Lyrics

I’m a river running dry,
Once so full, now asking why.
The current’s slow, the flow is thin,
What once was clear, now lost within.

Drifting farther every day,
Pieces of me wash away.
Like a song I used to know,
Now fading echoes, soft and slow.

The sky above, it turns to gray,
The colors of my world decay.
I reach for thoughts, but they slip through,
Like shadows I once thought I knew.

Drifting farther every day,
Pieces of me wash away.
Like a song I used to know,
Now fading echoes, soft and slow.

I’m an empty page where words once lay,
Lost in the silence of yesterday.
The lines blur out, the meaning’s gone,
A fading memory, moving on.

Drifting farther every day,
Pieces of me wash away.
Like a song I used to know,
Now fading echoes, soft and slow.

The river stills, the song grows faint,
Words once bright, now shadowed paint.
In silence now, I start to see,
What’s left of who I used to be.

What's Left of Who I Used to Be

"Break the Mask" is an empowering dance anthem that transforms personal struggle into triumph. Beginning with a soft, emotional tone, the song explores the invisible battles we face behind the masks we wear. As the beat builds, it erupts into a high-energy, pulsing chorus—an invitation to rise up, shed the pain, and reclaim your strength. With haunting melodies, powerful lyrics, and a thumping rhythm, Break the Mask turns vulnerability into victory and reminds us that healing begins when we let our true selves shine.

“Path Unknown” is an energetic and atmospheric track that takes you on a metaphorical journey through life’s challenges. While the song describes walking a rocky trail during a storm, it represents much more—an exploration of resilience, growth, and overcoming obstacles. The storm mirrors the trials we face in life, while the path we walk symbolizes our choices and determination. With powerful guitar riffs, dynamic drums, and swirling synths, this song captures the emotional intensity of navigating through adversity. It’s a reminder that even in the hardest times, the storm will pass, and we will rise stronger.

“Laniakea’s Vast Embrace” is a cosmic ballad that journeys through the gravitational mysteries of the universe, using the metaphor of love and the Great Attractor to explore unseen forces that guide us. With poetic imagery and a mystical male vocal, the song drifts through space-pop ambiance and builds into a cinematic rock chorus. Its mood is both contemplative and awe-struck, evoking the gentle pull of destiny, the unknown, and the heart’s magnetic longing.

“Hummingbird” is a breathtaking fusion of elegance and intensity, honoring the dual nature of this tiny winged being, delicate, iridescent, and fleeting, yet fierce and fueled by cosmic energy. The song begins in an ethereal, cinematic world where a soprano voice soars above a lush orchestral landscape led by cellos, horns, and timpani. At the heart of the song, a break transforms this reverent hymn into a roaring rock surge. Then, like breath returning to stillness, the music gently fades back to the sacred hush, mirroring the bird’s final drift into silence. A love letter to presence, beauty, and wild transformation.

Graffiti on the Edge of Time is a dreamy, mechanical, and introspective journey through the layered architecture of memory and identity. Told in poetic fragments, the song imagines a world where different versions of oneself—past, present, and future—leave cryptic messages across time: in dreams, on walls, in songs, and symbols only the soul can recognize. It evokes the feeling of stumbling upon forgotten truths and realizing they were written by you all along.
The soundscape blends lo-fi dream pop with soft mechanical rhythms, ambient textures, and nostalgic atmospheres—like walking through a quiet city at night, haunted by echoes of your own becoming. At once emotional and surreal, this song closes a circle with quiet wonder and a spark of cosmic rebellion.

“The Uncertainty Hop” is a retro-futuristic anthem that fuses arcade nostalgia with quantum metaphor, echoing the unpredictable beauty of life’s jumps, slips, and rewrites. Inspired by memories of childhood afternoons playing Q-Bert and the mystery of Qubits, this track leaps between time, meaning, and memory. It’s playful, philosophical, and deeply human, celebrating the courage to navigate a world where truth is shifting and perfection is an illusion. With clever lyrics, neon groove, and a spirit of joyful exploration, it invites listeners to dance with the unknown and find rhythm in the flux.

"Unfinished Cathedral Heart" is a sweeping, poetic rock ballad that blends vulnerability and defiance. It’s the sound of scaffolding and stained glass, of holy echoes in broken spaces, and of love still being built. The lyrics paint an architectural metaphor for intimacy—crooked beams, fractured saints, whispered hallelujahs—while the music swells with cathedral-like reverb and storm-lit energy. Whether it’s a sanctuary under construction or a beautiful ruin, this song celebrates the sacred work of love: flawed, deliberate, and still rising.

Unfinished Cathedral Heart

"Soul Leaves" is an upbeat, heartwarming folk-pop anthem that introduces the listener to the metaphor of soul-leaves—those luminous expressions of our spirit that grow from experience, emotion, and truth. With poetic storytelling and singable choruses, the song blends inspiration with gentle education, reminding us that every moment we live contributes to our soul's blossoming. It’s a celebration of inner growth, divine authenticity, and the quiet beauty of being human. Perfect for open-hearted gatherings, soulful playlists, or anyone on the path of becoming.
