Promise 02:33
I swore it to myself Not to the permissive mass, not to anyone else There's no way you can ever tear me down You can't ever tear this down Never will I succumb Never will I turn my back It's who I choose to be, what keeps me pushing on Filled a fucking void in a place I don't belong There's no way can ever tear this down You can't ever tear this down Never will I succumb Never will I turn my back on myself Try to force me down To just another sightless man But you can't grasp this I'm out of sight
2.
Into Nothing 01:12
Reaching and reaching without goals Stuck at the bottom of a bottomless hole Follow the guidelines drawn for you Living life in routines, and I am the fool? I'm growing and growing Searching for something within You sit back and watch Evolve into nothing So many choices, so many ways to go But you refuse to change from what you know Dare to face new grounds, dare to explore Break the spell, life is so much more I'm growing and growing Searching for something within You sit back and watch Evolve into nothing Growing older every day Growing colder every day Growing older every day But I won't throw my life away

Betrayal 01:57
You turned your back On everything we had A bond built on so many years I just can't put that in the past What we said was true, was it a lie? So filled with desperation At least you could've fucking tried Those years that shaped my youth I'll never get them back You gave away what meant the most (to me) You left me behind What we said was true, was it a lie? So caught up in frustration At least you could've fucking tried Those days, those fucking days Got the best of me. I could've needed some backing up, man But you were to blind to see Waiting, hoping, regretting It was all in vein But I grew stronger from the pain The one thing we both believed in But no I can see your commitment didn't mean a fucking thing Betrayal!

You might close your eyes You might turn away But the blood is on your hands The flesh is on your plate Can't avoid it It's got to come to an end Face the facts: these are stolen lives Justified by the touch of a fork and knife Caged, beaten, slaughtered for what? This unforgiving habit has got to be stopped It's a matter of life and death For us and them
5.
Uncover 01:46
We're bringing our world to its knees With our constant consumption and unquenchable greed It's time to forget what we want, because we just want more And understand what we need Blinded eyes are buying lies We got to turn the tide If we want to face tomorrow I can't stand these modern ways Stay ahead of the game as our priorities decay Constant in motion, going nowhere fast Standing in line until our lives have passed Blinded eyes are buying lies We got to turn the tide If we want to face tomorrow Uncover your mind Blinded eyes are buying lies We got to turn the tide If we want to face tomorrow

Don't Need 00:50
7.
Oppose 02:02
How much longer must they suffer? How much longer do we have to witness the pain? Just to satisfy the sick needs of the human race FOR EVERY STEP I'LL STAND IN YOUR WAY Natural or not If cruelty is nature I oppose I will not take part In murder Empty words of compassion and respect You look away when the truth won't fit If killing is wrong then what the fuck is that on your table? Torture, hidden by shallow traditions Natural or not If cruelty is nature I oppose I will not take part No I won't savour the flesh of the dead I'd rather save a being from the blade For every leash, every fence, every cage A beating heart burning in rage
8.
Prevail 01:29
You're running in circles, it's keeping you down It's hard to hide the weakness and doubt The world won't listen, you can't grab hold We'll find a way to see it through Make it work We'll find a way Make it work Through the darkest days That light in the dark is fading fast Carrying on to make time pass And every step feels like a thousand miles We'll prevail, strong from the stride Make it work We'll find a way Make it work We'll make it work Move on Live on

855 00:51
Maura: Sick of this place Feeling out of step But I can't seem to cut The noose around my neck Running and running In a circle again The place we love to hate Is the poison in our veins Sick of this place Feeling out of step, But I can't seem to cut The noose around my neck Maura pride - A fucking lie! I won't get rid of this place, but belive me I'll try.

Shadow Cast 03:45
We walk this earth with nowhere to go Life slips through our hands, if we don't grab hold I'm pretending to be strong, but I fear the same as you That fear of being alone, we just can't let go I'm feeling weaker As I fake another smile ( I ) feel the doubt as I Slip away from solid ground Another shadow cast A shadow cast Uncertain steps to nowhere Not moving - Not an inch Disappointed in myself For giving in again Comfort in solitude - Staying out of light I'm not letting an one in So calm inside my room, closed mind, closed eyes. I embraced what I despise, but there's a way out When a shadow's cast, light is sure to find

about

Festen er over!

Evolve legger inn årene for godt.
LP-en som skulle vært ute på Crucial Response blir ikke gitt ut.
Vi kommer til å legge ut hele albumet på vår bandcamp, der kan det streames eller lastes ned gratis. En stor takk til de som har hjulpet oss i den tiden vi har vært aktive, de som har satt opp konserter, laget mat, gitt oss et gulv å sove på.

Vi var Evolve. Vi var fra Maura.

---------------

Evolve is finished.
The LP that was supposed to be out on Crucial Response will not be released.
Instead we will put out the album on our bandcamp, where you can stream it or download it for free. A big thanks to those who helped us, booked shows, made food for us, given us a floor to sleep on.

Thanks.

-Evolve
