Last night your devil was waiting for me Out on the corner of Everyone street And just as a showdown began to unfold Everyone scattered their old tattered souls on the street Couldn’t be that easy But after awhile we won’t roll with your punches After a while your angels will leave and go home Kickin’ dust as they go You can search all you want It’s something I won’t ever be And this time around we won’t leave where you started This time around you’ll feel it deep in your bones Even though you haven’t yet grown old And someday you’ll return to your pile of ghosts Echoing through your head ‘cause it wasn’t enough To forget where you’re from You can search all you want It’s something I won’t ever be You can search all you want It’s something I won’t ever be You can search all you want It’s something I won’t ever be

It wasn’t even dawn when you found what was wrong The lighting in here is not the same Dodging the glass and the warmth of the blast You find you want out of this game And you feel like the deal that you dealt with the devil Is turning into something new You didn’t sign on for this merry-go-round And now the cards have turned against you Tracing your steps to the place that you left Didn’t seem like it should be Harder that casting your voice the right And god knows you’ve tried not to see And you feel like the deal that you dealt with the devil Is turning into something new You didn’t sign on for this merry-go-round And now the cards have turned against you Yeah they’re turning the truth against you Yeah they’re turning the truth against you

Circumstance 03:40
If only you had a chance to mend the circumstance handed to you Long hours of holding your cards while the bluffs keep coming through Time won’t wait up for your slow growing wisdom and character Create the change lest it all stays the same for the long haul It’s all you have, it’s all you don’t If you would just turn around you’d be halfway home Waiting for it to weight down your ambition is ill advised When push comes to shove will it be truth or love that will coincide And if after this you can only give wishes and goodbyes Climb up the wall with your slow steady crawl like a sunrise It’s all you have, it’s all you don’t If you would just turn around you’d be halfway home And when you return to find that nothing’s the same Now that it’s the future won’t you be glad you came

Hold out your hand, I’ve got something to give you Showing you how, save yourself this time around And if I am right, you will know how to leave here Starting tonight, you will believe your eyes And so as we arise feel it begin to clear out the sky And I won’t lead you so far that you won’t know which way to go It isn’t enough, that you knew all the questions They don’t ask you for your time, hell they just ask you why And if all your answers, they were all you remembered It takes time to feel it fade away if you hesitate And so don’t close your eyes from seeing just where the road turns to sky And I won’t lead you so far that you won’t know which way to go Pt. 1 And if I could only reply to that look in your eye we’d be half way across this divide And why is it always arriving just as you are leaving, it’s time that you thought of how Pt. 2 If you could only look me in the eye would we find ourselves past this divide Why is it always arriving just as you walk out, have you thought of how? How to save your...self this time a...this time around

about

Sigcell Minneapolis, Minnesota

Sigcell, embraces their
shapeshifting ways and returns with Transhuman, an album miles from the alt‐americana sound of 2019’s Pile of Ghosts but just around the corner and down a dirty alley from their electronically dense debut, The Poet. Drawn from the band’s many influences such as Pixies, Elbow, Smashing Pumpkins, and The Cure, Transhuman evolves the traditions of alt, psych, and prog rock. ... more
