Conan's Crucifixion Upon the Tree of Woe, Death, and Subsequent Resurrection
A Colossal Hand
I dreamed I stood defiant Against the serpents And their legions I tore flesh from limb Cursed the gods Not even death could pacify me I was the absolute I lived by my hand And knelt to no man But when I woke I laid compliant As terror swept away All I could love in this world And in its place A void of expression A tunnel of decay I forsake everything For a moments bliss Free of my own emptiness And only this monument remains Only this monument remains

The Last Good Days is an expression of anxiety, frustration, and futility in the face of ecological destruction. The EP title refers to the thought that eventually, each and every living thing experiences its last "good" moments before the agony of death. There is no guarantee that we will realize we are experiencing those fleeting last smiles until after they've already faded, and we take for granted every pleasant experience. The grand question is: when the bad times come, will you be satisfied with how you spent the good ones?
