"Harridan" lyrics
"Harridan"
Gold man bites down on a silver tongue
Takes a deep breath and blows the candle out
He knows the truth but he keeps it to himself
Here it is
You can only save yourself
Only yourself
When we bite the dust
We will hide our cuts from the world
When you're in the dirt
You don't show your hurt to the world
When we bite the dust
We will hide our cuts from the world
When you're in the dirt
You don't show your hurt to the world
Cold man, white knuckles on the wheel
Well it's all just there to steal
You just gotta take it
Take it like the harridan you are
When we bite the dust
We will hide our cuts from the world
When you're in the dirt
You don't show your hurt to the world
It's the time of the almost rain without you
I am in debt to night
And gone to earth for love
And I, a shadow
And what of us?
And what of me?
And what is left without you?
When we bite the dust
We will hide our cuts from the world
When you're in the dirt
You don't show your hurt to the world
It's the time of the almost rain without you
I am in debt to night
And gone to earth for love
And I, a shadow
And what of us?
And what of me?
And what is left without you?

"Harridan" is the first single from Porcupine Tree's 11th studio album "CLOSURE / CONTINUATION". The song was premiered on November 1, 2021.
Porcupine Tree said in a statement: "'Harridan' and a few of the other new songs have been in play since shortly after the release of 'The Incident'. They initially lived on a hard drive in a slowly growing computer file marked PT2012, later renamed PT2015, PT2018, and so on. There were times when we even forgot they were there, and times when they nagged us to finish them to see where they would take us. Listening to the finished pieces, it was clear that this wasn't like any of our work outside of the band – the combined DNA of the people behind the music meant these tracks were forming what was undeniably, unmistakably, obviously a Porcupine Tree record. You'll hear all of that DNA flowing right through 'Harridan.'"

Ulver - "So Falls The World" Legends fail
And houses fall
In great shame
In elliptical ruins
A king gouges his eyes out
Forbidden love takes poison
Tragedies repeat themselves
In perfect circle
In perfect circle
Wrong, wrong,...
Opeth - "Sorceress" I am a sinner and I worship evil
Blood is thinner but you will never know
Can you confess that you thrive in chaos?
You're a sorceress and your eye is on the lost
But you're dying
It's in your eyes...
Blackfield - "Family Man" Breathe in
Breathe out
You had your shot you blew it all
Right now
Dead end
Your rescue team is miles away
Breathe in
Breathe out
You had your shot you blew it all
Right now
Dead end
Your rescue...

This path you travel
Similar
But far from equal
Contentious
Glorious friction

You were broken so
You have broken free
