Wolf Bounce

We are at the crossroads
that will test our hearts

War, famine, and pestilence
shake us apart

People’s love will grow so cold,
Forgetting the way to light,

Broad is the path to destruction
Narrow, the way to life

[chorus]
Jesus is Lord, Jesus saves
Hosanna! 
To him, all glory and praise

We can all be like God
Is the serpent's lie

While we worship the work of our hands
In arrogance and pride

They tell us peace and safety,
Then destruction strikes

Broad is the path to destruction
Narrow, the way to life

Crossroads

Diamonds Are Forever

No More Empty Thrones (Mastered)

"Flicker in the Fog"  
This introspective ballad traces the emotional journey from grief to quiet resilience. The narrator reflects on a lost connection, surrounded by fog both literal and metaphorical. Early verses dwell in solitude and memory, with imagery of faded letters and silent rooms. As the song progresses, subtle hope emerges—through shifting skies, warm coffee, and small gestures of healing. The final chorus embraces uncertainty with strength, suggesting that while the pain remains, the path forward is no longer obscured. It’s a meditation on love, loss, and the slow return to self.

Lyrics:

[Intro – Piano Only]  
Soft light spills across the floor  
The night forgets what it came for  

---

[Verse 1]  
Streetlights blink like tired eyes  
I trace your name in window grime  
The silence wraps around my chest  
A borrowed weight I can't divest  

---

[Verse 2]  
Your letter sleeps inside a drawer  
The ink has faded, nothing more  
But every line still breathes your name  
A quiet ache I can't reclaim  

---

[Instrumental – Before Pre-Chorus]  
[Low-register piano pulses, ambient pads swell gently. A distant guitar harmonic flickers in and out. The rhythm is slow, almost hesitant—like a breath held too long.]

---

[Pre-Chorus]  
I still hear you in the static  
Not your voice—just how it felt  

---

[Chorus]  
You were the flicker in the fog  
A warmth I couldn’t hold for long  
Now I walk through quiet rooms  
Learning how to be alone  

---

[Instrumental – After Chorus]  
[Solo piano with ambient textures, slow descending motif in minor key.]

---

[Verse 3]  
The sky begins to shift its shade  
A softer blue behind the grey  
I breathe without expecting pain  
And find some peace in yesterday  

---

[Verse 4]  
The coffee warms my shaking hands  
I smile at strangers when I can  
The world still spins, a little slow  
But I’m not lost—I’m just below  

---

[Pre-Chorus – Reprise]  
I still feel you in the stillness  
Not your touch—just what it meant  

---

[Chorus – Reprise]  
You were the flicker in the fog  
A song I couldn’t sing too long  
Now I hum the parts I know  
Learning how to let you go  

---

[Instrumental – After Chorus Reprise]  
[Piano arpeggios with soft strings, subtle guitar swells, hint of rhythmic pulse.]

---

[Bridge]  
And if the morning ever asks  
I’ll say I loved you in the cracks  
Where light got in and time stood still  
Where loss became a kind of will  

---

[Instrumental – After Bridge]  
[Full string section rises, piano builds in warmth, ambient pads shimmer.]

---

[Final Chorus]  
You were the flicker in the fog  
But now I see beyond the smog  
I walk toward something undefined  
Not quite healed—but not confined  

---

[Outro – Piano Only]  
One final chord, held in air  
A single note that doesn’t care  
If you return or fade away  
I’ll find my rhythm anyway

Back then... back then...
(Back then, back then)

Young blood, wild heart
Didn't know shit about the world
Thought I had it all figured out
Look at me now, damn
Still learning how to breathe right
Still finding pieces of myself
Scattered on these club floors

If I could reach back
Through all this bass and smoke
Tell that kid what's coming
Would I even want to know?

Back then I was running blind
Now I'm dancing through the pain
Back then I was so damn sure
Now I'm learning how to change
(Back then, back then)
These lights hit different now
(Back then, back then)
But I'm still here somehow

Sixteen, thought I knew love
Every heartbreak felt like dying
Now I laugh at all that crying
Fuck, I was so naive
But maybe that was beautiful
Before the world got heavy
Before I learned to carry
All this weight alone

If I could reach back
Through all this bass and smoke
Tell that kid what's coming
Would I even want to know?

Back then I was running blind
Now I'm dancing through the pain
Back then I was so damn sure
Now I'm learning how to change
(Back then, back then)
These lights hit different now
(Back then, back then)
But I'm still here somehow

Sometimes I miss that ignorance
That fearless way I used to move
Now every step feels calculated
But maybe that's how we improve

(Back then, back then)
(Who was I? Who was I?)
(Back then, back then)
(Still alive, still alive)

Back then I was running blind
Now I'm dancing through the pain
Back then I was so damn sure
Now I'm learning how to change
(Back then, back then)
These lights hit different now
(Back then, back then)
But I'm still here somehow
Still here somehow
Still dancing somehow

Back then... back then...
(Back then, back then)
Still here... still here...

Back Then

Your musical journey through the 'Arcanum' EP ends with 'Coda'. A two-parted dance tune, inhering modern urban club influences as well as links to half-forgotten themes of dusted disco. Although this piece holds a story of his own, it marks the luminous ending of something greater we simply named 'Arcanum'.
