Choose, please make your choice today, Pray for a day, when light will come, Will come your way, through the stagnant dark. Choose, please choose your life today, Is there a way, abandon this, Grey dismal day, end the putrid dark. Choose, please choose your fate today, To ship away, to disappear, Slowly decay, lose the memory. Choose, please make your choice today, It's cast aside, it's cracking through, Through the seething cold, empty grains of sand. (Make your choice, make it now) Little mistakes will be my downfall, Little fears will be my undoing, The best of intentions rot slowly away, Stand naked revealing an internal decay, The conscious side glances that eclipse my eyes, Stay staring broadcasting a time I despise, Waiting is something that age can't afford, Cracks start to appear and stick out like a broken chord. (Empty circles, grains of sand) Off-centre circles will be my downfall, No excuse will be my undoing, The best expectations swirl down the drain, Leaving a null void, a bruiseless sprain, The logging of high points cower in the low, A shed like dissection against buildings that grow, Nostalgia is something that I can't afford, Distortion appears and offends like a broken chord. (Empty circles, grains of sand) (Empty circles, grains of sand)

Walk in circles, pace this ground Crack the floor, what I've found Frightened faces, truth or lie? Spines presented, should I try? Treading softly through solid air Glimpse of guidance but nothing is there Knowing smiles, face of stone Elbowed ribs bite to the bone. Remember the days spent in astronaut suits Laying about chewing slate off thatched roofs Sucking sugar and cocoa beans And never sure of what it all means Remember the weeks blinking bloodshot eyes Clawing the walls waiting for sand to rise The hour glass cracking behind the scenes And still not certain of what it all means. Seething freezing, voices in mind Exposing metal, rust I find Whispered notions, a door ajar Grains fall down, gone too far. Moving silent, tombs and stone Discarded memories that I have known A token gesture, a trip a fall Broken feelings, nothing at all. Remember the days spent in astronaut suits Laying about chewing slate off thatched roofs Sucking sugar and cocoa beans And never sure of what it all means Remember the weeks blinking bloodshot eyes Clawing the walls waiting for sand to rise The hour glass cracking behind the scenes And still not certain of what it all means. Remember the months catching bottles of rain Cracking our backs and feeling the flames Jumping off walls, avoid the incoming tide Wondering when it would all subside Remember the years going slowly insane Clocks ticking backwards but the memory remains The empty circles where once you tried Always certain it would all subside.

about

Written between March-August 2020, these five songs take the listener on a musical journey that explores memory and the onslaught of time. In terms of calling this conceptual, it is more of a thematic concept rather than something with a clear storyline.
