Welcome to the end of everyone
Where are you gonna be tonight
It's in fashion to be passionate, love 
Do you believe in that big lie

There's an army out there dancing alone
The bars are empty every night
Don't you wanna feel the neon glow
Don't you wanna feel alive

Where did love go
(Far away)
(Far away)
Where did love go
Too far from me

Welcome to the empty space in your mind
The digital overflow 
You can fill it with whatever you like
A cowboy with a new lasso

There's an army out there dancing alright
You're sitting with your cats at home
Don't you wanna light the fire tonight
Don't you wanna know

Where did love go
(Far away)
(Far away)
Where did love go
Too far from me

I'd rather be dead than boring
I'd rather be dead than boring

Where did love go
Where did love go
Where did love go
Where did love go
Too far from me

Lose Yourself

Immerse yourself in Aurora Dreams, a ten-track sonic journey crafted for moments of reflection, relaxation, and quiet introspection. From the cinematic tension of Silent Pursuit to the heartwarming intimacy of We Drift Together, each track flows seamlessly into the next, blending soft jazz, chillout lounge, ambient textures, and dreamy instrumentation.

Glass Tides

This is how I work, how I live, how I make anything.

I don’t skim. I go under. I stay.

It’s not obsession. It’s rhythm.

I submerge so I don’t disappear.

Submerge
