Time Settles - Lyrics: 

And the decision made a hole, a vacancy in a vital inner chamber in my bones
This is what finally separated me from all my friends for whom I became skeletal

Time settles over me
Time settles over me 

And then the places I visit became the same inside world that I thought I was in
And like a fly scribbling the air I know neither the place nor what the hour is

Time settles over me
Time settles over me

And I, far off inside, was old

And now the years are closing in, each minute the last minute and following me

"Fragments of a Dream" is a chill, moody alt rock song that delves into themes of personal struggle and resilience. The song opens with a haunting verse that sets a reflective tone, describing the protagonist's battle with haunting memories and inner demons.

The pre-chorus speaks to a sense of rising above adversity and reclaiming one's mind amidst chaos. The powerful chorus highlights a journey towards self-discovery and strength, with the repeated motif of finding light in fragments of the past. 

A dynamic guitar solo adds an emotional depth, symbolizing the protagonist's transformation. The song's blend of introspective lyrics and evocative melodies creates an atmospheric, stirring experience.

Fragments Of A Dream

In "Omen" the artist crafts a harrowing tale of ancient prophecies and the impending apocalypse. The song's slow, clean verses, delivered with a melancholic tone, set the stage for the unfolding narrative, as the lyrics speak of a future sealed by blackest hate and the signs of the end times.

The pre-choruses build intensity, introducing orchestral elements that heighten the sense of drama and urgency. The choruses, with their powerful, emotive vocals and soaring melodies, drive home the central theme of the dark prophecy and the world trembling at its power.

The second verse further explores the chaos and destruction that await, with vivid imagery of bleeding skies, quaking earth, and the rise of the wicked. The bridge section showcases the artist's musical prowess, with faster, intense instrumental work featuring heavy guitars and pounding drums, mirroring the turmoil described in the lyrics.

As the song reaches its climax in the final chorus, the full force of the orchestration joins the fray, elevating the emotional impact and emphasizing the magnitude of the apocalyptic events foretold. The haunting outro, with its slow, orchestral arrangement, leaves the listener with a sense of finality and the realization that the end is nigh.

Lyrics:

In the depths of ancient tomes
Lies a prophecy, carved in stone
A warning of the darkest fate
A future sealed by blackest hate

The stars align, the signs are clear
The end of days is drawing near

Omen of the dark prophecy
The coming of the final hour
Omen of the dark prophecy
The world will tremble at its power

The skies will bleed, the earth will quake
As armies of the damned awake
The righteous fall, the wicked rise
In the chaos, hope's demise

The prophecy, it cannot lie
The end is nigh, we cannot fly

Omen of the dark prophecy
The coming of the final hour
Omen of the dark prophecy
The world will tremble at its power

The pages turn, the seals are broken
The final words, at last, are spoken
The dark prophecy, it comes to pass
The world, in flames, it cannot last

Omen of the dark prophecy
The coming of the final hour
Omen of the dark prophecy
The world will tremble at its power
Omen of the dark prophecy
The end of days, the darkest hour
Omen of the dark prophecy
The world, consumed by its power

Omen

This song aims to capture the feelings of isolation, the struggle with chronic conditions, and the impact of external factors like heat, without being specific on the illness. It expresses a mix of melancholy, resilience, and hope.

Seasons of Stillness

Back to the womb

Lyrics:

When I was younger, they told me to stand in line,  
To bow my head, to follow their design.  
But I could hear the distant drums,  
Calling out, “Your time will come.”  
  
I walked through streets where the lamplight dies,  
Where whispers grow and the silence lies.  
Beneath the cracks, a chorus swells,  
A symphony that time compels.  
The weight of all their rules was mine to bear,  
But now I rise—I’m not their heir.  

And I can see the turning tide,  
The spark of hope we’ll never hide.  
So lift your voice, let the walls collide,  
We’ll stand, we’ll stand, we’ll fight tonight!  

Break the chains, we’ll shatter the steel!  
We’re the roar, the cry they’ll feel!  
A march for the lost, a hymn for the brave,  
We’ll find the light no one could save!  
Sing it loud, let the banners wave—  
This is the anthem of the unafraid!  

They said the brave don’t last, but they’re wrong,  
Our hearts beat louder than their song.  
I’ve seen the faces turned to stone,  
But we are the voice of the overthrown.  
Through the fog, through the fight, through the cold night’s glare,  
We’ll find a way; we’re already there.  

Here we are, beneath the sky,  
A legion born to question why.  
Not just surviving—we are alive!  
We’ll climb, we’ll climb, to the great divine.  
The fire burns, and the flags are torn,  
But from the ruins, a world is reborn!  

Break the chains, we’ll shatter the steel!  
We’re the roar, the cry they’ll feel!  
A march for the lost, a hymn for the brave,  
We’ll find the light no one could save!  
Sing it loud, let the banners wave—  
This is the anthem of the unafraid!  

Oh-oh-oh-oh! Can you hear the sound?  
It’s the clash of the free breaking holy ground.  
Oh-oh-oh-oh! Raise your voice, take a stand,  
We are the tide, we are the band!  

Now the towers fall, and the streets ignite,  
We’re the lantern flames piercing through the night.  
They’ll write of us in the chapters to come,  
The ones who stood when they said “succumb.”  


Anthem Of The Unafraid

As a magnet
We pull in and out
As far as we can get
We can never be so blind

That we had a crush
And we fucked it down
Oh we were on the same page
But you chose to run away


Such as a magnetic resonance
Such as electric waves
We're trapped in a void
And we're carried away


When I tried to understand
Why you were so much angry
I remembered the stance
You took when he threatened to kill


Such as a magnetic resonance
Such as electric waves
We're trapped in a void
And we're carried away

Such as a magnetic resonance
Such as electric waves
We're trapped in a void
And we're carried away

Magnetic Resonance

lyrics:

put me in your institutions
it's not me - it's your confusion
television - mind pollution
education - dissolution

i will never die

inundated and sedated
drunken, numb, irradiated
pacified and draped in lies
but i have never, ever faded

i will never die

I Will Never Die
