[LYRICS]

surprise!
i'm still alive?
and designated: 
"a problem."
[ IF YOU DON'T REPLY- I'M JUMPING. TONIGHT. ]
i guess-
the time i've spent?
all seven years were just rotten...
[ LEAVE ME ON READ TO FIND ME DEAD. ]

i seek sleep...
[ I DON'T HAVE FRIENDS. I DON'T MAKE PLANS. ]
to numb my pain
[ AND HONESTLY? ANY DAY COULD BE MY LAST. ]
when i don't eat...
 
i just bleed...
[ SMOKING TOO MUCH. NICOTINE AGAIN FOR LUNCH. ]
and still-
[ WHY CAN'T LOVE TASTE LIKE A LUCKY STRIKE? ]
i scream in every dream...

tonight-
these words hit just right...
like every lyric was:
"locked-in."
[ I SAID I WAS FINE-BUT, MAYBE... I LIED? ]
duress-
can't bless this mess...
my talent's being forgotten.
[ HEY,  DO YOU WANT TO HEAR MY THOUGHTS ON SUICIDE? ]

no one has ever seen an authentic version of me
truth is:
i'm disconnected...
your world is just some hell i've slept in for years...



i hate it here...



WE ARE THE VISIONS OF YOUR LUCID DREAMS 
FRAYED DISTORTED EDGES 
DEATH 
REBARBATIVE THINGS
[ so long... ]
ANOTHER YEAR
[ darling... ]
PLEASE-
LET THE END BE NEAR

WE ARE THE FOOTNOTES ON YOUR SUICIDE NOTE 
SCRATCHED IN DESPERATE AFTERTHOUGHT 
SUCCINCT AND REMOTE
[ melancholy... ]
I ONLY HOPE
I ONLY COPE

what am i still doing here?

[ I LIKE THE TASTE OF MY NOSE BLEED 
IT'S SANGUINE IRONY ]

why do i still linger here?

[ HERE'S DEMO II
ALL I'LL LEAVE FOR YOU-
OF MY SUICIDE DIARY ]

the light inside is broken
but i still work...

AUGAUXIA

lyrics: 

im taking off all your armor
you hate being exposed 

eat me up just like the cancer
how do i get some Relief? 

you haven't said much did something happen
i gave it the best shot that i could

are you in a better state of mind this time around
how do i get myself relief

terrified of your emotions
nobody taught you to speak your mind

why would i pick up all your calls
i wish i could fly to see over your walls

its so dark out shine the light
it only gets better if you think you're right

twist the knife, cut me up
get ready this time cause i'm calling your bluff

think i'm indestructible maybe i am
i try to be better than what i am

Relief

The Conjuring

The Anix is the electronic-rock project of Los Angeles composer / producer Brandon Smith. Combining his love of cinematic sci-fi, anime and comic books with synthesizers, electronic programming, alternative rock, powerful vocal hooks and anthemic choruses, The Anix creates a visionary future of art and music.

Originally founded in 2000 by brothers Brandon & Logan Smith with long time friend Chris Dinger, the group toured the Hollywood rock club circuit for several years. After writing hundreds of songs and playing countless shows, the band signed a deal in 2008 to record their first full length studio album titled Demolition City. The band then landed a deal with The Diesel Management Group and toured throughout Europe on the “Rocket Science Tour” with electronic masterminds Apoptygma Berzerk.

In 2011 The Anix signed a record deal with Cleopatra Records to record their second studio album titled Sleepwalker. In 2016, The Anix began the process of reinventing themselves, shifting away from a touring band into a studio project. After a full year of development, the group emerged with Ephemeral in March 2017 as their 2nd album on Cleopatra Records.

In 2018, The Anix completed their metamorphosis from band to solo project as front-man & songwriter Brandon Smith signed with FiXT, the artist-owned/operated independent record label of electronic-rock pioneer Klayton (Celldweller, Scandroid, Circle of Dust). Focusing on releasing regular singles throughout the year, The Anix is poised to embrace the future.
