RENOUNCE
Those nights like a fever, 
those dreams stained with shadow. 
Those mornings I waited, 
like a beggar for mercy. 
Those empty days falling, 
those days, still haunted by sorrow. 
Still unending. 
Do I? 
Do I truly renounce it? 
I speak the words, 
yet I do not know them all. 
I renounce it, 
yet my soul betrays it all. 
I renounce, 
yet why don’t I feel it at all? 
Blue eyes once bright, 
now drowned in dark silence. 
Those prayers will never be answered. 
To the trees I call your name and ask: 
Do I? 
Do I still renounce it? 
I speak the words, 
though I have known them all. 
I renounce it, 
and my soul remains still. 
I renounce, 
and inside me lives my fall. 
And still, I do not renounce it.

An Insignificant Dissonance

Renounce

BENEATH THE DYING SKY 
Sometimes when night is falling and the Moon foretells you’ll come
Like the wraith I used to know
You rise beneath this fragile heart and feed upon my dread
I’m lost in silence far below
I watch my face across the mirror as the lines begin to spread
As if it’s waiting for the end
With lowered eyes you pour me drops of bitter sin
And pull me down below
I’ve got a feeling that the truth has faded into haze
The glass betrays the face I used to hide
You break to jagged pieces as the shadows pierce my skin
Their echoes fill the air again
Your hollow breath escapes my lungs and poisons all within
I breathe it in without a care
I watch my face across the mirror as the lines begin to spread
As if it’s waiting for the end
With lowered eyes you pour me drops of bitter sin
And pull me down below
I’ve got a feeling that the truth has faded into haze
The glass betrays the face I used to hide


Beneth the Dying Sky

Renounce (Classic Rock Edition)

Midnight Fire

She came to me from my dreams, though I never called her name, no, no
She came to tear my soul apart, to strip the flesh from fragile bones
A presence sweet yet poison through, a hidden rope beneath my veins
She wrapped me in sugar glaze and a flutter of her lashes rain
The morning star began to rise, a cruel light behind her eyes

And till I gave myself away, I opened every hidden door
I chose to lose myself in shadow, to disappear and ask for more
Oh, she burns like midnight fire, and I'm so closer every time
For the devil always circles back to the ones who crave the crime
In her whisper lives the downfall, in her touch the breaking line
I am the captive she keeps her dead, I am the dog she calls mine

She carved a mark into my heart, a deep engraving dark and raw
She spoke with voices not her own, while hunger's moving in her glow
Every promise cracked to ashes, every truth became a blade
Through a smile a hushed destruction crept into the life I made

And still I leaned into the ruin, too weak to call it truly mine
Her ghost became my only compass, dragging me down beyond the line
Oh, she burns like midnight fire, and I'm so closer every time
For the devil always circles back to the ones who crave the crime
In her whisper lives the downfall, in her touch the breaking line
I am the captive she keeps her dead, I am the dog she calls mine

Oh, she burns like midnight fire, and I'm so closer every time
For the devil always circles back to the ones who crave the crime
In her form becomes her kingdom, let her reign in smoke and wine
I am the ember she keeps waking, I am the spark she calls mine

Hi! I'm Adder Merto. WSEMSZ is an emanation of fragments of the structure in which our reality is immersed. In a way that is difficult to define, a small part of this structure is amplified in the human mind and becomes visible in the form of ordered sequences of symbols that make up music. This process takes place outside of consciousness or with very little participation, so you never know what melody WSEMSZ will play. The phenomenon is bidirectional. The notation of the formula in the form of music loaded into the mind interacts with both the mind itself and the structure of which we are a part. I hope that each of you has a chance to experience the phenomenon when music changes your way of thinking and directly affects the reality around you.
