Lyrics:
Disconnecting veins in an effort to release my tragedy. All that we leave behind is misery, and my disease is a sanctuary. A curse that
unfolds like a novel, but I’d sooner slit my wrists with the first page. I find it hard to feel alive while my heart beats in borrowed time. The cadence that I’ve kept confined existing only in the black behind my eyes. Not worthy of a memory. Deny all grief and force yourself to forget me. Don’t allow my ghost to linger any longer than it has. Let my spirit breathe, I’ve finally found peace. Allow me to exist only in the empty spaces between breaths, in the margin of each exhale that you’re sure that you have left. Be mindful of the way speaking my name could leave a poison on your lips. The ache that binds your bones will be my parting gift. A grave unfit to bear the blame. Pale limbs like flowers to be tied in a bouquet that the soil refused to cultivate. To be born, to live, to die, rotting away. There’s nothing to be done. I can’t be saved.

[@midamort]

I swear to god Brendan narrates my life with his lyrics. They are always relevant to where my mind is/was in that point of time. Unbelievable band and great dudes too

[@Dreambound]

So good. Very excited about the new album!

[@lucaslvr6671]

Dreambound my man right here

[@DrownTheMachinesTV]

[@adambirangga891]

The best channel in the fucking world right there

[@HeyAbyss]

Me too

[@NikNocturnal]

Omg YES Counterparts

[@guyonagravitronmachinestan7595]

counterparts is my favorite band of all time, and always will be. everything they put out is just raw emotion, anger, sadness, and beauty all wrapped up into one. one of the greatest hardcore bands of our generation, hands down. can't wait for their next album to drop.

[@heyitsdrake]

Let me pause all this hip hop and get back to hardcore, NEW COUNTERPARTS RECORD WHO DIS

[@GreenGenerationTV]

melodic metalcore*

[@ethanwooters8074]

Hearing 1:11-1:35 a few times is what hooked me as a fan a couple years back. I just purchased some merch tonight!

[@ilikeheavymuzic135]

brendans always had one of the strongest lyrical games out there and thats definitely showing no signs of slowing down. also, i can definitely really feel the absence of jesses writing in this track, but not in a bad way at all. blake has brought a fresh new sound that still stays true to the counterparts sound. i couldnt be more stoked.

[@jebasu032]

Best band ever. This song sounds fucking amazing and i'm super excited to hear the rest of the album. Counterparts just isn't a band that puts out subpar music.

[@takingBackWhatsMine]

u suk at conterstryke

[@Rhysssssss]

clicking on this video i knew i'd see you here

[@pillsburythiccboi]

All I can picture right before it starts is "LEMME SEE THAT SAD BOI CIRCLE PIT"

[@bourdovalos1]

and when you thought melodic hardcore is dead new counterparts song drops to fuck with your head

[@stefan82010]

Have you heard Casey?

[@bourdovalos1]

kinda generic stuff didnt mean to say that there are no good songs anymore its just that the genre has nothing new to offer since almost every new band has no personality its just a recyclement of the same riffs, there are a few exceptions to this though one of them is the song above.

[@Mazzty]

Satan 11880 ever listen to Crafter?

[@thebadgerimpaler]

you need to check out the KZbin channel "Dreambound". Every week new great songs are posted from this genre from unsigned bands.

[@bourdovalos1]

been there since it was called faith love hope

[@DrewPSachs]

holy fuck. these guys manage to evolve and offer something new with every release while never betraying their roots. they're the only band felt safe getting a tattoo of because I knew they'd never disappoint. forever my favorite band.

[@wachooonn2]

Zachary SO FUCKING TRUE

[@theTylerMorale]

SAME my dude. I only have one tattoo and it is Counterparts lyrics. I just knew I'd never regret it, so I made it permanent.

[@earlklobo]

22.September can't come sooner, hyped AF!

