blacksmithgalaxy777 Wonderful surprise with this album. Don't know how I came here but I'm glad I did. Collection of very different song and a very strong debut EP. FFO of steven wilson and modern and trippy prog.

Ending solo is awesome! Favorite track: SPHINX, Pt. II.

Gaze Into the maze And you’re paralyzed On and on you babble About your shiny shoes Ladder on the wall Creature thinks it’s on the prowl All windows faced inner hall In her eyes you can see Definite signs of a written tragedy Trust me when I say High entry price you'll pay Put her anger in an unbreakable box Drawn into a race she’ll never win Lap after lap In an endless vicious circle Should she climb Or should she fly? Running circles in her head Infinite circles in her head Confusion certainly never ends It certainly never ends You can have my heart shaped tie You can have my insanity I’m on to some other insane quest No more molded life for me little rodent don't rush or drag Don't bite that tail, don't make him mad Breath a little bit longer So the little lover Can get a bit stronger Every other moon it gets harder Every sip of a beer gets more sour Don’t let that dogie jump so high Throw him a bone and let him die alone Trust me when I spit this out Hare today, gone tomorrow Enjoy the race a while, And We'll be gone after 5 miles Even little Rats Casts large shadows Even little Rats Casts large shadows at Trust me when I spit this out, Safe to say Hare today, gone tomorrow Enjoy the race a while, And We'll be gone after 5 miles Of all the lies that I told myself Hare today, gone tomorrow Escape the race for a while, And you'll be shot after 5 miles In your eyes I can see Signs of a tragedy Beyond repair Little broken hare Chase the exit, like a mad man Piss on the wall, kill the sideman Dead rabbit in the moon Paper pushing, carrot sucking! That's the huge elephant in the room In my eyes You’ll never see Shadows Little rabbit never had a chance Never really enjoyed any romance Brick by brick built her goddamn maze In the end lil' rabbit got a new craze God had a fractal plan for her Many steps, still a stretching corridor In this life you only get one shot A shot in the head is all you'll get For lil' rabbit it was just too late She just couldn't even catch a break All her carpet is stained in bloody blue There's the famous elephant in the room

Palm of your hand Draws line through starry nights  Path to traverse To distant dying star Known you before From different times How far we've come Light years away Our fate reunited once more Our paths are forever combined Dying star Crossing though our nights All these nights and all these  Lifes, the memories we went  Through to find and carry  On to stars beyond You pulled me through All of eternity                    All these nights and all these  Lifes, the memories we went  Through to find and carry  On to stars beyond You pulled me through All of eternity  No matter  Distance through this The gods of life and death they They battle on and on  Since the start of time Travel beyond that nebula Way beyond that merging stars There's no cure for this disease For our sure eternal sleep They say death is the road to awe Come with me and we'll lie again In forever ecstasy All these nights and all these  Lifes, the memories we went  Through to find and carry  On to stars beyond You pulled me through All of eternity  All these nights and all these  Lifes, the memories we went  Through to find and carry  On to stars beyond You pulled me through All of eternity

Iceland 04:56
Walk me with me my dear Bought a wrong ticket to far away Best mistake from many I've made Father hugged me and said, said goodbye Go and make memories, leave your anger behind To get lost is to find yourself sometimes Please don't freeze, you still need to pay me back this time Iceland Iceland Come with me, my dear Under the bright magical nightlights  Beautiful bright blue sky Indigo eyes Cool wind, lost again Believe me when I say Beautiful ladies, giant lads No greater land, you'll want to stay Steaming earthly spray will melt your face Exploding volcanoes and exploding hearts    Scared for life, the best part Burning passion, burning   heart for you Come with me Under the bright magical night light  Beautiful bright blue sky Indigo Eyes I’ve never thought our path would cross In this life Forgot the anger, put light in my faith, again Iceland Iceland Now we've seen what mother earth can bring to you and me Nature's grace and love, and sudden clarity  Our paths crossed forever Through her indigo eyes I’ve gone to Land of ice to lose myself As a way to find  who I was all along  Hold my hand and get a little closer

