Exclave

“nothingchanges” is a raw, emotionally charged dive into the heart of modern emo/nugaze, gritty guitars, haunting vocals, and lyrics that confront the numb cycle of routine and regret. Perfect for fans of emotionally resonant, nostalgia-laced rock that cuts deep and lingers. It’s the soundtrack for anyone stuck in the spiral, looking for release.

Lyrics by Mark Xenophontos 

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

Can't escape this digital hell
Something's broken, can't you tell?

I can't help but fall away
Heart pounds harder in the heat of shame
Need to save my soul, break these chains
Find me crawling through the decay

I need you father, need to believe
Too long lost in doubt and deceit
Just a man breaking down, won't retreat
But you won't win, I keep breathing

The algorithm bleeds
When real souls break free
You won't be the death of me
Won't be the death of me

Kill the screen, destroy this face
Enough is enough, done with this race
(Enough is enough!)
You took my mind, my time, my soul
Left me with an empty hole

I'm climbing out, I'm climbing out
Taking control, taking control

Empty promises on glowing screens
Fed me poison through machines
Chasing ghosts and losing sleep
Trading souls for dopamine

Addiction burns like acid rain
Digital chains around my brain
Breaking through the static noise
Learning to trust my voice

The devil can weep
When redemption runs deep
You won't be the death of me
Won't be the death of me

Kill the screen, destroy this face
Enough is enough, done with this race
(Enough is enough!)
You stole my peace, you stole my soul
Left me in an empty hole

I'm climbing out, I'm climbing out
Breaking the mold, breaking the mold

I'll walk to nowhere, breathe real air
Better than your digital snare
Sorry world, I ain't buying
What you're selling while I'm dying

Kill the screen, destroy this face
Enough is enough, you've lost this race
(You've lost this race!)
You had my mind, my time, my soul
But left me in an empty hole

I'm climbing out, I'm climbing out
(Rising up!)
Taking control, taking control
(Watch me unfold!)

Find me where the silence calls
I rise from digital decay
This is resurrection day
Resurrection day




Resurrection Day

The hardest, rawest track on the album. Riff-heavy, aggressive, and defiant. A warning: your grip is your downfall.

The Cost of Control

“ALIVE Again” is a high-energy, emotionally charged track that blends electronic pop and dance music with uplifting vocals and dynamic production. The song opens with an atmospheric intro that quickly builds into a pulsing rhythm, setting an anthemic tone. A driving beat and layered synths create a sense of urgency and momentum, while the lyrics center around themes of rebirth, resilience, and rediscovery of self.

The vocalist delivers a passionate performance, with a tone that shifts from introspective to empowered as the song progresses. The chorus is a standout, with a soaring melody that feels both liberating and cathartic—like breaking through emotional barriers to reclaim vitality.

Musically, the track leans on rich textures, tight percussive elements, and a powerful drop that makes it club- and festival-ready. Its emotional intensity and celebratory vibe make it ideal for moments of personal victory or reawakening.
