about

Pain is inevitable.
It only becomes bearable once it is truly felt.
With acceptance comes liberation. And ultimate freedom requires the ultimate sacrifice.
To live is to die.
To die is to let go of control.
To let go of control is to fully live.

lyrics

The light is gone
I wander through the darkest night
(aimlessly)
Where should I go?
How can I save a world
When I can't even save my love?

I don't know how
To clear the clutter in my thoughts
(everything so loud)
Deafening silence surrounds
And through it all
A voice cutting holes in my head:
“It wasn't enough!”

The light is gone
My restlessness is killing me
Confusion reigns
I'm craving for a place to be
Cry of despair
Lost in the air
No one's listening
Havoc in mind
Need to rewind
Into the night

I just can't be your hero
For as long as I just can't believe you
That you dare to expand beyond reality
And mutualize our destiny

Urgency is growing stronger
I can't continue any longer
The rite of passage has begun
Seed is placed and deed is done
Now I need to move on
Please, release me

Gaia calls me to her womb
So I step into my tomb
To let go of what
I never meant to retain

We can make this world anew
We're in charge of what to do
And we know it's right
As we fly into the light

My soul stays with you
We are one
Our connection conquers space and time
I honor you
We are one
Deep within we share a mutual core
Don't worry now
We are one
Not apart, not quite together
I have faith in you
We are one
You will see that you are not alone

I just can't be your hero
For as long as I just can't believe you
That you dare to expand beyond reality
And mutualize our destiny

We can be free!