Wandering through a desert Traveling aimlessly Blistering sun, dancing sand Lost between mirages and reveries Courage to Begin Strength to Believe Hope to carry forward Fear and dread consume us Hold tightly to our life Not even a choice, no chance of escape From the desert haze Crazy Vagrant who dares to ramble about On these lands Forbidden to pests like you You must be stuck, ran out of luck Deciphering what I have for you Is the only way through Squeeze you tight Bind your mind With my wits and power, poisonous words Paralyzing riddle, bewitch your mind Like violent acid, meltin' your face Those muted by my questions I will devour limb by limb Now riddle me this Decipher it quick Or you'll be her bitch Beast will grip you till your brain pops out Son of enigma Sun of the desert Trial you will have to pass And put your little mind to the test A distant memory of legend of these lands Never thought it was true You never think these will ever happen to you Wandering for ages in these wastelands Need to find a way to carry forward Demon enjoy its psycho games Now the sphinx questions you Who you are? What are you? No turning back anymore Only way to escape Wits and words fails me Questions runs too deep Keeps you always incomplete No way out, no running away Seeking answers is the only way Never felt sun in flesh Never let acid melt Asking question we Were not supposed to Impossible answers Enigmas undeciphered Wits and words fails me Questions runs too deep Keeps you always incomplete No way out, no running away Seeking the answer is the only way Hold your breath Don't cross the line Fear from death She'll chop your mind Just hear me out, This is my stream of thought Carry on, chop me up Misses sphinx beyond Limb by Limb, see if I care, no spell could ever jinx me consequently This loony tuney, crazy wandering lost soul is me I promise I won’t stutter anymore Here take this acid, melt your brain, until you're leaking through the floor You want me to Integrate this Trip? What's the matter? Does Fear get you by your balls just a little bit? I believe I asked a question where's your answer little bitch? What? you can't integrate this trip, Little bitch Don't overthink it, let your third eye give you a lift I launched off Heroic doses of 'shrooms blacked out and Woke up in a straight jacket locked in a tomb My life was depicted on the wall in encrypted With blood stained hieroglyphics, it was clear and vivid I wonder if I got the question right or did I miss it? (B) Did I defy the law of physics or am I just trippin? Man... Mama I've hit my head Maybe I've been replaced Mama I'm not myself Maybe I'm just insane Demon head Lion threat If I can't get free so easily Then I'll get high Holy Mountain high Insane like the riddle and make no sense at all And I will put fire on this desert Answer me this: Have you ever asked yourself Na Na Na Na What lies behind backstage doors Have you ever? It makes you mad Makes you question everything What makes you mad Will kill you everyday Wits and words fails me Questions runs too deep No end, no oasis in sight No way out No runnin' away from this You could call me An escapist Maybe that's the shit I am Wait a sec, don't cut us yet Never prepared to get chopped like that Crank that Windows open for Break the glasses once again Can't make you think, I can't make you feel Have another cigar May I digress a little more? Yeah yeah, are you a thinker Or a doer? Don't think that too much Or this will kill ya too

I've never understood How this came to be Questions so complex Still I'm rambling on Never looked within Never found the whys Meditate Medicate Meditate Breathe And my Eyes never rolled within Suddenly I won't depend On logical answers On ghost and shadows Anymore I've chosen a kind word for myself For once Accepted my whole story So far, anyways Why we defer our Enigma Why we defer our true love The same riddle that made me insane Will shine a beacon in your And my Eyes That are awake Have rolled within Now I see With clarity The path I face The choice is an Illusion The path only exists when you pass If I wasn't me What would I be? A shadow, a specter A monster, a demon A jester, your killer Your savior I might be you Mind plays funny trick on you if your unsure Unties two knots, three more it creates for you To decipher the riddle Is two part quest First is to accept the enigma There simply are no start middle and end This tragic beauty, might as well set you free The second one lies in self reference Like a cel, where two from one came to be You are the path that you walk on, But the path only starts when you come through Begins when you go through Pumpkin skies brings Autumn breeze To Break our chains Freedom from the poison of the Desert Haze
