Programada inicialmente para ser lançada no dia 8 de janeiro com um single promocional, a faixa, que faz parte do álbum “Anesthetic” de Mark Morton, foi liberada acidentalmente pela Apple Music e Google Play.

“Cross Off” é a primeira música de estúdio de Chester Bennington a ser lançada após julho de 2017.

Gravada em abril do ano passado, a faixa mostra o melhor do vocal agressivo de Chester, com limpos, berros e um instrumental bem pesado e característico de Morton. Para quem estava com saudades de músicas mais agressivas de Bennington, “Cross Off” é um prato cheio!

O álbum “Anesthetic” está em pré-venda e você pode adquirir no iTunes ou no Google Play. O lançamento será no dia 1 de março.

Abaixo você confere a letra completa transcrita pelo LPLive.

Cross off the days gone
Cross off the days gone
Gone by

Wasting away our self inflicted slow decay
What should have been, what never was
Became the end for both of us

Heavy is the hand that points the finger (finger)
Heavy is the heart that’s filled with anger (anger)

So lay them all to waste
Years you’ve decided to erase
And cross off the days

So black out and hide behind the lines
Keep staring down the sun and note the
Light will finally blind your eyes, it’s the end
Cross off the days gone by
Cross off the days gone by
Cross off the days gone by

Cutting you free
The phantom that was part of me
You have lived, you have lost
The separation’s worth the cost

Heavy are the voices that go unspoken (spoken)
Heavy are the promises now broken (broken)

Well you burn below the chased
Upon destruction in your wake
Cross off the days

So black out and hide behind the lines
Keep staring down the sun and note the
Light will finally blind your eyes, it’s the end
Cross off the days gone by
Cross off the days gone by
Cross off the days gone

Gone by

Making my way back from the madness
Shooting my thoughts through the blackness
And the sadness, but the fact is
I’m shooting through words like a clenched fist
Fuck sanity, I wanna bleed
Can’t kill the pain
It’s everything
It’s all I feel
It’s what I breathe
Through the hate I breathe into what I need

Heavy is the hand that points the finger (finger)
Heavy is the heart that’s filled with anger (anger)

Did you survey everything you laid to waste
You cross off the days

So black out and hide behind the lines
Keep staring down the sun and note the
Light will finally blind your eyes, it’s the end
Cross off the days gone by
Cross off the days gone by
Cross off the days gone by
