about

Songwriter Justine Covault says,
"This song is about when a breach of trust between two people causes a blinding flash of insight. Sometimes pain can be very instructive.
I'm really excited about what The Unclean brought to this song. I told them that in my mind, it should sonically resemble The Who's power chords and bombastic rhythm section -- and so, instrumentally they channeled Pete, Keith, and John right into it!"

lyrics

The Chasm

I hear the humming of the bees
On a warm summer day
But they’ve taken down the trees
And they’ve taken you away from me

There’s a chasm, there’s a breach
I can see him but I can’t reach
There’s a chasm, a deep crevasse
A thundering river that I can’t cross

Laying on of hands

I am flying upside down
Instrument panel powered down
I need data, I need proof
But I don’t want you to tell me the truth

Laying on of hands
To understand
Finally be understood

Crushing needles underfoot
As we’re walking through the pines
But I think we’ve lost the path
And I’m looking for a sign from you

Grieving something I’ll never have
Never should have wanted, and I wanted it bad
I can’t come here, can’t see you anymore
I’ll walk the earth, heartsick and footsore

Laying on of hands, to understand
Finally to be understood
