God Has Left The Building

I am overpowered

Before Creeper came on stage the support act was going to perform. I didn’t know who this was as they kept it a secret. They responded to all questions regarding the support act with

„It's a surprise! You will find out when they’re on stage but i promise that you will all love them!“

The lights went out, meaning the still unknown support act was going to be on stage any second. The suspense grew and grew until the music started playing. It sounded very similar to me but i was far too excited to tell who it was until i've seen him on stage! It was William Gould himself! Salem was the support act!

The familar music belonged to the first song of their first EP, Fall Out Of Love.

Like an apparition appeared in the kitchen, I am overpowered
Hungover and beautiful
Threw myself a funeral just so you'd have to bring me flowers
You said save yourself, fall out of love
You said save yourself, fall out of love

He stood on this little podest right in front of where i was standing while singing those words,  then wild head banging during the instrumental part and then he sang the next verse, louder and faster than the first one.

With a kiss so poisonous boys are delirious, lying on the motel bed
Said I'd get sick of you, I kinda always wanted to
Let me die this little death
You said save yourself, fall out of love
You said save yourself, fall out of love

He jumped off this little podest and ran around the stage while singing.

I'm drunk just off your eyes while you nurse a flask between your thighs
I'll shoot the angels from the skies, clip their wings and watch them die

There's a black hole inside of me, apathetic vacancy
Even just her touch is war
Drinking blood on the first date, we can never separate morning and the night before
You said save yourself, fall out of love
You said save yourself, fall out of love

I'm drunk just off your eyes while you nurse a flask between your thighs
I'll shoot the angels from the skies, clip their wings and watch them die

I always knew that Will was wild on stage but this show he seemed much wilder than on all the concert videos i've ever seen and i think i watched them all. But it wasn’t a bad thing for me. I sang along to every word and jumped along with the rest of the crowd.

Then he jumped back onto the podest And sang the next lines emotionally.

Trace the steps to the place where they buried your heart
List the words that they used as they pulled you apart
All my dreams are dead, they lay in separate beds
I will die a death, fall into your lap

The rest of the song was faster again and he kept holding the microphone into the crowd, making us sing some of the words.

Trace the steps to the place where they buried your heart
List the words that they used as they pulled you apart
Trace the steps to the place where they buried your heart
List the words that they used as they pulled you apart
You said save yourself, fall out of love
You said save yourself, fall out of love

He stood still for a second as the music of the next song „Destroy Me" started playing then he started crazy headbanging and started singing

She falls like a domino into my concrete arms and my heart of stone
My little pocket knife, she stabs herself into my side
A true love knife fight
I kept a room for her once inside my head
And now I lease it out but no one pays the rent
My little arsonist, she consumes me in a blaze
Going down in flames.

For the chorous he jumped off this podest again running and jumping across the stage again.

Bury me in bed with you
I want to hang helpless from your noose
I do, I do
Tie me up inside your room
I'll whisper all the ways I long for you to, to destroy me baby

As the next verse he jumped onto the podest again but kept running to the other podests, interacting with the whole crowd.

I am so possessed and she is so adored
As she rolls up smokes upon a ouija board
Don't want an after life, don't wanna feel alive at all (we got dead hearts baby!)
We get so drunk, we don't feel at all
Prom King and Queen at the "Apathy Ball"
But in the dead of night, she holds me like a hand grenade
Going down in flames

After that he was running and jumping again. I was taking Videos but it wasn't possible to take a decent picture because he just couldn’t stand still for a second.

Bury me in bed with you
I want to hang helpless from your noose
I do, I do
Tie me up inside your room
I'll whisper all the ways I long for you to, to destroy me baby

'Cause you can keep me, so take my body
A dinner date at an infirmary

Bury me in bed with you
I want to hang helpless from your noose
I do, I do
Tie me up inside your room
I'll whisper all the ways I long for you to, to destroy me baby

The next song, Throat, was a softer and catchy song that required Will to be calmer on stage then he had been during the previous songs, but still he couldn’t stand still. He stayed on the podest most of the song but he kept moving on it. It looked as if he was dancing.

