Pity Party 02:35
Sick of being your pity party I don't wanna figure this out now You're a wolf in sheep's clothing I just need some space So whatcha gonna do when the world Falls around you From all the bullshit that you said You're not sly enough to make anybody swoon How could the focus not be on you? You're the salt that's boiling in my wounds I've kept my mouth shut too long Anything you've ever had you've been given You're a silver spoon sucking mother fucker And you're never gonna get it
2.
Demigod 04:23
Counting ceiling tiles in my room Is now my favorite pastime I'm running out of things to do Without the darkness clouding mind I'm drowning in a sea I'm drowning in a sea It's not hard to see It's not hard to see You're the raindrops I see in my window And I wish it rained every single day No one cares about the good shit You're just some fixer-upper story I'm drowning in a sea Drowning a sea It's not hard to see Not hard to see You're the raindrops I see in my window And I wish it rained every single day To wash away To wash away All the shame I feel every day Shine your ugly flame upon my face Burn me up Just burn me up Burn me up It's killing me to see you You're the poison in my life I'm swallowing this lie again It's hard not to think That all you're doing Is meaningless
3.
Nosebleed 03:15
Living is a nosebleed Tired of gritting my teeth I wanna look in the mirror and see What everybody else sees Frozen in time Stretched the seams Breathe in deep Breathe in deep I wear my scars For all to see I abstained from happiness It all ends Before it begins Living is such a nosebleed Tired of gritting my teeth I wanna look in the mirror and see What everybody else Cut your teeth Taste the melancholy The air is stale It's like you've been here before If I'm a sinking ship You're the hidden rock It's hard to smile When all you see Are things dead And dying Breathe in deep Breathe in deep I'm just trying to keep my head Above water I can see the candles Burning at both ends Wiping the sweat from eyes Screaming into the void again
4.
Canceled plans again Silver linings never show Nothing on tv But my mistakes on repeat Narrow losses show I put my faith in Things that broke my heart Now it's turned to stone Medication is nice Till it fucks your brain up Try to find your center That's what they all say Two days no sleep From my brains Made up situations Oh god don't hate me When I call I put my life on the line For people who don't care if I live or die Have you felt the shame On their disappointed faces Looking at you

about

“Ugly Flame” is the debut EP from North Carolina post-hardcore/emo band, Dull Mourning. Following their single “Burdens” released earlier in summer 2021, “Ugly Flame” continues to expand more on the post-hardcore/emo dynamic that the band carved out so well. “Ugly Flame” revolves around the feeling of frustration and struggling in everyday life. Tracks like ‘Demigod’ and ‘Nosebleed’ question the meaning of everyday life, while ‘Narrow Losses’ confronts the struggle of coping with medication. There’s a lot of harsh truths of life addressed on “Ugly Flame”, yet they all align with the yearning to be a better person and get out of the constant struggle.
