This is a song about surrender — not in weakness, but in peace. It’s about finding safety and stillness in the darkness when the world outside feels too loud. In the song, the forest becomes a mirror of the mind — quiet, haunting, full of shadows that are somehow comforting.
From my perspective, it’s about drifting into that space between fear and calm, where the monsters stop chasing you because they are you. When I sing “close my eyes”, it’s not about escaping reality; it’s about accepting it, floating through it, and realizing that sometimes the silence knows you better than anyone else ever could.


LYRICS:

[Intro]
Close my eyes
Close my eyes

[Verse 1]
I see shadows in the pines
Voices echo through my mind
This dark forest calls my name
And I feel alive in pain
I’m a stranger to the sun
But here I’m not the only one
I feel safer when I hide
In the night, in the night

[Chorus]
Close my eyes
Close my eyes
Close my eyes
Close my eyes

[Verse 2]
The stars are burning in the leaves
They pour their fire into me
I get lost inside illusions
Build my world out of confusion
I have ghosts who understand
They reach out and take my hand
I feel safer when I hide
In the night, in the night

[Chorus]
Close my eyes
Close my eyes
Close my eyes
Close my eyes
Close my eyes
Close my eyes
Close my eyes
Close my eyes

[Verse 3]
Branches whisper, roots entwine
Telling secrets through the pines
Every nightmare feels like home
In this forest I’m not alone
Creatures hum a lullaby
Pull me deeper, let me lie
I feel safer when I hide
In the night, in the night

[Bridge]
Don’t wake me up, don’t pull me out
This is the place I dream about
The fear becomes a lullaby
In my eyes, in my eyes

[Bridge – Pt. 2]
The silence heals, the darkness sings
I feel the safety that it brings
Shadows keep my secrets tight
In the night, in the night

[Chorus]
Close my eyes
Close my eyes
Close my eyes
Close my eyes
Close my eyes
Close my eyeeesssssss

[Outro]
In the night, in the night
In the night, in the night
Close my eyes…

Close My Eyes

This song is about being trapped between memory and release — the impossible weight of carrying every mistake, loss, and truth that time refuses to wash away. It’s me confronting the ghosts I’ve built inside myself, knowing they anchor me as much as they drown me. The song moves through grief, guilt, and the desperate hope for redemption, even when freedom feels like betrayal to the past. Every verse is a mirror of endurance and self-punishment — a soul chained to what it can’t forget, still reaching for light through the cracks.


LYRICS: 

​[Verse 1]
​The cold light bleeds through a fragile frame,
Another midnight whispers out your name.
This heavy silence holds the truth I keep,
A buried promise while the whole world sleeps.
I walk these halls where the echo remains,
Of whispered damage in the driving rains.
The pages turn, but the ending's still the same,
And every future portrait is consumed by flame. 

​[Pre-Chorus]
​[Drums become heavier, tempo pushes forward. Vocals rise in intensity]
I've tried to tear the binding from the page,
To break the cycle on this lonely stage.
But the weight is crushing, the truth too near,
And the price of freedom is a boundless fear. 

​[Chorus]
Go on and scream my burden to the void!
Let every empty hope I had be destroyed!
I am the anchor holding down the past,
A shadow burning, built to never last!
Oh, the memory, you're the vessel and the grave!
A place where the soul comes, but nothing is saved! 

​[Verse 2]
​They say a spirit can only linger on,
If the single, fatal thread is never drawn.
Well, I am that thread, fraying in the grime,
A prisoner sentenced to unending time.
I search the darkness for a flickering spark,
A single reason to get out of the dark.
But the shadow I embrace is all I find,
Leaving every fragile future far behind. 

​[Bridge]
Don't tell me silence is a kind of peace...
I can hear the rot inside me, it will never cease!
A thousand voices screaming that I belong,
To the fault lines where I knew I did the wrong!
The only key to sever the chain is to forget who you are!
But the memory's the only beacon I can see in the dark! 

​[Verse 3]
​The glass is cold where I pressed my hand against the pane,
And nothing waits outside but endless rain.
The cost of letting go is more than I can pay,
So I'll stand here frozen 'til the final day.
The light I seek is just the fading trace,
Of every moment I can't replace.
I made my choice to wear this heavy crown,
And this is where the walls come crashing down. 

