lyrics

Can you feel the weight of things
On your ribcage, on your breath?
Can you now?
Seeping into your ideas
These stars so many drops of sweat
So many drops

'Cause inertia is forever
And that which flies, it must come down

Can you hear the scream of lead?
It's in the air now
Can you hear the muscle groan?
Leaning on your brittle frame
You feel the bullet coming home
It's coming home to you

'Cause inertia is forever
That which is high, it must come down
Your flight was always temporary
Accross the sky, you're crashing down

You see the last one snap
And we'll be strangers once again
True penetration is not of this world
You can live but not so fast
That you escape the weight of things
Pulling on your flesh
Give that vice another turn

Standing now in the face of judgement
I feel the struggle warp my will, I'm looking down
I've been holding back the sword of one thousand years
If this is what it means to live

Under a mass so enormous that light bends away
Here in the dark without meaning
Oceans of pressure have crushed into shape
ground into dust, but the hardcore remains
Here in the dark without meaning
I am reborn - Call me Hate

about

NERVD Paris, France

NERVD drives ahead with a look in the rear-view mirror. By no means stuck in the past, the band simply loves the sound that forged its identity. With roots in the90s, the quintet goes for solid metal that never forgets groove nor melody. Pantera, Alice in Chains, Hatebreed... Plenty of references, but NERVD plays NERVD first and foremost. ... more
