lyrics

sometimes he can't see her through all the haze
she wants to be meaningful man she wants to blaze
just sitting in silence he's stuck in a daze
she cuts through herself and everything past is erased

and it feels like i'm slipping down this sliding slope and I just can't
stop or even learn to reach out to help on my own so I turn
but how can i help if i can't even cope to get out of this hole on my own
so how can i help if i can't even cope in my own twisted little world

she shivers cold to escape the hold
the touch of her skin it sears to the fold
i turn and i burn as she fights this
afraid of the fall she's breathless

she says she's a fire that consumes with greed
but she shimmers with wanting lighting up with need
she aches to be alive but she's breathless
she's burning up inside and she's breathless

in one second she burns too easy
no not again as she breathes in deeply
enough as it is she blisters to his touch
breathless and cold well it's just all too much

That devastating and frightening atmosphere is mesmerizing. Probably the only DWIFH album I fell in love with. Expiring Time, The Unclean, Threadbare, Downpour, At Rest - these all are my favorites. Val Levitsky

Yep, it definitely has that Doubting Thomas / Skinny Puppy vibe with the programming and samples (though the vocals/lyrics are a little more straightforward and have their own flavor. Absolutely worth a spin. Jean-Paul DuQuette

Eyes On Backwards
by Dead When I Found Her

supported by 9 fans who also own “Breathless”

This album should be ranked very high in ranks of latest industrial albums, because it just crushes the competition. THIS is how it's done people. Menacing vocals, pounding drums and haunting electronics have no mercy on your ears and leave you with not one second of peace. Play this loud and do people around you a service. FLESH MECHANIC
