all the good you gave
measured back in pain
no one’s shadow cast
but silence razor sharp
The dust lies heavy, a grim shroud over shattered ground, where silence speaks louder than the clash ever did. In the stillness, questions linger, circling like carrion birds—what could have shifted, what might have been spared? Yet the truth, faceless and unyielding, whispers its cruel possibility: that the ending was etched long before the first blow fell, and no choice, no cry, could ever unwrite its bleak design.
We visit this state of mind in Raudiver‘s new video for Mary Tombs, which thematically follows their song Leave (which is about leaving toxic relationships). Mary Tombs delves into the torment of painful memories and a yearning for escape. Wrestling with a fraught relationship, where love and anguish are inseparably intertwined, cuts deeper than words when faced with silence. The cycle of giving and suffering feels inevitable, leaving only regret and a longing for release. You’re always wondering if it is your fault; if you yourself were the killer of the relationship.
“We wanted a little change from the pattern and so we recreated it in Logic,” says Charlie Eddy. “The beat is consistent through the whole song, the illusion of change is just a delay put across the drum machine channel.
The song takes form in a fun music video: director George Tripsas took inspiration from old Giallo horror films. “We shot in a big old Victorian house in Galveston,” Charlie Eddy explains. “The shot with the staircase was inspired by the Hitchcock film Psycho, and I think George and Barry Behannon and the actress Isabella Vik did a great job capturing that old school projection trick.”
