I'm fading away
becoming one with the waves
washing away my humility
I closed my eyes for what seemed like seconds
millions of years in retrospect
only faint whispers of revolution
a vain attempt at reconstruction
breaking walls that spread the divide
in the land of the blind its the king with the one eye
the rest are left behind
Wondering why
wondering why
why would he leave us to die
I slowly decay
become one with the earth
from whence I came
but my mind remains
although it's stayed the same
it's just the world that's changed
Incorruptible in method
but dauntless in diversity
(Growing hunger from the diabolist)
it's all coming together
despite the signs, we will be left behind
I choose to resist
beyond the realm of a god
we will coexist
you have been lied to
you all live in a malevolent dream
don't let the lies that guide you
become your grip on reality
closed minds and empty hearts
filled with zealous thoughts
and yet you continue to march
slowly fulfilling your every need
without remorse or empathy
you say your among-st peers
then why do you all seem to live in fear
only dreamers dream the worst
some where down the line
you have been coerced
Keep it up
Never let it go
with every breath you take
you drift
I can not identify
I can not find my way
drifting eternally
into the vast
tranquility
I can see the other side...

Featuring Ricky Sotelo
One of the best modern prog metal groups out there... Even their freshmen years were absolutely fantastic... Great EP... One of the only bands I'm truly saddened by, knowing I don't have their music on vinyl... "hint, hint" enemyofthenight
Streamlining their post-metal sprawl through a sharper melodic focus, the Scottish juggernauts' third LP is labyrinthine yet approachable. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 25, 2024
I was quickly overwhelmed the moment I listened to "Interlude." Oriental atmosphere reminiscent of Egypt is very intertwined through all. Supreme Truth has something in common with Linkin Park's Meteora. Catsfist