[@gggbvthbvt]

Raise your :eggplants:

[@poptartboof3045]

Akptl YEEEZY

[@Metalmirq]

How was it

[@drumsno]

I see Counterparts, I click like.

[@lucaslvr6671]

Alex B I see Departures, I click like.

[@drumsno]

Born Infected damn right! Me too

[@alexanderbarnett7704]

Ironically, we have the same initials, and enjoy the same music. suhhhhweet.

[@billmod]

didnt even listen yet and its already amazing

[@billcosby5842]

This deserves album of the year. Absolutely phenomenal

[@ashbres227]

Definitely one of my favorite Counterparts songs ever. I love that it sounds old and completely new at the same time. Lyrics are amazing as always.

[@gus26_77]

I guess I'll never stop loving Counterparts....

[@oigolueb]

I'm crying so much

[@maxwelld23]

Lord Of Woe don't worry there will be more churches to too burn 😕

[@TheAlbinoskunk]

Time to listen to this song on repeat for the entire summer. TWFU was the soundtrack to a miserable summer in 2015 and this song + Rare will need to be the soundtrack to a miserable summer 2017

[@lucaslvr6671]

TheAlbinoskunk finally someone liking what Hundredth's been putting out recently, thank god

[@benoitmasse7661]

Disconnecting veins in a effort to release my tragedy Disconnecting = The Disconnect = TCWCU Veins = Compass = TDBHAH Effort = Sturdy Wings & Prophets = Prophets Tragedy = Tragedy Will Find Us Release = being thematically present in YNYA

[@ridleysomeliana-lauer5814]

Bud I think you may have thought about this too hard.

[@alexmccoy5721]

I would have never though that a band could top themselves, but album after album, it's like I'm falling in love all over again.

[@isaackauffman718]

they can still pull of unique songs while keeping their sound, amazing band.

[@rickgrimes5479]

I had the biggest shit-eating grin while listening to this. Fucking phenomenal.

[@theo2501]

this man narrates my fucking life, especially going for a bike ride contemplating ending everything bro. Its so breath taking

[@DiLL-PiCKLe02]

i feel the exact same way, Counterparts will probably always be my favorite band

[@spongeybob100]

Yo no joke out of pure excitement and joy I pre ordered this twice I don't even know. Messed up the shipment info the first time, did it so quick and didn't know how to cancel the order but whatever life is good what's up lets go. Album of the year

[@pdyorkshire5230]

With Jesse leaving there was a sense of apprehension with what Counterparts would come out with but damn, what a banger. They only know how to write amazing songs. Lyrics are as usual, poetry. Beautiful. Can't wait for the full release.

[@RickyBobby666]

🅱️outa 🅱️ra🅱️k open a 🅱️old one with the 🅱️oys

[@vature8479]

Oh my.... Can't wait.

[@unforg3ttab1e]

I needed a track from these guys this week. yall never let down.

[@palmdreamsgaming8725]

This is gonna be one hell of an opener for them at warped this year

[@Robindabank123]

Chris Swain it was absolutely amazing omg

[@alessandrogori7563]

Melodic Hardcore in a perfect form, fuuuuuck yeeees

[@tiedyeghost1693]

I really needed this. Counterparts allows me to release a part of myself that no other music brings out. I love this band so much.

[@dusted1337]

best band in the fucking world

[@jordanlowe3023]

facts

[@user-sm4sf4ff2i]

Cheer~~~~an attractively arranged bunch of flowers, especially one presented as a gift or carried at a ceremony.😊

[@MrNevajag]

well, the song is great! I was quite sceptical about new material, cuz all the main members left the band last year so I had a lot of doubts about future of Counterparts, but this sounds promising, raw and emotional, with cool lead parts here and there, just like Counterparts should sound, I'm really excited about new album!