Your lips are trembling before you speak
You down your drink and drown in me
By the mausoleum where we'd meet
I buried us both and fell back to sleep

Boys like me are dead on the inside
Girls like you shouldn't waste their time

So wrap your hands around my throat
So I don't speak another word
So wrap your hands around my throat
And hurt me like you love me girl

Porcelain and an aniseed
The pain arrives at such a speed
It's 4:00 a.m., she hangs her head
Puts her hair up and lays me down instead

Boys like me are dead on the inside
Girls like you shouldn't waste their time

So wrap your hands around my throat
So I don't speak another word
So wrap your hands around my throat
And hurt me like you love me girl

There's a killer on the streets of my hеart
Nothing hurts…

The next song, Eyesore, was a song Will originally wrote for Creeper but it didn’t make it onto the album and Will ended up making it a Salem song. The song was more Powerful and Will just couldn’t stop headbanging, running and jumping across the stage for the whole song.

I know I lost my soul somewhere in her
In her affronted eyes or impossibly blonde hair
I'm a hand-rolled cigarette, on the boulevard at night
Collapsing in her hands, she desperately relights
And she keeps telling me I'm gorgeous, and I keep wishing I could sleep
I made concrete shoes fit for two found a river we can dip our feet in

And she said, Boy you look like death but healthy guys are such an eyesore
Get it right and baby you just might find a kind of girl to die for tonight

Love hurts, but you look so fine
Girl, punch mе in the face, let mе feel your skin on mine
Marry me in black
Bury me in white
I'll be the trophy wife neither of your parents like

And I keep telling her she's dangerous and she keeps telling me she's fine
But she falls for me like Peggy E, from atop the Hollywood sign

And she said, Boy you look like death but healthy guys are such an eyesore
Get it right and baby you just might find a kind of girl to die for

We could be, we could be bound and blue, drunk and in love, tragic and true

And she said, Boy you look like death but healthy guys are such an eyesore
Get it right and baby you just might find a kind of girl to die for

And she said, Boy you look like death but healthy guys are such an eyesore
Get it right and baby you just might find a kind of girl to die for, tonight

During the next and last song as Salem, Doomed (for each other) he was the wildest on stage during the Salem set.

Baby I've come to sell my soul
Don't forgive me of my sins tonight, there'll be more before the morning light
You know that's just exactly what I do
Do you wanna see what lies below?
Let's make out and make early graves, you can call me by my secret name
It's true, you know exactly what I do

So take me down to hell with you
You can have my heart if you want to
We're born in heaven, raised in hell
We're doomed, for each other

Passеd out again on heavens floor and God can't call a cab this late, thеre's a curfew on the pearly gates
Below, they know exactly what I do
Have I drunk enough to fall for you?
You said you don't believe in love, that you hate the boys you constantly dream of
Tell me baby is that true?

So take me down to hell with you
You can have my heart if you want to
We're born in heaven, raised in hell we're doom
So take me down to hell with you
You can have my heart if you want to
There's no redemption, no way out we're doomed for each other

From cradle to hearse, for better or for worse, baby you are my curse
So take me down to hell with you
You can have my heart if you want to
We're born in heaven, raised in hell we're doom
We can drown, drown, drown tonight in booze, we can black our lungs in hotel room
There's no redemption, no way out we're doomed for each other

I was surprised but impressed by how wild he was but knowing he'd do the same with Creeper i was wondering where he took all that energy from.
After the song was done he and the rest of Salem left the stage and the stage was set for the Creeper show we all waited for.

Will once said that it would kill him to play with both bands the same night but it was happening now and i and i think everyone else too, I thought that those tweets were just early hints that he was planning to do this tonight.
