INSOMNIA

BandCamp

nocturne (Anoice / Takahiro Kido 'INSOMNIA')

Aurion
Aurion was born out of a reversed creative process – instead of building the foundation first, I let my random plonks take the lead. Five unique voices intertwine and rise together toward the end, like a phenomenon of light breaking through the dark.

It is both raw and unrefined, a piece where mechanical energy collides with dreamlike warmth – a hymn to the movement between chaos and harmony. Aurion became a pure release for my recent hectic days. When I finally found a quiet moment for myself this morning, it felt only natural to let it be released in its rawest form.

Aurion

Mélancolie

The spring is hushed, the linden tree is bare,
A silent witness to a cold despair.
Your laughing eyes, a memory, a ghost,
A treasure found and then forever lost.

Oh, my grief, my grief, a river deep and wide,
Oh, my grief, my grief, with nowhere left to hide.
But in this dark, a vow of steel I make,
Until the world for your dear life shall break.

My heart a stone, my soul an iron shard,
They shattered love, they left me cold and hard.
This quiet girl they thought they knew is gone,
A shadow waits to greet the blood-red dawn.

Oh, my grief, my grief, a river deep and wide,
Oh, my grief, my grief, with nowhere left to hide.
But in this dark, a vow of steel I make,
Until the world for your dear life shall break.

No angel comes to comfort or to save,
Just darkness rising from a new-made grave.
A different power fills my soul tonight,
To turn all sorrow into vengeful light. 

Oh, my grief, my grief, a river deep and wide,
Oh, my grief, my grief, with nowhere left to hide.
But in this dark, a vow of steel I make,
Until the world for your dear life shall break.

Oh, my, my vow, a river red and wide,
Oh, my, my vow, with vengeance as my guide.
And in this dark, their world of steel I'll break,
And every soul for your dear life shall ache.

Kriemhild's Vow Of Revenge

The space between

Welcome to the latest remix of my original song, Hard Roads. Courtesy of super producer Pax, Hard Roads gets some John Carpenter style drama and an 80s electronic movie soundtrack feel, to go with the lost and lonely melodrama of my original vocal. Enjoy Hard Roads - Rainy Version.

Hard Roads - Rainy Version

Let It Flow [My Sacred Place]

[Verse 1]
Why do you ask me, "What went wrong?"
Like crying means I'm broken all along
You tilt your head, your voice turns low
But pain is not a shame, it's how we grow

[Pre-Chorus]

You see the tears – I see the truth
Every drop is breaking through
A dam of silence, old and deep
Now I breathe, now I speak

[Chorus]

Let it flow, let it burn
Every sorrow has its turn
Don’t you dare call it weak
It’s the fire I need to speak

[Verse 2]
They taught us strength means standing still
To choke the cry, to cage the will
But now I’m wiser, now I know
The deepest peace begins below

[Bridge]
If you push it down, it will rise
In the shape of fear, in disguise
But when you let it go, you fly
It’s not the end – it’s a why

[Chorus]

Let it scream, let it sing
This is not unraveling
This is power, this is light
This is how I win the fight

[Outro]
So next time ask me something true
Not “What’s wrong?” – but “What broke through?”
This is not my fall from grace
It’s my rise – it’s my sacred place

Under the Same Sky – تحت نفس السماء

Lyrics:

So you’re gone now
Oh, my friend
I don’t know how it ended
But I’m sure I’ll find a clue
What happened with me and you
I hope you’re happy, whatever you’re doing

It’s a million lies away
I can’t understand it
Oh, you’re here and then it’s grey
How the clouds are banding
How do I understand it all
I’ll find my way
I have to pay

And I wait for a call 
It don’t come
Talk it out with my friends
Oh they’re right now
When they say that it’s done
Turned to dust 
I know, I can’t let go
I’ll find a way to carry on


It’s a million lies away
I can’t understand it
Oh, you’re here and then it’s grey
How the clouds are banding
How do I understand it all
I’ll find my way
I have to pay

I know I failed
Saw you breaking on the chair
Balcon, we fought
Tore the world apart
Don’t know how I couldn’t see your pain
I can’t, won’t go there again

And we tore the world apart
Let it go asunder
As I gave you all my rage
You took the pain and ran again


It’s a million lies away
I can’t understand it
Oh, you’re here and then it’s grey
How the clouds are banding
How do I understand it all
I’ll find my way

River of Days

[Verse 1]
Down by the water
a voice moves slow—
it tells me of places
I may never go

Leaves lean closer
whispering my name
shadows fold the shoreline
but nothing feels the same

[Pre-Chorus]
The river bends
carrying time away
I can't match the current
but I wade anyway

[Chorus]
Flow river flow—
take my sorrow downstream
carry all I know
into someone else's dream
I drift where the silence
teaches me to stay—
lost in the river
lost in the river of days

[Verse 2]
There's a figure waiting
in the fog's embrace
her hands are lanterns
her smile a trace

The sky dissolves
into purple mist
I reach but the moment
slips away again

[Pre-Chorus]
The river bends
turning thought to song
I follow where it leads me
even if it’s wrong

[Chorus]
Flow river flow—
take my sorrow downstream
carry all I know
into someone else's dream
I drift where the silence
teaches me to stay—
lost in the river
lost in the river of days

[Bridge]
Water knows the shape of me
keeps it for a while then lets it go

[Final Chorus]
Flow river flow—
take my sorrow downstream
carry all I know
into someone else's dream
I drift where the silence
teaches me to stay—
lost in the river
lost in the river of days
