The Devil Wears Prada will be going out on tour starting in August at The Rave and will be playing their two ‘Zombie EP’s’ front to back. Before they hit the road they’ve treated their fans to a new banger called ‘Salt’ and announced a new album entitled Color Decay which is due out September 16th. I had a chance to talk to Mike Hranica, vocalist and rhythm guitarist, about mental health during our Mental Health Month. Attached are the lyrics which you can see sounds like a battle with mental stability.
‘I can never process What I’m feeling in my bones Like a sickness that I can’t diagnose Some days I think I’m afraid of my shadow I show up to fight at all the wrong battles And I don’t think my mind will be right ’til I Pour the salt into the wound Let the rain wash over you If everything I said was true Then why am I paralyzed?’
After we had finished recording the interview I told him that I loved the way his band has evolved and he told me, “new song coming soon…” Well here it is!
I can never process
What I’m feeling in my bones
Like a sickness that I can’t diagnoseSome days I think I’m afraid of my shadow
I show up to fight at all the wrong battles
And I don’t think my mind will be right ’til IPour the salt into the wound
Let the rain wash over you
If everything I said was true
Then why am I paralyzed?Watch the grass blow in the wind for the hell of it
And sometimes I get so caught up that I forgetThat all of our words only mean what’s behind them
You can’t throw gasoline on a fire
And say you tried to put it outPour the salt into the wound
Let the rain wash over you
If everything I said was true
Then why am I?Hiding from the blinding lights
I never had an alibi
If everything I said was true
Then why am I?
Why am I still paralyzed?Why am I still paralyzed?
Step back as the ashes rise
Embers up toward the sky
With all the things that I can’t findPour the salt into the wound
Let the rain wash over you
If everything I said was true
Then why am I?Hiding from the blinding lights
I never had an alibi
If everything I said was true
Then why am I?
Why am I still paralyzed?
Still paralyzed