[@ace-vi9085]

i see a reference to all of their albums in this song. this is a blessing

[@reckzn]

It's so good to see that they're still true to their melodic hardcore sound. So much love

[@itsnicksharpbro]

This band has been there for me for every up and down I've had for these past couple of years. If this song is what this album sounds like, it'll be my favorite yet.

[@DanCouncil]

Brendan's lyrics always get to me. Hyped beyond reason for this. I can always count on counterparts for consistently great material.

[@daneleslie9534]

This band is everything

[@NicolasSchaII]

This will never leave my playlist!

[@zatriario5133]

Super excited. Can't wait for the launch! Longlive Counterparts!

[@AnthonyChaucer]

These guys write some of the best music and lyrics!

[@darbyochill]

Beast. Each element works perfectly. Heavy, fast, melodic, chanty, provoking .

[@ImBaeg]

All these years and they still put out some of the best fucking music I've ever heard. This band is incredible, and they deserve every ounce of love they get and more

[@gavin_dively]

I chub each time when I hear the opening riff.

[@domino__effectya1999]

counterparts will always be one of my top 10 favs

[@nikitascheller5139]

A new Counterparts song is the perfect way to start my day💓

[@KainBoyer1998]

counterparts never fail to impress!!!!!

[@nomiSimonP]

This will be the record that brings them to that next level, I can already tell

[@Mediaboy132]

It blows my mind how whenever I think they can't top their last album they somehow manage to do just that... Amazing!

[@godmaker_]

this fusion between hundredth and counterparts. fucking epic.

[@MrPatrickbuit]

1:11 - 1:37 is one of the best stretches of music these guys have ever put out

[@homeinmyhead]

This band saved my life, and the new music is fucking amazing, thank you guys

[@John.Skelton]

I JUST DISCOVERED THESE GUYS TODAY AND I F*CKING LOVE THEM!!! 🤘💀🤘

[@DiLL-PiCKLe02]

what was the song that caught your interest ?

[@lingmarko]

This song deserves all my love

[@Wussel_Restbrook]

this is good shit, glad the new lineup did not change their style at all. one of the few bands out there who can never disappoint by staying true to themselves every album.

[@Mencazable]

Counterparts & Twin Peaks, is this perfection?

[@faridbaskoro9213]

Counterparts never change the perspective

[@btk5256]

I have chills god damnit !!!!

[@Tompkins316]

The scream singing parts have a very Crime in Stereo sound and I love it

[@PRLMotorsports]

Playing this album in our shop almost daily!

[@KingsInCages]

I don´t know how often I already listened to this since it came out but fuck this song hits home freaking hard. Shivers through and through, Counterparts never disappoints.

[@Rizz3n]

Holy shit, this is good. Makes me even more excited for the tour later this year.

[@CodyVella]

This is exactly what I needed.

[@irisvd2223]

I. Love. Counterparts. They never fail to amaze me, i love them sm it's actually not okay

[@Yando74]

Disconnecting veins in an effort to release my tragedy All that we leave behind is misery And my disease is a sanctuary A curse that unfolds like a novel But I'd sooner slit my wrists with the first page I find it hard to feel alive While my heart beats in borrowed time The cadence that I've kept confined Existing only in the black behind my eyes Not worthy of a memory Deny all grief and force yourself to forget me Don't allow my ghost to linger any longer than it has Let my spirit breathe, I've finally found peace Allow me to exist only in the empty spaces between breaths In the margin of each exhale that you're sure that you have left Be mindful of the way speaking my name could leave a poison on your lips And the ache that binds your bones will be my parting gift A grave unfit to bear the blame Pale limbs like flowers to be tied in a bouquet That the soil refused to cultivate To be born, to live, to die, rotting away A grave unfit to bear the blame Pale limbs like flowers to be tied in a bouquet There's nothing to be done I can't be saved I find it hard to feel alive While my heart beats in borrowed time The cadence that I've kept confined Existing only in the black behind my eyes Not worthy of a memory Deny all grief and force yourself to forget me Don't allow my ghost to linger any longer than it has Let my spirit breathe, I've finally found peace

[@TheStreetMedic1]

IMO Counterparts and August Burns Red are the two most consistent and reliable bands. You know whatever they release is gonna be golden. Love it

[@spongeybob100]

and Every Time I Die

[@olipimley4062]

Every Time I Die are the most consistent band in the world.

