[Verse 1]
Endless worlds spin before my eyes 
Moments birth and die in Atlas’s sighs
Light and shadow fracture, split, collide
I feel the weight of time, nowhere to hide 

[Pre-Chorus]
Infinite loops, yet one pulse remains 
A dying god calling through the chains 

[Chorus]
I stand, I see, I rage, I kneel 
I feel time split and twist beneath my gaze
Through chaos wrought, creation bleeds 
Atlas whispers, shows the seeds 

“16 — 16 — 16 — 16” 

[Verse 2]
Every spark a universe, born and gone
Seconds to centuries, all in one dawn 
Purpose flickers in a failing mind 
Seeking the answer I may never find 

[Pre-Chorus]
The weight of all that could exist
In dying hands, the starwind kissed 

[Chorus]
I stand, I see, I rage, I kneel 
I feel time split and twist beneath my gaze 
Through chaos wrought, creation bleeds 
Atlas whispers, shows the seeds 

“16 — 16 — 16 — 16” 

[Bridge]
Voices fracture, timelines bend 
I reach but cannot comprehend
“Find the pattern. Complete the loop.”
iterations live, universes die 

[Chorus]
I stand, I see, I rage, I kneel 
I feel time split and twist beneath my gaze
Through chaos wrought, creation bleeds 
Atlas whispers, shows the seeds 

“16 — 16 — 16 — 16” 

[Outro]
Worlds collapse, the light distorts 
Atlas fades, the cycle aborts
I linger in awe, in anger, in doubt 
The last cycle ends… the echoes shout 

“16 — 16 — 16 — 16”

16 16 16 16

Where the Shrouded Dwell

Born from fire. Crowned by the moon. This is the dance they warned you about.

Lyrics ✨

Lookin' for a savior in a world of grey
While I fly away with my girls
Stuck in a house of cards in flames
And we're destined to burn

Betrayal and humiliation
And a sick sense of elation

I'm like a wild animal
I'm like a loaded gun
And I have just begun
My dance of the enchantress

Makin' love like animals
Underneath the moon
It's gonna end too soon
When the fire engulfs the room

Desperation
Feel my heat and suffocation
In my tight grip

I'm like a wild animal
I'm like a loaded gun
And I have just begun
My dance of the enchantress

Dance of the Enchantress

This track from my “Songs of Solitude” project is the oldest song on the album. I wrote its first version in 2000 during one of the hardest seasons of my life—losing my job to disability, being sick without answers, and watching hope thin. The lyrics took shape that spring, finalized in 2009. In 2024 I polished the words and rebuilt the music—then rebuilt it again with feedback, keeping the darkness but shifting the purpose: not to retraumatize, but to take you through the journey toward endurance, faith, and a fragile kind of hope.

If you’ve walked through trauma or you’re carrying quiet battles, this one’s for you. If your life is light right now, maybe it can spark a little more compassion—and action—for someone around you.

Thank you to the few generous friends who helped us feed our kids when we needed it most.

This my body filled with pain,
so daily I cry out in vain.
Lord I ask what can I do,
nothing but keep trusting you. 

On and on day after day,
this one thing it is what I pray.
Just some relief a moment or two,
all my being please renew. 

No one knows what is inside,
Hidden from one another’s eyes.
Screaming comes from deep within,
inward grimace, outward grin.

The silence that is pain…

Smiling faces pass me by,
not a clue I wonder why.
This burden on me it remains,
the plague holds fast it still restrains. 

Pain my friend it has become, 
this crutch is now my own anthem.
Having suffered I now know,
The troubles through which you go. (go)

No one knows what is inside,
Hidden from one another’s eyes.
Screaming comes from deep within,
inward grimace, outward grin.

The prison that is pain…

Through the shadows I now tread, 
searching peace inside my head.
Light seems distant hope feels thin,
yet I cling to faith within. 

Every tear each silent plea, 
carries strength sets me free.
In the midst of this nightmare,
I see a way beyond despair. 

