The Joy Of Deceleration {session one}

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Snowflakes fall from heights unknown
Born from ashes, not alone
Never ending cycle, can't go home
Rain you see...
[Verse 2]
They dance, the air, a positron
Each with flare, fwumpth they're all gone
Without a single fkin care
Slush upon the sea...
[Chorus]
Why this endless war forevermore
Why this endless freeze?
Why this war our kindred melt
Flick a switch we all bleed
[Verse 3]
Incinerators hidden dirt and grime
Drain in this endless hurt
A war begins, which no one wins
fought to the very end
[Verse 4]
But you'll all see, that shrinking snow
and never truly see
The pain in eyes as they go
and meet their watery grave...
[Chorus]
Why this endless war forevermore
Why, Why this endless freeze?
Why this war our kindred melt
Flick a switch an we all bleed
[Verse 3)
No more until the grounds collapse
the clouds open and the turn cracks
that folding motion war begins
to recreate perpetual sin
[Verse 4)
An nothing came, from nothing lost
because you never saw the cost
as cold turns to perma frost
you only feel the heat.

[Bridge]
There's blizzards you know inside
there's the ones that you cant trust
but all of which are Sunnyside up
[Chorus]
Why this endless war forevermore
Why this endless freeze?
Why this war our kindred melt
Flick a switch an we all bleed
[Bridge]
There's blizzards you know inside
there's the ones you cant trust
but all of which are Sunnyside up
[Chorus]
Why this endless war forevermore
Why this endless freeze?
Why this war our kindred melt
Flick a switch an we all bleed

War of the Snowflakes by TheTalker

second track of the Album FADED LOVE LETTERS, This is a vulnerable track with a stable trap atmosphere and vulnerable lyrics. it shows how a lover's eyecontact can mesmerize!

Your Eyes

Is Christmas the snowflakes that fall
Or laughter’s echo through decked halls
Maybe it's the gifts we receive
Or simply stories we believe

What is Christmas? A carol that we sing
A winter's moment, or a timeless spring
Is it the warmth we share by the fireside
Or a world where our hope, goes beyond the yuletide

Could it be the cold and crisp air
Or moments with family we share
Maybe it's the smiles we see
Or the spirit of harmony 
In Christmas, find joy, not in season or date,
A moment for hearts to celebrate.
In Christmas, love shines, not bound by time,
A reason for kindness, a rhythm, a rhyme.

In every hand that's held, in kindness we find,
In every act of giving, humanity's bind.
It's in the quiet moments, in laughter's sound,
In every small gesture, where Christmas is found.

What Is Christmas?

Drifting from the Dawn" is the second single by the Gassmann Projekt, a melodic rock track that combines emotional depth with dynamic instrumentation. With hauntingly poetic lyrics and a powerful, memorable chorus, the song explores themes of time, loss, and the search for meaning in fleeting moments. The blend of evocative verses, captivating guitar solos, and a harmony-rich instrumental section makes it a standout for fans of heartfelt, anthemic rock.
