Снова ищу, снова тебя в темноте
Снова вижу, тебя в глубине...
I'm looking for you again, again in the dark
Again I see you in the depths...

Глубина

Глубина (feat. Tears of Lilith, Terra Sapiens)

LYRICS:

Thinking
Changing
Contemplating
Debating
If it's worth it
To show what I hide
Deep on the inside
It's in my mind

In the blink of an eye
There's a monster inside
My mind isn't intact
If that's not a fact (you'll never know)

This battle's now a war
I can't explain what I'm fighting for
I know I'm messed up in the head
I'd almost rather be dead
Maybe World War 3
Will finally set me free
One simple nuke drop
Will make my heart stop

I can't stop
I can't breathe
This is not who I want to be

In the blink of an eye
There's a monster inside
My mind isn't intact
If that's not a fact (you'll never know)

A gun is too messy
The rope is too simple
I need a cannon to make me invisible

My Own Enemy (NOVAkILL Changing REMIX)

Title and closing track from the new album “Harsh Vulnerable” 
https://moodexhibit.bandcamp.com/album/harsh-vulnerable

Harsh Vulnerable explores a heavier more somber sound for M.E.; with emphasis on post rock elements and more acoustic tonalities. It serves as a cathartic/coping expression for what I have been going through on both a personal level as well as the bleak global outlook.

This song in particular is perhaps my most cathartic work - expressing a gamut of emotions

Harsh Vulnerable Album

Mood Exhibit - Harsh Vulnerable 1 & 2

They sang not with voices, but with the memory of shape.
Beneath the shattered pane, echoes gathered
fragments of forgotten rites,
lit by the flicker of a candle that never cast heat.
Each note a reflection,
each silence a scream caught in glass.
An homage to the room that remembers you,
long after you've past.

This is a song that I’d written a while back.  Well, the basic music had been there for a while and it’s always a challenge to return to a track and add lyrics and some kind of melody.

There were two themes running through my mind when I put the lyrics together.  The first was my impression that, increasingly, things are being down to us.  Perhaps this is nothing new, but everything I read and hear say to me that individuals are increasingly powerless and that this permeates through the many aspects of our lives.

The second idea was one of addiction, something that often features in what I write.  I’m not sure that I was linking the two ideas i.e. the more powerless we feel, the more likely we are to turn to something that then becomes addictive.  My work in this area suggests it is always a journey without end, because you never know what life will throw at you and how vulnerable you become when things get difficult.

Often, it seems to me, that it is a key positive relationship that can make all the difference.  Hence, the idea of a straight road or path leading to that one individual.
