Lyrics
In zero forty seconds flat
Took me straight down to my back
Cut my legs out with just a word
Temptations and violations
All fever dream inebreations
There's a sickness filling me
I see myself in shades of gray
Gonna watch the world fall away
If heaven is a promise
I hope it never breaks
I hope to find it open when I reach the gates
They'll sing "hail to the sinner"
For those filled with grace
Death ain't the end it's an invitation
We see ourselves in shades of gray
And watch the world fall away
Don't fall away...

From 2005's debut solo effort In Aurora to 2015's Easy (as part of the power-trio Noah's Arcade), 2017's thematic concept album, Dead Reckoning, about illness, death, and grief, and his newest, 2020's Summer's Gone...Gabriel's songs are powerful dissections of characters in desperate times or taking even more desperate measures.
