Lyrics:
Dear desolation:
I wasn’t myself for months and nobody noticed
I wasn’t myself for years and nobody cared
But when the past isn’t dead, is it even the past?
When the past is still alive, how can it ever be forgotten?!

I always thought I’d heal one day
Seems I never did, I never will
Seems we live in the wrong time
For kids with a pure heart
But in the dark times
Will there still be singing?
Or will we just sing then
About the dark times?

Then I talk to myself at night
Another Lorazepam and Coke fight
My mind is begging for sleep
My heart begging for rest, so deep

Am I dying?
“Just a little…”
Is it blissful?
“It’s like a dream…”
I want to dream

You won’t find healing
At the feet of those who broke you
We won’t find healing
As long as we still miss the people…
…we once used to be…

If I’d had to describe my life
In just eight simple words
Fuck, I’d just say:
All I was afraid of happening, it happened…

So I chose not to choose life
Seems I chose something else
I’ve been alive way too long
And dead way longer than that
I woke up tired a few years ago
And never really recovered since
Just like a walk towards death
But with grace in heart and flowers in hands
Just like a walk towards death
But with grace in heart and flowers in hands

“Hurry up, you are dreaming!”
Everything not saved will be lost…
“Hurry up, you are retreating!”
Fall into distance, grey upon grey…

I woke up tired a few years ago
And never really recovered since
Just like a walk - towards death
Be the void you wanna see in the world

Hope you like the visuals we crafted for 'Heal Me'! Congrats to Harakiri for the Sky for another banger and I'm looking forward to more collaborations in the future!

[SkilledInMetal]

Suicide doesn't take away the pain, it gives it to someone else!

Freaking amazing song! You guys are top 🤘

[BlackenedSoundscape]

AND THIS IS WHY HARAKIRI ARE THE BEST BAND IN THE WORLD!

[xlp]

Niederschmetternde Klangwelten inmitten grauer und schöner Novemberatmosphäre! Und auch: Die Tatsache bleibt, dass ich mich emotional immer wieder in der Musik selbst “sehen” kann (schwierig in Worte zu fassen). Starker Song!

[olWinterlo]

I understand this pain, and know what it's like. I'm alive and their gone... years have past and the feelings don't change, the empty pit inside still remains, like the shadow that follows me everyday. I can't forgive myself for what I done, others have but I won't.

[ShishigamiLP]

Junge Junge, die Vorfreude aufs Album wächst. Hammer Brett mal wieder!

[paulezuckerbacker]

Wie erwartet ein neues traurig schönes Meisterwerk. Musikalisch und visuell erste Sahne 🖤🖤🖤

[madexofxscars]

So.. i've been a massive Austere fan since I was a teenager. Honestly... only heard Harakiri for the first time upon discovering they were headlining. Had been wishing I'd heard you earlier! But yeah... Seeing both of you live on Saturday was one of the most memorable nights of my existence for all the right reasons. Thank you for coming down to Australia. <3

[tovarishleninade]

I, ve been sick for years now. That first line of the song hits me like a train everytime. Thank you for what you do ❤

[blacktrip]

Great video and song once again! Just seen HFTS and Austere in Sydney and met JJ Matthias Tim and Mitch all great guys. Thankyou!!

[diedie_mydarling]

This is so heavy. Incredible video and song. Your music will always weigh heavy on me. Thank you

[MooseN]

HFTS always have the most beautiful, melancholic lyrics. JJ is a master at writing, plus his vocals are insanely fitting! MS always matches the tone and nature of the lyrics with his riffs and tones. They fit perfectly together and never miss!

[scavengergp]

Wie immer wieder ein Brett, sprang nicht direkt über auf mich wie bei With Autumn I Surrender aber jetzt mit dem Video ist die Gänsehaut wieder da. Ein tolles Lied, danke euch J.J und M.S. und Austere, ihr habt was wunderbares erschaffen ❤

[JSanguanini]

Masterpiece!
I wish I'd be the only one who can see yourself in these lyrics...

[Pascal_Wager]

Harakiri schafft es wieder mich anfangs komplett zu zerstören, mich im mittleren Part wieder aufzubauen und am Ende nachdenklich zurück zu lassen. DAS ist Kunst. AOP liefert soo viele dieser Bands die meine Gefühle besser ausdrücken können als ich selbst. Das tut manchmal verdammt gut.

[Antifascista]

The message of the song is don't drive if you're going to get drunk until you lose consciousness.

[joshuamartinpryce]

Healing has a spiritual purpose and destiny for the revival of self belief.

[pouryajhfts]

It's gonna be another f'ing awesome album 😍💥
Thanks To AOP, love you all

[beefbeefton]

Had the privilege of seeing live both Austere and HFTS within a month. And now this!