​[Chorus]
Go on and scream my burden to the void!
Let every empty hope I had be destroyed!
I am the anchor holding down the past,
A shadow burning, built to never last!
Oh, the memory, you're the vessel and the grave!
A place where the soul comes, but nothing is saved! 

​[Outro]
...Nothing is saved.

The Anchor's Hold

Hey music people! 🎸
Here we are with a new track! Well, it’s actually not brand new: we wrote and recorded it over 3 years ago, way before we got on SoundCloud. Now we’ve re-recorded and polished it quite a bit, and here it is.😊
Evolution (Talking With the Past) is a journey through time and generations, exploring memories, changes, and reflections on the past. From ’99 to 2026, we tell how time flies, taking away everything that seemed eternal, but leaving moments of real emotion, energy, and life. It’s a mix of nostalgia and pure energy, with guitars, synths, and a solid groove that we hope will make you feel it.😌
We hope you enjoy it at least a little, and if you feel like it, drop a comment! We’d really love to hear what you think!🙌
Next track, we’ll reconnect with our Apocalyptic Trilogy, complete with a video (probably going to be age-restricted on YouTube, considering the oceans of blood 😅) and some bloopers. Let’s see what comes out of it.
Oh, and a little spoiler: for Halloween we’re working on a song in Italian (don’t worry, we’ll post the English translation too!).
Enjoy! Love you all! 🫶

At the moment, this track is exclusively available on SoundCloud.
Released on October 9, 2025.

Lyrics:

Greetings
here’s two thousand five
we are so free and so alive
for this
this life we live

Hey
so what’s up?
this
is twenty twenty-five
Goodbye

Hey
we can’t believe this
this
this thing
this thing is real
(Wow)

Talking
with the past
they were doing
all their best
but time
is passing by
flying away
wave goodbye
Goodbye

Hey you guys
it’s ’99
all the drama
now is coming back
right into our heads
bringing back
the mess in our lives

Hello dudes
the millennium now is past
and things are going mad
the year now is two thousand twenty

Talking
with the past
they were doing
all their best
but time
is passing by
flying away
wave goodbye

The pandemic hit
and the world paused
our lives rewrote

Hey
here’s two thousand twenty-six
the world keeps spinning
free to die

Now
there’s nothing we can do
you’re just following us
and in a not-so-far day
you will say what we say
you will look at your past
and realize that
all the good things you had
now are memories in the past

Talking
with the past
they were doing
all their best
but time
is passing by
flying away
wave goodbye

Goodbye!

Evolution (Talking With the Past)

Canción para Alejandro

Como el sol fuiste un suave amanecer
y el reloj se paró para verte nacer:
en tus ojos no cabía más amor.

La niñez te forjó como explorador
y el viajar te enseñó a mirar sin rencor:
no consiste en vencer sino en cómo convencer.

Estribillo

Vas creciendo y tu valía
la refrendas más cada día
pues el corazón te dicta el buen hacer.

Puedo ver también en tu alma
que el chaval con el que jugaba
 se quedó y nunca dejará de ser.

----------------------------

Cada vez siento más en tu forma de ser
el afán por saber y por la honradez:
¡los pilares que más falta hacen  hoy!

La niñez te forjó como explorador
y el viajar te enseñó a mirar sin rencor:
no consiste en vencer sino en cómo convencer.

Estribillo

No consiste en vencer sino en cómo convencer.
No consiste en vencer sino en cómo convencer.

Song for Alejandro

Like the sun, you were a gentle dawn,
and time stood still to witness your birth:
your eyes held no more love.

Childhood shaped you as an explorer,
and travel taught you to see without resentment:
it's not about winning, but about how to convince.

Chorus

You keep growing, and your worth
is reaffirmed more each day,
for your heart dictates what is right.

I can also see in your soul
that the boy I used to play with
remained and will never cease to be.

----------------------------

More and more, I feel in your character
the thirst for knowledge and for honesty:
the pillars most needed today!

Childhood shaped you as an explorer,
and travel taught you to see without resentment:
it's not about winning, but about how to convince.

Chorus

It's not about winning, but about how to convince.

It's not about winning, but about how to convince.

Nunca Se Apagará
