Kursk - Lyrics - A Wilhelm Scream

A Wilhelm Scream is a melodic hardcore band from New Bedford, Massachusetts. Many people have referenced Strung Out, Hot Water Music, Propagandhi, and Strike Anywhere as the band's similar artists. Their name is a reference to the Wilhelm Scream, a famous stock sound effect which mainly is used in films. The band previously went by the names Smackin' Isaiah, Koen, and Adam's Crack, though the former was the only name to be used in any major release. The reason for the name changes "from Koen to Smackin' Isaiah to A Wilhelm Scream was really a matter of them adding new members, and progressing maturing as a band". They have been called "the best hardcore band since Black Flag".

The voices are silent echoes This is the hardest part The water's up to our ankles With no sign of letting up But I'm still climbing out I always meant to tell you that I never meant you harm in this life I'll have to wait until the next to make things right I'm tapping S.O.S. codes on the wall But this is as far as it goes I'm writing my regret notes from the heart I never loved you, you know 'Cause I'm riding a lie and I'm writing a lie, I took a chance and we're paying for the lie And I'm writing, I know the fault's all mine, please stay strong If they remember me, will they forget the meaning of why I came so far to drown? I'm forgetting it myself I find I'm staring at these rusty bolts This hatch was attached to My eyes are glued This coffin moves, angled down The skeletal walls are brittle The salt corrodes it all Your spent oxygen fogs the metal You're taking greedy breaths from us But I forgive you all I always meant to tell you that I never meant you harm in this life I'll have to wait until the next to make things right I'm tapping S.O.S. codes on the wall This is as far as it goes I'm writing my regret notes from the heart I never loved you, you know 'Cause I'm riding a lie and I'm writing a lie I took a chance and we're paying for the lie And I'm writing, I know the fault's all mine Feels like I'm already Feels like I'm already Feels like I'm already gone I'm already Feels like I'm already Feels like I'm already gone Feels like I'm already gone I'm already
