Violet Sky 04:02
In my Head I see A false perception reality with violet skies And faded lines I try To open my brain To all the things that we can’t explain and the water it takes me To where horizons lay Falling into a paradise Where I don’t have to feel a thing Like it’s a fantasy Falling into a state of mind Where I can be up in the clouds Without the fear of crashing down The world Looks like its been Painted by an artist’s hand who knows what they hide Beautiful lies And I know At some point I’ll have to return to the ground But not right now Falling into a paradise Where I don’t have to feel a thing Like it’s a fantasy Falling into a state of mind Where I can be up in the clouds Without the fear of crashing down Raise me up To where all the violet skies Shine so bright And I won't come down As long as the horizon's mine My peace of mind Falling into a paradise Where I don’t have to feel a thing Like it’s a fantasy Falling into a state of mind Where I can be up in the clouds Without the fear of crashing down

Embrace 04:00
You make it hard to feel like things will be okay Sometimes I swear a demon really wears your face And I feel so sick and so torn The thread we've been hanging by has become worn And how Do you Expect of me to follow you through galaxies When you rearrange the stars Keeping me from getting so far And how Am I Supposed to compromise my fight To feel something good for once For once And I've always had this feeling The two of us have lost our meaning And you can't blame me for when the spark goes out And don't pretend you were unaware of my doubt And how Do you Expect of me to follow you through galaxies When you rearrange the stars Keeping me from getting so far And how Am I Supposed to compromise my fight To feel something good for once For once My heart no longer cries for you I know that that breaks you in two Now it's time for us to say goodbye Cause we're all out of time Oh, we're all out of time Oh, we're all out of time We're all out of time How Do you Expect of me to follow you through galaxies When you rearrange the stars Keeping me from getting so far And how Am I Supposed to compromise my fight To feel something good for once For once Good for once

Ghost 05:34
Excuse my pessimistic ways I feel I’m born this way I’m just trying my best But the energy has left I feel your spirit from within And I just can’t lose This feeling When the world stops and I breath you in Please don’t say goodbye I need you by my side To hold me tight I know this light of ours could be so bright In my paranoid mind I’m so terrified You’ll leave me behind With a broken heart and watered eyes And I know it’s a lie But it still hurts inside The thought of you Forever Leaving my sight Please don’t say goodbye I need you by my side To hold me tight I know this light of ours could be so bright Please just give me time To prove my trust for you is alive You’re the best part of home Darling I’ll never let you go I know you’d never be so cold But sometimes I still get chills in my bones Darling I love you so More than you'll ever know I know that you would never be so cold But I still get chills in my bones And I don’t know why It hurts so bad inside I know that you would never be so cold But I still get chills in my bones And I don’t know why It hurts so bad inside

Lunacy 04:52
Even wide a wake I still dream all day And hide my face To escape the pain That burns inside my chest Night and day From my soul to yours I’m not here anymore I’ve lost my Ever loving mind I can’t seem to keep My eyes on a prize I run away To escape real life The pure taste of time Sends chills right down My spine I ignored the signs And became naive With self-decline From my soul to yours I’m not here anymore I’ve lost my Ever loving mind I can’t seem to keep My eyes on a prize I run away To escape real life I wished I'd love myself Before the world tried to drag me down With hands that come from the ground And feel my soul crying out My demons They know me too well I try so hard to avoid their eyes But sometimes I’m too tired to run And have no choice but to let myself go numb Don’t feed into their strength Cause you will never be the same Filled with sorrow and false control Lose all perception of hope Don’t feed into their strength Cause you will never be the same Filled with hatred and seeing red You’ll never learn to understand

Void 05:37
Blood in my eyes From sleepless nights Tossing and turning From fear of the light A bottomless pit For the cursed and the dammed My life slips from my own hands Demons arise From the inside They're breaking out again I feel them crawling under my skin I’m lost in outer space My heart is bleeding out Can someone hear me Gone without a trace Swallowed by the dark Please save my heart Sleepless nights Bloodshot eyes Feeling buried An empty void-like mind I’m locked inside This cage they designed Tortured to no end to smile and lie The air is thin I’m barley breathing Hanging by an invisible line I try to fight With all I have But sometimes I swear My demons will win again I’m lost in outer space My heart is bleeding out Can someone hear me Gone without a trace Swallowed by the dark Please save my heart I’m lost in outer space My heart is bleeding out Can someone hear me Gone without a trace Swallowed by the dark Please save my heart I hope the world’s had its fun By putting me in this rut I sometimes count to ten To keep from losing it The fire in my soul Burned out long ago And now I live in fear That I will die with no one here My demons My demons Can someone hear me My demons My demons Please save my heart

about

We are thrilled to finally release our debut EP, including our previous two singles (Ghost & Void) and four new tracks! The six songs have gone through many iterations over the last few years, and the journey has produced an EP we are very proud of. The tracks on this EP feature many layers of vocals, guitars, and bass creating lush soundscapes with driving drum beats underneath them. We're already hard at work on our next release, but we definitely look forward to performing these songs live whenever it is safe to do so!
