Orph is a three-song demo that was released by the band Dredg in 1997.
Drummer Dino Campanella says, "Our first two recordings were written to be rhythmically aggressive. We did the third one, Orph, because we wanted to grow up the right way, from our roots with harmony and melody." Singer Gavin Hayes explains the heavier sound of Orph compared to later releases: “Heavy music back then to me was a little more rebellious. It wasn’t so mainstream at the time. You used to have to wait for MTV’s Headbanger's Ball to see anything of the sort. It’s just different now, and that’s kind of why we steered away from it. This was just a natural progression.”
All songs written and composed by Dredg.
Try To Say Goodbye
Jory Eve
(I Still Know What You Did Last Summer)
I'm holding a letter that I wrote last night
Tryin' to remember what it says inside
The words are written but never been said
Your voice keeps calling in my head
I don't believe it's time
But I try to say goodbye
But I feel so lost inside
I don't know my name
And I can't erase what's weighing on my mind
It says I'd be leavin' on a redeye plane
But I know I'm coming back again
You've heard the story a thousand times
The song is playing in your mind
I'm asking myself why
Then I try to say goodbye...
But I feel so lost inside
I don't know my name
I can't erase what's weighing on my mind
I try to stay awake, trying to write the words
And I'm trying to write the word goodbye
... to say goodbye
But I feel so lost inside
I don't know my name
And I can't erase what's weighing on my mind
And I try to say goodbye
But I feel so lost inside
And I try to say goodbye
And I try...
And I try... to say goodbye
And I try to say goodbye
I try...