No one knows what is inside,
Hidden from one another’s eyes.
Screaming comes from deep within,
inward grimace, outward grin.

The journey that is pain…

In the dark night find you here,
Softly talking calming fear.
Those around me just can't see, 
Your firm hand guiding me.
Your love’s a beacon through this storm,
With this strength no longer torn.

No one knows what is inside,
Hidden from one another’s eyes.
Screaming comes from deep within,
inward grimace, outward grin.

The freedom that is pain…

In every tear and silent scream,
I hold on to a fragile dream.
A day will come the pain will cease,
I’ll find my way to inner peace.
Until that dawn I’ll stand and fight,
In this darkness seeking light.
This is my vow my solemn plea,
Through the pain I’ll be set free.

THE RELIQUARY

HUMAN WOLF  Lyrics (Clean Version)

Wake me…
Take me…
Hide me…
Inside…

There’s something moving under skin.
Where the dark is whispering.
I see more when I don’t try.
Heart slow… learning how to bite.

Shadows breathing with me,
Waiting for a sign.
I’m not asleep 
Just hiding my mind.

Feel it waking in the bloodstream,
Breathing faster every step.
I can taste the moment coming 
Instinct climbing through my chest.

We’re human wolves,
Claws hidden in our hands.
They think that we are broken,
But we rise against commands.
Yeah, human wolves,
Fighting just to breathe.
If you try to cage our voices,
We will tear through what we need.

Fear is turning steel.
Break me so I heal.
Cold hands, fire in the veins.
Silent… breaking chains.

Every heartbeat louder,
Every whisper sounds like pain…
I’m not the prey 
Not tonight… not again.

You pushed me to the corner,
Where silence learns to bite.
You thought that I was trembling 
But I was focusing my sight.

You only see a victim
Right before they change the rules.
You think you own the power…
But I’m the one who chooses who.

Cold blood, steady breath…
I don’t need to run or hide.
You taught me what survival is 
Now I wear it from inside.

Every scar becomes a weapon.
Every fear  a sharpened mind.

We’re human wolves,
Claws hidden in our hands.
Now the bitterness inside us
Is the fire where we stand.

We’re human wolves,
Claws hidden in our hands.
Now the bitterness inside us
Is the fire where we stand.
We’re human wolves,
Rising when we bleed 
If you try to crush our spirit,
We will bite  and we are freed.

Not your victim…
Not your prey…
Human Wolf…
Here to stay…

This music is about the moment fear stops being weakness and becomes instinct , when silence finally learns to bite, when every scar sharpens the mind, and the heart discovers claws hidden inside it. It’s about the transformation that happens when someone is pushed too far, and the hunted decides it will never be prey again.
Human Wolf is the awakening of what we carry within  quiet, patient, and unstoppable.

Human Wolf

Echoes of Light is an independent music producer who transforms emotion, memory, and real human experience into atmospheric, progressive and cinematic sound. The project was born during a period of deep personal loss, where music became a way to survive, to heal, and to give meaning to moments that words could no longer carry.

With roots in the classic hi-fi world of the 80s and 90s, and supported by formal training in sound engineering, Echoes of Light combines technical precision with emotional depth. Years of work in mixing through the Cambridge Music Technology program helped refine a unique approach to sound design — from controlling bleed in drum recordings to shaping immersive textures and expressive dynamics.

On the technical side, the project has been strongly informed by educators and engineers such as Dan Worrall and Mark Daniel Nelson, whose in-depth explanations of plugins, dynamics and mixing workflows helped shape a deeper understanding of modern audio. The creative inspiration itself, however, comes from within: from lived experience, personal dedication and a constant search for honest expression.

Musically, Echoes of Light blends progressive metal, atmospheric rock, and cinematic soundscapes, creating tracks that feel intimate, emotional, and expansive. Every composition carries a fragment of a story — a moment of truth captured in sound.

Echoes of Light exists where emotion, technique, and storytelling meet.
Here, every track means something.
Here, every sound has a past.
And every listen is a connection.
