Awake From these aeons of slumber Awake From these aeons of slumber Sentenced to roam the darkness To stumble towards a world of no light Towards a shimmer in the distance [in the dark] A specter evading the eye The darkness No light Evading the eye The dawning sun could not clear the mist Open the glooming veil of grey To blaze the trail into the clear To leave the fellowship of fear In silence again The path lies ahead A walk in the cold A stroll in the dark In aeons of slumber I braced myself For the day it all ends For the day it begins The songs of my death Are already sung I take my last breath And carry on The door I opened Never meant for me This path is over The stories revealed One last step One last song In aeons of slumber It all had begun

Away from the light Into the darkness out of sight Searching for silence Embracing the solitude Run - and lock yourself away Hide - hide your feelings so no one sees Deceive - everyone thinks you're alright You are the light that dies Fade away - dissipate into thin air A mere flicker and then nothing Long astray - the power of delusion led you here Be a distant memory Pain, dread, fear - the suffering will not end Still the same - the fever dream remains No way out - no doors in this room Close my eyes - and walk towards the light The silence cuts you like a knife The walls are coming closer Your goal seems so near yet so far This does not feel the right way You scream in silence - no one’s there To catch you while you’re falling As the light comes closer - you comprehend Now you really are alone

White walls and blinding lights Doesn’t feel like I’m part of your solution All shapes are the same, all smiles and all faces Feels like I’m going insane The city sleeps but I am awake Trying to find a way to understand Your train of thought I’m losing myself On your beautiful isle of mind I feel so alone when I look into your eyes I feel that you’re gone when there’s nothing left inside My world is so deprived of your beautiful smile There is no light to guide my way I scream your name out loud And all that is left of you is in my mind The hands that give are the hands that take That took you away from me I try to find my way back home Right through the clouds - then towards the sun I know that I won’t and I know that I can’t Forget you No you inside - When I look into your eyes Familiar sight - When I look into your eyes So bright the night - When I’m looking I’m attracted to your light - When I look into your eyes What’s wrong feels right - When I look into your eyes I am aching to be like you - When I look into your eyes

Reflections 07:36
This will be the last revelation I’ve gone through this many times There will be no happy ending And the reason is decline How did we get into this And where will you go? When everything is changing Because i changed Look at the way we turned into a mess Creating our own reality This is the one that will last And all that’s left to do is leave I open my scars this time I'll watch them healing leaving behind the pain that was so relieving I open my scars this time I'll watch them healing leaving behind the blade that was so revealing This won’t be your last disappointment Was not supposed to be the one. Even though things seemed so endless All the promises are gone. Why have you forgotten The pact we swore that day We were one in that very moment But that moment’ didn’t stay

Devours all with no judgement It doesnt care who you are Grinds lives and memories like grain Turns whole cities into dust Time Takes away All Grief Takes away The Tears Takes away my Pain No memories remain Pain - the reason we try to forget The Tears - they taste so sweet Even grief dissolves again Time takes away Forever seemed to be an eternity Being just another word for me There’s more to forget than yet to see Time Takes Away - all the wonderful memories Try to hold on and still it flees Flying by like sands in the hourglass Time Takes Away Time Takes away All Grief Takes away The Tears Takes away my Pain No memories remain Fear that the memories gone astray The pain to obliviate All will vanish and fade Time takes away

Falling Down 06:24
Voices from beyond The soothing sound of rain Takes me back in time Its scent abducting me Pouring down on me Million tons of memories Hammering down the guilt in me Tonight the rain will fall on me While i stand here by your side Tonight it will wash away my tears This time i will be here with you While there's no one else left This life will not go away unnoted Every drop a punch A smile, a frown, a laughter Washing away all our plans Draining our history The air smells of snow But it's just me who's falling All alone in the dark A mere flake in the winds of winter
8.
I close my eyes The night is cold Six days since you left me Wandering on different paths Where I can't reach you A fleeting glimpse On you once more Would be enough to end my tears The way you left so unforeseen Just tears me apart Your sweet touch still haunts my thoughts Which keeps me away from bleeding. I need a thing to be holding on To keep me away from leaving. I see the unknown beyond. It hails down on me Why did you leave I try to understand Where did we go wrong

about

Follow us into the unknown beyond

Many doors had to be passed for us to finally reach the point where we stand. Some of the infinite ways led to our second album becoming what it has become. Five paths, to be exact. Because it reflects the stories and lives of the band even more than the first album did. The sound you hear and the stories you are being told are a big part of our minds and souls. That's why we hope that you will come a little bit closer to us while listening - a little bit closer to the unknown beyond which awaits us all behind the countless doors that may still follow. Step right through. And Listen.
