This is an absolute masterpiece of an album. Pure victory from start to finish. It's like the victorious ending of an 80's action movie.

[dudduddington]

Baroness has the incredible ability to create songs that are impossible to define in words, and convey just a strong feeling. This is yet another one of those songs. There's such a strong emotion in the music, and the lyrics. It's been a while since a song gripped me so powerfully.

[alesandroargyros]

Kill the lights!
There's something wrong with today
This isn't me This is on you
All I can say, all I can do is wait

Hold on
We are birds in your hand
Brace yourself
One in the air ten in the sand
Clip my wings and let me fall to you

If I have to wake up
Would you stop the rain
If I try to fly away
Open your arms and
Wake up

Take a dive
Fill your lungs with summer rain
Pace yourself
Heavy the heart steady the hand
One last taste of milk and gasoline

Too long In a lunatic parade
Aces high
One of a kind ten of a pair
Lifted up and crashing down on you

If I have to wake up
Would you stop the rain
If I try to fly away
Open your eyes
Wake up
Pull me to the ground
If I have to fall down
Let me fall to you

[CWojcieszak]

The drums on this song are amazing, Sebastian must love playing this

[ricksocialstudies]

It's amazing how often words fail me when I'm listening to Baroness.

[ODR]

Love the Fool In The Rain/Rosanna drum shuffle in this song. It works so well!
I think this is my favourite song on the album

[richy_B]

Masterpiece. Just somehow connects on every level. The darkness, the pain & the hope

[jaredpritchett]

Baroness's music takes me to a whole other world

[lucasgelati]

felt some pink floyd on this one. super great!

[Kingcrab]

This song conveys such a deep amount of emotion so well. I've heard it many times and it still brings me chills and can make me tear up.

[LJayC]

This song makes me cry. It's so beautiful.

[JimmersThomas]

Amazed to see people say they don't like the production on this album. I love Dave Fridmann's stuff anyway, but this I think is absolutely glorious. I think I was half expecting  Flaming Lips drum sound, but this is so much better suited to Baroness. A thing of divine wonder

[dsenunez]

Such a good song. Have to say, the drums are perfect, so beautiful.

[Linkles]

Can't stop listening to this. Its too good.

[goldenhole]

I don't know what the best song on this album is..they're all so freaking great!

[jasonrook]

this song was awesome last night when they played it at the local 506 club in chapel hill. greatest band by far!!! thank you for guys for such a great show last night!!!

[fabianestebanbeltran]

Since Y&G I was looking forward for more music so deep and touching, this make all the waiting worthy.

[sammohseni]

Absolutely incredible, what an amazing album closer

[badbernrock]

This is not just a song, this is a beautiful experience. Wow, just fkn wow.

[bux]

Great feeling with this song. I love how are you are adding new elements like the bell and keyboards. Your new rhythm section is epic. Loving the new album.
