Lyrics

[Intro]

[Instrumental solo]

Night lingers, the world in hush and gray,
Wandering lonely, my sky drifts far away,
Breath caught waiting, for morning to begin—
Your light is the moment I am living in.

Every second, I remember why I stay—
Sunrise heart, driving dark away.

You rise like the sun, painting hope on Mount Fuji,
You rise like the sun, turning silence to a symphony,
With every dawn, you rise, you rise,
With every dawn, you rise, you rise.

In simple hours, you color every day,
Watching you laughing, the world finds its way,
Each heartbeat echoes your warmth on my skin,
Again and again, let your rays begin.

Climbing higher, my love just repeats,
Climbing higher, my love just repeats,
You rise, my sun, my sun, my sun.

You rise like the sun, golden on Mount Fuji,
You rise like the sun, waking love inside me,
With every breath, you rise, you rise,
With every breath, you rise, you rise.
Again and again—oh, you rise.
Again and again—oh, you rise.

Just for you, I rise. (You rise)
Just for you, I rise. (You rise)

No More War

'Hollow Grin’ is the shattering opening to a dark concept album, where a groom, scarred by childhood abuse and abandoned at the altar, snaps as a sinister Voice awakens within. Thunder cracks and frenzied guitars drive his descent into madness, setting the stage for a chilling killing spree across the album. Betrayed by his fiancée, who mirrors his abusive teacher, he sees all women as the same—embodiments of his pain. Consumed by rage, he surrenders to the Voice’s promise to ‘make it better,’ unleashing a bloody crusade against those who haunt his fractured psyche. This is only the beginning of his unraveling.

[Intro]
“She’s just like her... she’s just like her...”

[Verse 1]
Veil untouched, aisle a grave,
Thunder cracks her silent ‘no’!
Glass-eyed stares, hands grip tight—
A groom unclaimed, a man denied!

“They’re all watching…”

[Pre-Chorus]
Bouquets wilt, petals fall,
Tuxedo choking, the walls close in!
A laughter coils inside my skull,
It whispers low…

“She’s just like her…”

[Chorus]
Tearing seams, breaking skin,
A hollow ring, a hollow grin!
The storm outside, the storm within,
And the Voice calls me…
“Let me in!”

[Verse 2]
Steps retreat, echoes mock—
Pity drips like wax on stone!
Candles flicker, shadows twist,
In their eyes, I die alone!

“They’re laughing at you… just like her…"

[Breakdown]
A name unspoken, vows undone,
A choir drowns in howling wind!
Splinters crack inside my mind,
And the Voice begins… to… grin…

“She’s just like her… just like her…"

[Chorus]
Tearing seams, breaking skin,
A hollow ring, a hollow grin!
The storm outside, the storm within,
And the Voice calls me…
“Let me in!”

[Outro]
“Let… let me in… let me in…”
“I’ll make it better… trust in me…”

Hollow Grin

[Verse 1]
I built your altar out of shattered vows
Lit the flame and kissed the ground
You speak in silence, I scream in tongues
Your name’s the hymn that rots my lungs

Sanctified in every bruise
You break my will, I let you choose
Your shadow lives beneath my skin
I crave the cage you lock me in

[Pre-Chorus]
You wear the cross, I bear the blame
You bless the fire, I drink the flame
Salvation’s just a holy lie
But I still kneel and wonder why

[Chorus]
You're the saint and the serpent, the heaven and hell
A gospel of violence where angels fell
I pray for you nightly with blood on my teeth
You're the love that I worship, the death underneath

[Post-Chorus]
Bury me deep in the temple of lust
Your name is carved in the bones that I trust
You're my god, you're my grave
You're my god, you're my grave

[Verse 2]
I saw your face in the stained glass haze
The smile behind a martyr's blade
Confession booth, but I can’t atone
You carved your name into my bones

Every lie becomes a creed
Every touch a holy need
You crown me with your sacred sin
And I let the spiral pull me in

[Pre-Chorus]
You wear the crown, I wear the chains
You feed the wolves inside my veins
A holy war behind your eyes
Still I believe your sacred lies

[Chorus]
You're the saint and the serpent, the heaven and hell
A gospel of violence where angels fell
I pray for you nightly with blood on my teeth
You're the love that I worship, the death underneath

[Bridge]
Take this soul and tear it clean
Make me yours, obscene, unseem
You're my temple, I’m your curse
In your silence, I rehearse

[Post-Chorus]
Kiss me beneath your unholy crown
My faith in you won't let me drown
You're my god, you're my guide
You're my god, you're my plague

[Breakdown]
This is worship —
This is war.
I begged for mercy—
You asked for more.
Blood on the altar
Love in decay
Divine obsession
I die when you pray

[Final Chorus]
You're the saint and the serpent, divine disease
A hymn that haunts me, a cross that bleeds
I kneel for your poison, I drink it in faith
You're the light in my ruin, the pleasure in hate

[Post-Chorus]
Bury me deep in the temple of lust
Your name is carved in the bones that I trust
You're my god, you're my grave
You're my god, you're my grave

[Outro]
And I still pray
And I still burn
And I still ache
For your return

You're my god... you're my grave...
You're my god... you're my plague...
You're my god... you're my grave...
You're my god... you're my plague...

AND I STILL PRAY!!!

Godless Devotion

Less loud when i bleed

A raw and heartfelt plea for escape from overwhelming pain and despair. It captures the struggle of losing hope while yearning for mercy and a chance to be saved. A haunting reflection on vulnerability and the fight to hold on.

Get Me Out (2025)

Remember me, I swear
I won’t let you down in the next life

As I decay, I feel no pain at all
Life’s shattering, I guess I’ve lost control

A day without another glimpse of hope,
Raindrops drown me softly down, I choke

I have suffered and drained
I’ve thrown the dreams away
To see myself disintegrate
Thought I would not give up
Will something pick me up
‘Cause I’m loosing touch with all around
Get me out

Remember me, I swear
I won’t let you down in the next life
Remember me, I swear
I won’t let you down in the next life

Another step into the void
Makes nothing anymore matter
I can barely save myself
I implore for mercy forever
Get me out

A day without another glimpse of hope,
Raindrops drown me softly down, I choke

I have suffered and drained
I’ve thrown the dreams away
To see myself disintegrate
Thought I would not give up
Will something pick me up
‘Cause I’m loosing touch with all around
Get me out

Get Me Out

Every song I make is personal. It's how I process pain, remember the past, and find meaning in everything I’ve been through.

Sometimes it's raw, sometimes it's weird, sometimes it’s beautiful. But it’s always real.

If you’ve ever felt broken, haunted, or misunderstood, this music is for you.
Thanks for listening.
