Seer 03:33
Seer I’m staring at the blazing fire of all the bridges I’ve burned While the air fills with its remains, I learn Covered in soot I draw marks on the floor In the ashes I spread out and wait for the wind to tell I foresee what’s coming, the writing’s on the wall Smoke fills my lungs, obscures my vision I pull out the cinders and trace the lines with my fingers to calculate I sleep beside the embers so it spreads into my dreams Rekindling flames that should rest I foresee what’s coming, the writing’s on the wall Smoke fills my lungs, obscures my vision I stumble walking backwards

Travel Light 03:33
Travel light Sailing in the cold, heading to the north Sea mist soothes my soul of stories yet untold You travel light, you travel light Ancient, mystic fortresses that time shall erode That no longer stand, no longer stand I will make my last stand In a rusty old vessel, all alone on the high seas Vile creatures keep calling from the deep You travel light, you travel light Ancient, mystic fortresses that time shall erode That no longer stand, no longer stand I will make my last stand In this forsaken harbor I’ll break apart your last keepsakes No matter, no matter what

Ergosphere 02:58
Ergosphere In the aftermath of my wrongdoings I’m going far, far away To my event horizon An impossibility In a downward spiral I was dragged into black To an unknown place without light Escaping is but a delusion In this abyss where fighting is hopeless it’s impossible to standstill Nobody is waiting for me here, eons of gloom and doom I ought to swim against the odds, towards cosmic unfathomable shores Yet I long for my demise.

Skyscrapers 04:58
Skyscrapers Every morning I wake up dreaming still, feeling incomplete I never imagined how hard this would be We never wanted it to be like this, to be like this We never wanted it to be like this I came looking for you in skyscrapers but you were not there I am the one who is always late I will never forgive myself Oh how hard I wanted this I wonder if you still feel Will you ever be whole again? I knew one morning I would wake up here In this old house with broken stairs, stained with time You have been haunting my dreams Now I don’t dare to dream again, to dream again, to dream again I will never be whole again To dream again, to dream again, to dream again I will never be whole again I will never be whole again
