Reach beyond imagination
Seeking the unknown
Through the void, acceleration
Mankind's altered evolution
Righteous minds' journey onwards
Lasting sacrifice
Final chance to say goodbye
My destiny awaits
Reach for new horizons
Seek the greater question
Go beyond the edge of life
And reach the light
Set the cornerstone, abandon all you know
Find a way
Find a way through growing void
Navigate
Navigate among the stars
A Journey to the edge of life, a purpose to prioritise
The stakes have never been so high, the time is up now do or die
Engineer of space and time, the chosen ones leaping for all of mankind
Vanish in the darkest night , the only chance of bringing light
Forward, gaze upon forever
Restore, hope reborn
Decide, promising endeavour
Abide, Set the course
Strive
Reach for new horizons
Change what we rely on
Where the known and new collide
We make a stride
Break the old agenda
Set the new contender
Past Orion, over Mars
Among the stars
Set the stage, rewrite fate
To stand a final time
To fall and fail or be the new Messiah
Pave the way, far away
Lost in a blinding light
I give myself to fate and close my eyes tonight
I am leaving all I know (Renounce a fallen home)
I give my life (to find a novel light)
Frontier of one (the vision carried on)
Reach for new horizons
Change what we rely on
Where the known and new collide
We make a stride
Break the old agenda
Set the new contender
Past Orion, over Mars
Among the stars

We reached for the solution, left everything behind
Broken and defeated, now we must realign
Gaze upon infinity, a sense of lasting calm
Endless waves of history, a new world has opened up
Beyond the new horizon, where sea and sky collide
Lies undiscovered mysteries, to what we all abide
Secrets and wonder, laid in the calm
A breath filled with reason, set to find the cornerstone
Find what we are
Serenity is shaken
Clouds are drawing in
To find the silver lining
Commit and persevere
Abandon inhibition
Intention realized
None without the other
Our fates are intertwined
Secrets and wonder, laid in the calm
A breath short and trembling knowing we are moving on
To save what we are

Stroll
Toe the line
Trust your mind
Deeper down
Come
Time is nigh
Increasing feeling of doubt
Do or die
Die!
In the darkness, desire, beckons further down
Compulsion, can't control it
Sudden pitch black night, sowing doubt inside
Sense of dread, can't contain this tearing hole of anxiety
Answers hiding in the shadows, underwater exploration
Hold on to the sacred promise, complications
Understanding human nature, visualising desperation
Struggle through contrasting medium, evolution's alteration
Hold my breath, perhaps forever
Darkness all I see
Through the night and past the nether
Distorted minds all left to be
Silence brings clarity,
Pure light piercing through
Blinding epiphany
Embracing the void inside of me
Far and wide I
Cross the line, other
Side I wander
Realigned, I am
Swept by forces greater
By the hidden nature
Past the narrow silver line
A blackened sky
Fading, disappearing
In this crater we're in
In the dark I realise
My demise
Realise, my demise
From the depths
Captive voices
Reverberate
In this endless void
Crush the marrow
Bursting veins
Mounting pressure
Alleviates the pain
Calm, hear the sirens sing
A soothing voice within
The train of thought is soaring further on
Liberated mind, transcendent over time
He has made his final journey home
Swept by forces greater
By the hidden nature
Past the narrow silver line
A blackened sky
Falling, coming closer(Falling further, sinking deeper)
Cut the path laid open(Breathing faster, coming closer)
I approach the speed of light(Growing darkness, fading progress, seeming hopeless)
To save a life(Find a new way)
To the sky, through the night

Surface Tension
07:14

|
Like heckling crows they say that I am to blame (Accusation)
Faceless voices in the night can only seek to defame
Guilty without a conviction (Defamation)
Forced to comply, to be framed in slanderous words
Un—controllable anger, slipping further within (Confrontation)
My mind decays, let the madness begin
Our only way out, this new existence (Separation)
An idol of hate and aggression, the spawn of possession
Mind
Lost in my mind
Confined
Within my myself
I am lost
Nowhere to go
Save me
Do I let go, fade away?
On the edge of sanity I embrace the seduction (Altercation)
Fear and loathing combined the source of my crime
In search of a new horizon (Desolation)
Overflowing darkness, a true revelation
Mind
Lost in my mind
Confined
Within my myself
I am lost
Nowhere to go
Save me
Bracing myself for my last breath
I’m holding out
Desire, stronger than before
I'm looking in, finding troubles within
I’ll Stand my ground
At dawn another day is born
But in the night
Swallowed by darkness
Persist the trouble and strife
Is there a reason?
Ponder to live and let die
Destined, carved in the stone
The sands of time running out
The midnight bell tolls
Well past the point to return
Face the crossroads
To justify what I’ve done
Live with my actions
Reject the easy way out
Trust or abandon
Voices surrounding
Words that are binding
Sanity's shifted
Notion conflicted
Altered perception
Hidden repression
Rationale fading
Voices persuading
Madness increasing
Thoughts are deceiving
Panic inside me
Self-justifying
All hope forsaken
Last light mistaken
Pray for forgiveness
God as my witness
All that I have done, who I’ve become
Forgotten soul, left to be
Far below the ground, become unbound
I will free you of me

Reflections

Gone, fear of letting out (Letting go)
A final song to last forever
Visualize, recognize
Alleviate the pain we fathered
Breathe again, ignore and pretend
As reality moves in circles
Comprehend, restore, amend
Please tell me how can I forgive myself
Fade away from me
A part of me is lost
The chains of time has come undone
Try to breathe again
Alone but moving forth
I'll cross that line another time
Break through the walls you've built to shield yourself from pain
Struggle on
Must return, retrieve the ice
Shield your mind against the lies
In this claustric void, force within(Play the odds)
In the darkest time, strengthening (To save our lives)
It is now the time, pay your sin(Staring death)
It is over now, just give in(Into its eyes)
I will renew
Animate, redo
I'll cradle you
Nurture you, feed you
I am the truth
Over time, absolute
I am the new
Guiding you, leading you

