lyrics

Forgotten episodes penetrate sleep
For a long time after the fact
And dreams will stalk the subsequent day
For even longer than that
The situations of your dreams
Will probably be forgotten
But the characters that your brain describes
Will creep into all that will happen

And recovery is not permitted

You’ll list things in an important order
When your observations appear
To be erroneously meditative
To be shrinking and unclear
There is a sequence to be found
But it doesn’t mean anything
It lies in wait for membership
For the substance that you could bring

But recovery is not permitted

It doesn’t even form a language
You’ll stumble across it soon
A sharp pain in your ankle
And you think you’ll be over it soon

But recovery is not permitted

Very good goth industrial that incorporates influences from Mind-era Ministry, Throbbing Gristle, Tear Garden, and Skinny Puppy. Eve McGivern

The Crux & Remixes (double EP)
by This Is Radio Silence

supported by 5 fans who also own “Recovery is not Permitted”

Artistic brilliance from beginning to end. If you can listen to the extended version of The Crux and not be swept away by its majesty, then we have nothing in common. TIRS are no ordinary rock band. Years of making atmospheric soundscapes and dark ambience with catchy guitar solos and bleak, soulful lyrics brought us to this point xx captaindamaged