[@beeftitan38]

Truuuuuu

[@silentcurrents]

Don't forget about Architects, Northlane, The plot in you, silent planet, Fit for a king, and The Devil Wears Prada....

[@proskillful8424]

AllOurGodsHaveAbandonedUs 7 ARCHITECTS IS FUCKING SOLID GOLD

[@jordanrochester6030]

[@SamJanuary17]

[@markthemsuffer7411]

[@maxwelld23]

My album of the year 🤘

[@attrition71]

My god STILL got the Beautiful leads and swells, but still maintain that Gut-check Best band man

[@bradford-bdg]

[@soccermom021]

When you come across a song you relate to all I can do i keep hitting replay

[@SkintRippler]

I'm really digging the old 35mm camera look here. Not to mention that you guys are still amazing as hell musically.

[@IzaacArtist]

My boys did it again! They have yet to disappoint.

[@AlexYuen0]

THANK U KING FOR DROPPING THIS HEAT

[@alexandremartins4964]

You guys never disappointed me! Best hardcore band in canada

[@Worminthetrenches]

New Counterparts and Thy Art Is Murder songs in the space of 24 hours, sick

[@emoplankton]

Man Counterparts never dissapointed me, not even once !

[@BrokenCompassRecords]

like a gunshot from behind... unexpected!!!! soooo good man, i love this band.

[@mymistakesband]

Going hard as usually

[@MrPxcJake1]

This is literally poetry, so well written, but In trying to get my head around the meaning of "Allow me to exist only in the empty spaces between breath. In the margin of each exhale that you’re sure that you have left"

[@corycivi]

they done did it with this one.

[@cometasis]

I hear your music in puerto asis putumayo colombia, keep on rocking, your music is great

[@skeltahart]

Love this band

[@ruicarneiro1640]

Love how agressive the guitars sound. I felt that TWFU felt too familiar to The Difference but now Im glad this kinda sounds different, a bit more structured.

[@ruicarneiro1640]

Lets put it this way: for me TWFU is a 10/10 and TDBHAH is a 11/10.

[@zebd1680]

twfu was a bit too fuzzy for my but this is just right

[@zebd1680]

Jason LovesABR i felt like the guitar tone was a bit too fuzzy at times

[@zebd1680]

Jason LovesABR for me at least

[@ruicarneiro1640]

Maybe he means that some of the songs sounded the same? For me it was the main problem with it. Even tho they are all amazing, they all blended and sounded basically the same.

[@spencerhf4]

AMAZINTMG

[@seraphunderthehood]

Counterparts, constantly exceeding expectations. 👏

[@pincheko562]

They may not be as big as they deserve yet, but I feel like a strong percentage of Counterparts fans consider them to be their favorite band, me being one of them. I'm super excited for this album and CP in general. It's awesome to see how dedicated Brendan is to this band. What with the member changes and all, a lot of people doubted if they could still put out that same great material that we're used to without drastically changing up the sound. I'm sure this song eliminated all doubt. Their consistency has been steady and they only get better and better. It's also really cool to see how confident they are about this album, calling it the best record they've ever done. I'm excited as fuck for this shit. Let's fucking go.

[@rltool79]

Great!!!

[@sirdougieaudio]

Best thing to wake up to, thank you Counterparts (:

[@alexjensen1012]

Same amazing counterparts sound with another level of something on top it it.

[@rickysebastian8816]

this is what I waiting for

[@wikaaditya50]

"To be born , to live , to die , rotting away . there's notihing to be done. I can' be saved." love counterparts