Currents: Severance
09:18
|

|
Stand by the mighty, kneel by the power
Pledge your soul eternally, look to the sky
Embrace what is left of me
Drown in a memory
Severance, my destiny
Built by my own hand
Finding yourself, fading within
Losing yourself, breaking begins
Deep in the sea, lost underneath
Can't seem to breathe, darkness to see
Leaving behind, looking to find
Race against time, hope in decline
Caught in the chain, cower in pain
Suffer in vain, claiming my name
Rage against the untold, paving the way
Paralysing, behold, tendrils wander
Glowing light, a beacon, lead me astray
Castaways and all gone, face the rapture
Darkest night, roaring skies
Agonise, misery
Siren, calling me
Luring me
Save me
Gone
Like lines drawn in the sand
(Like candles in the wind)
Though a mountain stands at hand
We cannot give in
In the dire hour, past (emotional collapse)
Standing at the crossroads of our destiny
False hope has lead me to believe I have a choice
When I'm just a victim without a voice
Pressure drives me deeper as the pain
Strikes my mind time and time again
So here I stand before you, suffering my descent (Endless suffering)
The screaming of the fallen, demanding I repent (Screaming agony)
So here we stay in death I see (Death and decay)
I know the one, it has to be me
(Voices are calling me)
Can you hear me scream?
A voiceless cry for help
(Twisting what's there to see)
Form another I, reinvent the self
(Pondering callously)
Cloaked inside my mind, beyond the broken
(Empathy leaving me)
But how? Yeah how should I defy my mind from fading?
(Bells of the dastardly)
Can I say why I'll try to save myself again?
(Toll inadvertently)
Gone
Like lines drawn in the sand
(Like candles in the wind)
Though a mountain stands at hand
We cannot give in
In the dire hour, past (emotional collapse)
Standing at the crossroads of our destiny

Shifting reality
Losing sanity
Darkness is claiming me, taking me
Suddenly, blatantly gone (disappear)
Trapped in the shadow of my (my device)
Lost in anxiety
Aching viciously
Acclaimed by society, the hope of a new day
Suddenly, blatantly back (reappear)
Breaking my limit to stay here now
Past the horizon I'll wait for you
Gone are illusions of pain
(We'll be waiting patiently for..)
In the oasis of dreams, we will be
Safe in the womb forever
(Comfort in the silent water)
Fade from reality
Soaring peacefully
Laid in tranquillity
Silence claiming me
Holding on, eternity waiting (beyond all fear and doubt)
Change the fate guiding me blindly
(I am Safe at last)
(Leave the past)
(Far away)
(Beyond the fray)
(Im done)

The Ending Expanse
07:31
|

|
Persevered
Reappeared
Mesmerized, traumatized
Memories, underneath
A promise cast aside, panic takes the wheel
Their action based upon how they feel
Our only chance at life, just beyond my grasp
The odds of pulling through, fading fast
Striving for a chance at life
Fighting for a miracle
Say, I will remember why
Remember why you gave your lives
Trust that the time will come
Victimized
Paralyzed
All I see
Left to be
Tell a last goodbye, abandon all you know
To greet the afterlife, journey on
Within the last embrace, a calming state of mind
Responsibility remains behind
Striving for a chance at life
Fighting for a miracle
Say, I will remember why
Remember why you gave your lives
Trust that the time will come
The stars are fading faster
Last beacon in the dark
Deceiving light catch darkness
Fear of being all alone
A helpless cry within me
No final dream of hope
Accept my fate, move on
My fate determined
To leave this world behind
The new beginning
Extend eternity for all mankind
The endless darkness
Afraid, can't look away
The final chapter
My final song to sing
Chastened state of mind, paralysed
The battle never ends
Lasting hope of life
Carry on, and on
Growing seeds of doubt, though I know
I know that I am free
Save myself again, one last time
I will keep on
Striving for a chance at life
Fighting for a miracle
Say I will remember why
Remember why you gave your lives
Steel my will for a final time
Hope is growing fainter
Save my breath for a future night
Laying down to pause my life
Trust that the time will come

Dreams of the Known
08:47
|

|
Far away, beyond what's known to man
Overcome all doubts of moving forth
Realised, redefined our purpose
We found a new way of believing again
Through space and time
A light was found
We were bound
Leaving, past the known in a haze
In a mystery
Soaring, flying far on my own
I am moving on
Holding on, when the fear took over
Staying true, finalized our vision
Be the one, carry our way forward
Through pain and sorrow, fight till the end
Through space and time
A light was found
We were bound
Leaving, past the known in a haze
In a mystery
Soaring, flying far on my own
On and on
Finding, peace and calm in the wake, in the aftermath
Dreaming, time will come for my call, when I wake again
Vanish in the dark
Time is keeping us apart
Give me strength to see
(Peace and calm in the wake)
Guide me through this sleep
(Lonesome lasting wait)
Find my way back home
(Redefined our fate)
Through the world unknown
(Rehabilitate)
(I'm laying down to sleep)
Secrets and wonder
Dreams of the known
The peace we discovered is the key to moving on
Leaving, past the known in a haze
In a mystery
Soaring, flying far on my own
On and on
Finding
Dreaming
Saving
Waiting

A beautiful piece of work, can't stop spinning it. Explores multiple genres, multiple emotions, and tells a fantastic story from beginning to end. Arecibo (once you click with the story) brings a tear to the eye. One of my favorite albums I've discovered this year
