lyrics

Here's a request I have:
I would like to trade my tiredness for rest.
And since shutting my eyes is no help to that.
I should ask for the silence which everyone deserves.
You should pardon my ignorance, when your arrogance is bliss.
I try to focus on your reasons and their meanings.
Until you are finally ready.
I have nothing left to say.
And I'll save my thoughts for the season,
when you finally come clean with yourself.
My words are dwelling on my tongue.
Resting for the fight that’s about to come.
Preparing for a battle that I’ve already won.
That you’ve already lost before it even begun.
A well deserved fix.
A quick nap to recover.
A short break to regain the power.
A helping friend to escape the sorrow.
And I’ll be back, we'll all be back tomorrow.
Well, will we be back tomorrow?
And you still try to explain all the stuff you don't even understand yourself.
Still reading from those notes written in invisible ink.
And sadly you've put so much pressure on that pen.
That when you are finally ready to turn the page.
You have to read everything all over again.
Let’s start from scratch.
But this time without mistakes.
And on the fork of failing, you will choose the right path.
And on the edge of defeat, you'll now choose to prevail.
We’re what we want to be, not what we’re told to be.
My words are dwelling on my tongue.
Resting for the fight that’s about to come.
Preparing for a battle that I’ve already won.
This is your chance!
Grab it by the neck!
Drag it through the water!
And take back what’s yours!

Hearing the songs while reading the narrative behind the lyrics, I felt overwhelmed by this tragic story in which humans and artificial intelligence couldn't coexist side by side. Their reciprocal annihilation was inevitable. Except one "sole survivor, in a ship filled with memories. She had become the proof of Earth, proof that life had existed there, a voice for all the species and beauty we once knew". A dystopian concept dressed up in brilliant musicianship! @Slevin, thanks, I owe it to you! Umbra Cornuta

The perfect sequel to their brilliant debut Orientation. This band got my attention for years, not even sure if they are still around. Poison The Well influenced and very dark and deep hardcore right here, with the little twist of atmospheric elements. Necrolepsy
