Engines of ruin

Crocodile Elvis

Finally, Life In Her

Rage To Live

Trenches Of Beauregard

Who am I in this darkened maze? Where do these cursed paths lead?

When night falls

ur crazy matches mine
feel hazy, losing time
when im with u
there's no one else like u
there's no one else like me
yet we're bonded

sitting here wondering 
is this all a dream
i can't tell the difference
for the life of me
will u save me
if i start to lose control

if I die
with u by my side
please babe don't cry
it hurts too much inside
now u know why
ill wait here tonight
for things to feel right
like when the stxrs align 

now we're laying in bed
what was that thing u said
if ur not here I may as well be dead
oh baby u can say that again

sitting here wondering 
is this all a dream
i can't tell the difference
for the life of me
will u save me
if i start to lose control

feel my body on top of ur body
oh yeah

if I die
with u by my side
please babe don't cry
it hurts too much inside
now u know why
ill wait here tonight
for things to feel right
like when the stxrs align
like when the stxrs align

when the stxrs align

Meeting Satan – "The Nine Circles" - The narrator finally meets Satan, pleads for escape, only to realize… they never left.

Lyrics:
[Prologue]
“You wandered so far…”
“Endured so much…”
“And now, at last, you stand before me.”
“But tell me… where did you think you were?”

[Verse 1]
"I have seen the flames, I have felt the weight,
"Walked through shadows, cursed my fate.
"I beg release, I beg escape…
"Let me rise—let me wake!"

[Pre-Chorus]
"Step by step… deeper you tread…"
"Every turn… led by the dead…"
"Is this Hell… or something worse?"

[Chorus]
“YOU NEVER LEFT—YOU NEVER FELL!”
“THIS ISN’T HELL—YOU KNOW IT WELL!”
“LOOK AROUND—SEE THE FLAMES!”
“TELL ME NOW—WHAT HAS CHANGED?”

[Verse 2]
"Every sin, every crime,
"Every circle, every sign.
"I thought I fell, I thought I burned…
"But I was blind—I never learned."

[Pre-Chorus 2]
"Step by step… deeper you tread…"
"Every turn… led by the dead…"
"Is this Hell… or something worse?"
"A cycle cursed… a world perverse…"

[Chorus 2 ]
“YOU NEVER LEFT—YOU NEVER FELL!”
“THIS ISN’T HELL—YOU KNOW IT WELL!”
“LOOK AROUND—SEE THE FLAMES!”
“TELL ME NOW—WHAT HAS CHANGED?”

“NO GODS ABOVE—NO DEVILS BELOW!”
“ONLY LIES—AND YOU SHOULD KNOW!”

“YOU NEVER LEFT—YOU NEVER FELL!”
“THIS ISN’T HELL—YOU KNOW IT WELL!”
“LOOK AROUND—SEE THE FLAMES!”
“TELL ME NOW—WHAT HAS CHANGED?”

“NO GODS ABOVE—NO DEVILS BELOW!”
“ONLY LIES—AND YOU SHOULD KNOW!”

[The Breakdown]
“YOU WALKED THE NINE—BUT NEVER LEFT!”
“HELL ISN’T BELOW—IT’S WHERE YOU STEPPED!”

“BREATHE IT IN—YOUR FINAL BREATH!”
“LOOK AROUND—THIS IS DEATH!”

“EVERY WAR—EVERY CRIME!”
“EVERY LIE—EVERY TIME!”
“EVERY FLAME—EVERY CHAIN!”
“HELL IS HERE—IT’S ALL THE SAME!”

[The Final Words]
"You begged to leave… but open your eyes…
"This Hell… was always home."

[Guitar Solo]

[Expanded Chorus]
“YOU NEVER LEFT—YOU NEVER FELL!”
“THIS ISN’T HELL—YOU KNOW IT WELL!”
“LOOK AROUND—SEE THE FLAMES!”
“TELL ME NOW—WHAT HAS CHANGED?”

“NO GODS ABOVE—NO DEVILS BELOW!”
“ONLY LIES—AND YOU SHOULD KNOW!”

“EVERY LIE—EVERY CRIME!”
“EVERY LIE—EVERY TIME!”
“EVERY FLAME—EVERY CHAIN!”
“HELL IS HERE—IT’S ALL THE SAME!”

"You begged to leave… but open your eyes…
"This Hell… was always home."

[Outro Chorus]

“YOU NEVER LEFT—YOU NEVER FELL!”
“THIS ISN’T HELL—YOU KNOW IT WELL!”
“LOOK AROUND—SEE THE FLAMES!”
“TELL ME NOW—WHAT HAS CHANGED?”

“NO GODS ABOVE—NO DEVILS BELOW!”
“ONLY LIES—AND YOU SHOULD KNOW!”

“EVERY WAR—EVERY CRIME!”
“EVERY LIE—EVERY TIME!”
“EVERY LIE—EVERY CHAIN!”

“I HAVE LOOKED AROUND—THIS IS DEATH!”
"I BEG RELEASE, I BEG ESCAPE!
“HELL IS HERE—IT’S ALL THE SAME!”
THIS IS DEATH!” (THIS IS DEATH!)
THIS IS DEATH...

[Outro]
“No heaven, no escape…
“Only fire… only fate…
“The lies you lived… become your chains.”
“Hell was home… all along.”

THIS IS DEATH...

“No heaven, no escape…
“Only fire… only fate…
“The lies you lived… become your chains.”
“Hell was home… all along.”

Home To My Family

[Verse]
I've been travelin' on this road so long
Now I feel it comin' home so strong
I see the faces in my head
Of all my family and my friends
I can't wait to hold them close again

[Chorus]
Now I'm on my way home to my family
I can't wait to see all the love for me
Now I'm on my way home
Back to my own
I can't wait to feel all their love

[Verse]
And the sunset glows on the street I know
Oh
I'm goin' home
And my heart's in full
Now I'm on my way home
Back to my own
I can't wait to feel all their love

[Chorus]
Now I'm on my way home to my family
I can't wait to see all the love for me
Now I'm on my way home
Back to my own
I can't wait to feel all their love

[Bridge]
All of the pain in my heart is gone
All of the days I spent alone
And I can't wait to feel all their love
Now I'm on my way home
Back to my own

[Chorus]
Now I'm on my way home to my family
I can't wait to see all the love for me
Now I'm on my way home
Back to my own
I can't wait to feel all their love

I’m Kerlhan, a music enthusiast in all its forms. From Frank Zappa to Jan Garbarek, from Linkin Park to Lacuna Coil, not to mention Iron Maiden, John Coltrane, or Al Di Meola… I love exploring, mixing, and experimenting. I used to have reservations about some genres, but over time, even rap has earned its place in my playlists.

My music reflects this diversity. A Day Before Hell, for instance, dives into the struggles of a soul caught in life’s chaos. But I don’t stop there—I also experiment with electronic sounds, AI-generated voices, and anything that helps me express raw, intense emotions.

Whether it's through heavy guitars, soaring synths, or voices from another world, my goal is simple: to feel and make people feel. If you connect with my universe, feel free to support by liking, commenting, or reposting. It truly means a lot and keeps me pushing forward.

See you in the sound.
