Nocturnal House Vocals reminiscent of Jon Anderson. Catchy, satisfying & chill. This EP is the best kind of nostalgic journey. Favorite track: Marble Statues.

lyrics: Muses muse me Losing to my Human nature Swallowed by Physiological Forces forcing me to Feel it again (But) You could never live without the one that you love I could never be without the things that I trust Looking for an answer from someone up above but never gonna find one and enough is enough Enough is enough yeah Love what you trust Just enough to make it through the cosmic dust Looking for an answer from someone up above but never gonna find one and enough is enough Let’s walk unshod Through each other’s gray matter Patterns scattered here disappear Changeless power that’s ever changing You could never live without the one that you love I could never be without the things that I trust Looking for an answer from someone up above but never gonna find one and enough is enough Enough is enough yeah Love what you trust Just enough to make it through the cosmic dust Looking for an answer from someone up above but never gonna find one and enough is enough You cling to your Past lives like you can’t see me Speak up, speak your mind On affairs of the Heart but what do you know, girl? You’re just as lost as I ever was! You could never live without the one that you love I could never be without the things that I trust Looking for an answer from someone up above but never gonna find one and enough is enough Enough is enough yeah Love what you trust Just enough to make it through the cosmic dust Looking for an answer from someone up above but never gonna find one and enough is enough

lyrics: We could drift away on the echoes of the moonlight That Slips in through the window and spills across your face Move into the light and I see you for the first time as You were meant to be, as you were meant to be seen And I wanna make you understand And I wanna make you understand We could drift away on the endless whispers we share so Softly in the dark, peeling back the layers I can feel the heat of your body pressed against mine, and I Don't want you to go, I wanna stay here till the end of time And I wanna make you understand And I wanna hold you in my arms, I wanna hold you through the night, my dear And I wanna make you understand And I wanna make you understand what I would do for you We could drift away on the echoes of the moonlight That Slips in through the window and spills across your face I can feel the heat of your body pressed against mine, and I Don't want you to go, I wanna stay here till the end of time (Come hold me) And I wanna make you (Softly speak) Understand (I feel your body) And I wanna hold you in my arms, I wanna hold you through the night, my dear (Come hold me) And I wanna make you (Softly speak) Understand (I feel your body) And I wanna hold you through the night, safely inside the bubble, my dear

Crossfade 04:14
lyrics: You called But when I came You were no where in sight You called I came You were no where to be found You dragged me down into the depths of the hell you created for us Hope of escape comes in the shape of a Cross, one that we both must bear What lies ahead, will there be life after this, Or will I fade away? You called I came to you With my heart in my hands You called I wept Not knowing where you had gone You dragged me down into the depths of the hell you created for us Hope of escape comes in the shape of a Cross, the letter lays it bare What lies ahead, can there be life after death, Or should I fade away? You dragged me down into the hell you created What lies ahead can there be life after this or will I fade away You called And I came But you were no where to be found You called And I came But you were just beyond my grasp You called I came to you Holding my heart in my hands You called And I wept As I watched you fade away

Up There 04:08
lyrics: I have heard The stories told I've read that book of faith Read every single page And I made a choice To give it all to you, oh lord But you don't seem to care You don't even seem to hear my prayer So now I'm coming up there Say your prayers I'm comin up there 2x I'm comin up there 2x I'm comin up there 2x Before time you decided to leave us alone But I won't let you go so easily I'm comin up there, coming up there, I'm comin up there I'm comin up there Comin up comin up comin up comin up comin Show yourself Don't run and hide I know you're terrified But I won't be satisfied Till we've had a fight I came up here for you, oh lord And you won't get away You won't get away so easily Won't get away from me

The Tempest 03:39
lyrics: You won’t get away from me Now that I’ve come for you There is nowhere you can run, you have nowhere left to hide Now that I’m here for you Break your clouds up for a start, tear your streets of gold apart You had me fooled to think that faith was a virtue I know just where you’ll be I’m gonna take you by surprise, oh lord You won’t be seeing me but I will find you there I’m sure You won’t know There is no hope of escape Now that I’m after you Belief in what you cannot see, is only absurdity You have everyone fooled Into submission to you I will show them all the truth I dart behind A pillar as you pass by It’s time to make my move And take you by surprise Our fists fly furious The struggle thunderous You kick and scratch and bite but It’s me who lands the final blow Casting you down

lyrics: In an infinite world we are but marble statues Living inside the stone Carve away the lives you might have lived but never, came to pass on their own Vibrating out from the source Limitless possibilities explored A solid mass of energy and matter now I understand why things are so scattered Why there's no pattern I saw small ripples that turned into waves Crashing into one another until it all came to a stop Vibrating out from the core Limitless possible outcomes ignored A solid mass of energy and matter now I understand why things are so scattered Why everything shatters All the way down turtles in the void Chains of space and time Time is locked and time is loose Time is Bounded by light Light binds the timelines Limitless, limitless possible Limitless possibilities re- Moved from the stone In an infinite world we are but marble statues Living inside the stone Carve away the lives you might have lived but never, came to pass on their own Vibrations caused by the fourth Limitless possible lifetimes no more A solid mass of energy and matter now I understand why things are so scattered Tattered and battered
