My Epic - Phantom Limb

To Rate
Rough around the edges
Borderlines and fences
You came with the softest steps and settled into me

Coalesce
We crossed our hearts
With a finger prick
And words you whispered as a sacrament
They stay with me like a phantom limb

Underneath the surface
Cavernous and earthen
You echo in first person
And there within emerges
A better gravity

Coalesce
We shed our skins
Traded fingerprints
I feel the pull of your ligaments
It stays with me like a phantom limb
It stays with me like a phantom limb

I'm a silver lining, you're my golden hour
Everything looks better in this light of ours
If Your voice won't carry through the distances
You don't need to raise it, I can read Your lips
I'm a silver lining, you're my golden hour
Everything looks better in this light of ours
Feel the numbness lifting where your fingers press
And you stay here with me
Like a phantom limb
Like a phantom limb
Like a phantom limb

Like a phantom limb

My Epic

My Epic is a post-hardcore rock band from Charlotte, NC that was founded in 2005. Their sound ranges from the acoustic guitar picking with post-rock undertones that characterized their EP “Broken Voice” to the crashing, urgent, atmospheric sounds of full-lengths “Yet” and “Behold”. Another defining aspect of My Epic is lyricist and frontman Aaron Stone’s talent for penning deeply personal lyrics that often delve into the struggles with relating to God, ourselves, and others.
A self-described “band of Christians”, My Epic has stated that one of their main purposes in writing and playing music is creating what Stone calls “Thin Spaces” – places where listeners can connect to God in the most direct way and with the fewest distractions possible.
