Saint Or Rogue - This song was written during a low period in my life where I spent 90% of my evenings drinking alcohol, being locked down in the COVID pandemic. It’s a commentary of my thoughts and feelings on myself during that time, using suppressants to get through the evenings. Until when I wrote these lyrics I realized, I really am dragging myself down and I didn’t like where it was going. This was the first set of lyrics written for this album, and it definitely sparked a fire in me to continue to write.
lyrics
Saint or Rogue
Why am I not myself, why am I not at all?
Why am I so reliant yet so uncomfortable
Just one sip and it’s in my stride
I will take comfort in how I reside
Intoxicated or am I fading
Or is it too late?
Saint or rogue, sinner or foe
How dare I deceive you
Why am I losing a fight
Against all that I know true
My comforts are seeping through the cracks in my weathered skin (the cracks in my weathered skin)
In the hidden parts of our mind, oh where do I begin (where do I begin?)
Just one sip and it’s in my stride
I will take comfort in how I reside
Intoxicated or am I fading
Or is it too late?
Saint or rogue, sinner or foe
How dare I deceive you
Why am I losing a fight
Against all that I know true
So we start again (so we start again)
From a new days end (from a new days end)
So we start again (so we start again)
Until we amend
Saint or rogue, sinner or foe
How dare I deceive you
Why am I losing a fight
Against all that I know true
All that I know true
Saint or rogue, sinner or foe
How dare I deceive you
Why am I losing a fight
Against all that I know true

The whole album is pure gold! Sometimes I just sit down and listen to the whole album and do nothing else. Awesome rhythms, riffs and Courtney's golden voice! <3 Pazi

Saw Future Palace in support of Electric Callboy in Luxembourg and their energy and talent is absolutely amazing. Modern post hardcore with crystal clear production, pristine clean vocals and fierce screams. The atmosphere of tracks like Paradise and Defeating Gravity is exemplary and there are good heavy hitters, too. What elevates this band above genre colleagues is the strength, intensity and versatility of Maria's voice - unmatched for me. Run gets better with each spin. Listen to this! David Fischer

One of the only bands whose beat blasts through your headphone and still sounds melodic. What an album!
And there's more but I'll leave you to it! QuarkStorm
