1.	Gone 05:08	lyrics
Tangled in dread The wolves feed their heads Corpse devoid of sound Blood curdles brown Gone He must have suffered so long All alone as the sky came falling down Far away From the firing line He sought a truth that he could not find His vow of silence Gave birth to violence A bitter truth Through the roaring pain His soul divides A building weight serves him to remind His need for guidance Brings more defiance So he must choose And look for dawn Impending death Final fading breath Heave in, heave out Foaming at the mouth Gone He must have suffered so long All alone as the sky came falling down Far away From the firing line He sought a truth that he could not find His vow of silence Gave birth to violence A bitter truth Through the roaring pain His soul divides A building weight serves him to remind His need for guidance Brings more defiance So he must choose And look for dawn
2.	Mountain 04:10	lyrics
Hide in the mountain Away from it all Seeking seclusion From the public’s mighty scorn now that we’re here Standing by the fire Loneliness creeps around Chokes us with its ire Cave bound Sullen earth mound Here now ‘Till we find Our home A conquest for peace Will never transpire Flee from the witch hunt Come to the chasm that we’ve acquired Now that we’re here Destroying our desires Emptiness creeps around Choking us ever tighter Cave bound Sullen earth mound Here now ‘Till we find Our home now that we’re here Standing by the fire Loneliness creeps around Chokes us with its ire Cave bound Sullen earth mound Here now ‘Till we find Our home
3.	Abyss 03:59	lyrics
Weights keep me sinking Toward an abyss The place I do not know My visions getting blurry The pressure starts to build My bones begin to chill The bell’s phenomenon Continuous struggle The dark whispers quiet songs The deep blue Consumes Lays waste to all we do Eternal The deep blue Washes over you Underworld Surface world forgotten Here I shall remain Trapped inside the void And as my armor rusts You will slowly come to know That we all come and go As we fade into dreams The bell’s phenomenon Continuous struggle The dark whispers quiet songs The deep blue Consumes Lays waste to all we do Eternal The deep blue Washes over you Underworld
4.	Façade 06:31	lyrics
Blame it all All on me Wish for the life The one you need And in the end It’s hard to be so trusting When in the end I am the king of nothing So I’ll take off the crown And beg for the freedom Mull around With no reprieve And I will waste Waste and breath And in the end It’s hard to be so trusting When in the end I am the king of nothing So I’ll take off the crown For thee…
5.	Poseidon (Waves) 04:16	lyrics
You blinded my son with the spear While he slumbered Than ran off with pride in your heart But made a mistake in telling him That everyone should know who you are So now I’ll watch as you struggle for life Make you suffer And now that your lost wondering around through these lands Your spirit will crush, mortal man I’ve captured the waves Now that you can’t figure out where to land your ship shall remain in my hands I’ve captured your waves Time will remain on my side While you flounder you’ll miss your wife every night And she won’t know where you’ve gone or what she can do To get your back home So now I’ll watch as you struggle to try to recover And now that your lost wondering around through these lands Your spirit will crush, mortal man I’ve captured the waves Now that you can’t figure out where to land your ship shall remain in my hands I’ve captured your waves (Those waves came crashing down) And now that your lost wondering around through these lands Your spirit will crush, mortal man I’ve captured the waves Now that you can’t figure out where to land your ship shall remain in my hands I’ve captured your waves
6.	Isle of Pine 05:00	lyrics
I venture to a forest That rests beyond the vale While contemplating thoughts The ones that aren’t my own And I slowly start to see Reflecting symmetry Within the isle of pine We look to find More of our life Way down here Below the trees Rest all the secrets That we need Way down here Below the trees Rest all the demons Designed to breed Within this forest We face the promise A place to harbor our will To fight Chain me to this place now For I cannot return And I’ll burn this fucker down And slowly fade away And I slowly start to see Reflecting symmetries Within the isle of pine And the ties We try to bind Way down here Below the trees Rest all the secrets That we need Way down here Below the trees Rest all the demons Designed to breed Within this forest We face the promise A place to harbor our will To fight
7.	Harakiri 04:36	lyrics
We live to die Through journeys we deny A war that’s lost Continues to exhaust When all the shame in the world Is living here in our house And now our fingers are curled Around a sword while we bow The tides will turn Giving hope to those who burn Prevail with might We seek a peace of mind When all the shame in the world Is living here in our house And now our fingers are curled Around a sword while we bow All the shame in the world Is living here in our house Now we stab ourselves And admit that we are not proud
8.	Ghost 06:32	lyrics
Sitting without a view Wish I’d come back for you Trapped in a place of sorrow I fear I’ve become hollow This is a waste of your time now Because I will decay Float away on the memories Far away And I’ll roam around these halls Asking for you Yet you’ll never answer me We’ll fall astray The light will close around me The world will be shut off I’ll go back to what I was To the place that’s lost Make this stop right now Put me in a box Nail me shut in the attic Lay me to rest So I’ll roam around these halls Asking for you Yet you’ll never answer me We’ll fall astray Walk away Walk away It’s a hopeless endeavor The future was never supposed to work out Just roll with the punches right now start again And I’ll roam around these halls Asking for you Yet you’ll never answer me…

about

This was written/recorded from 2017 to 2019. We mixed and mastered it in Dom’s apartment. We'd like to thank Zack Zajdel for being there in the beginning, and for helping us find our footing. Big shout out to Jason Achilles as well, who recorded drums for us when we were broke. We hope you enjoy this album as much as we enjoyed making it.
