]

Genuinely, the best Spiritbox song I have ever heard. Absolutely gorgeous both sonically and lyrically.

[Linnns]

3:18 THIS PART SENDS ME TO ANOTHER DIMENSION

[Superstorm]

Best track on the album in my opinion, everything from vocals to instrumental is absolutely top notch. Amazing album form an amazing band. Probably the best modern metal band right now.

[francescofabbri]

*TRUST FALL* COMBINED WITH *THE MARA EFFECT PT.1*

IS IT A DREAM? 🔥

[jwspitz]

I got the CD a couple days early and the only CD player I have is in my car, so when I heard 3:18 for the first time I literally had to pull over and rewind it because it was so unbelievably good

[Tresla]

I can't get enough of this. Back to the roots!

[Jakercut]

3:15 razorblade eyes.

the best song on the album, and probably the best song they've ever made.

[cwill]

This is one of those songs that just feels nostalgic.

[sandpitturtle]

The build to the moment at 3:21 is just phenomenal and it hits so hard it makes me tear up. THAT is heavy. I like how she doesn’t transition to the scream immediately as it kicks in, it’s all gradual, the guitar starts to swarm in and it’s like she’s trying her hardest to hold onto the note but she can’t help but be pulled into the scream. Amazing. 10/10.
