Hologram 28 - Come Alive

Do you even remember
The time when we first met?
And we were getting along,
We had a friendship so strong
Like nothing could end it.
You told me you were a loner
I told you I’ve been alone a hundred times
When I needed someone
And life wasn’t fun
And I thought I couldn’t take it

And I can’t take these
Changed situations
Can’t take these awkward moments
And strained relations
We were so happy
But something happened
You never told me what’s wrong
And then we played along until we lost our patience

So now things are different
I put on a smiling face to hide
The things that can’t be explained
The words that got so ingrained
In something deep inside
We made no effort
We couldn’t even look eye-to-eye at all
But time killed the rest,
Put our friendship to test
And I don’t even recall, don’t wanna even recall
These crazy changed situations
Can’t take these awkward moments
And strained relations
We were so happy
But something happened
You never told me what’s wrong
And then we played along until we lost our patience
And I won’t regret it all
Go on and forget it all
And I won’t regret it all
Go on and forget it all

We were so happy
But something happened
You never told me what’s wrong and I just played along until we lost our patience
And I can’t take these
Changed situations
Can’t take these awkward moments
And strained relations

It’s not the same
It’s not the same
It’s not the same
It’s not the same
It’s not the same
It’s not the same

Changed Situations

Sabar, our third studio album was released worldwide on 28th February 2018. Drawing inspiration from the process of creation and growth, Sabar is a melange of intense emotional experiences, expressed through poignant songwriting and contemporary - classical compositions. The title is an adaptation of the Arabic word 'Sabr' signifying 'patience' and is a musical testimony to the idea of holding your own ground and allowing the universe to present all opportunities for growth. The songs are written from a wide variety of perspectives on gratitude, grief, contempt, perseverance, inspiration, and aspiration.
