lyrics
[Then the world began to spin. Biserath hoards were swarming every corner of the forest. The Father had no choice but to leave The Mother's body behind.]
Run.
[The Father ran as fast as his feet would let him.
Tripping over vines and large insects.
Scraping his skin on bark and dirt.
Pushing through razor sharp leaves.
Biting through wet cobwebs.
He had never felt adrenline like this before.
This was new.
Thick and consuming.
It was food for his numbed existence.
He pushed on as best as he could.
The words of his wife echoing in the tunnel in mind.
But no bright light ending was in sight this time.]
This planet will not be my grave
Geminis may have taken my family's life
But it won't take mine
[The Father recalled his path and made way towards the ship.
Not only animals but sentient enemies were attempting to strike him.
There were no other options but victory, he would escape this place.
Geminis would not become the wretched tomb of his name.]
This planet will not be my grave
Their deaths will not be in vein
[And there it was.
Bruised and damaged.
Barely breathing.
I closed the hatch and began to take off.
This rock was beneath me.
No looking back.]
Run.
[The Father ran as fast as his feet would let him.
Tripping over vines and large insects.
Scraping his skin on bark and dirt.
Pushing through razor sharp leaves.
Biting through wet cobwebs.
He had never felt adrenline like this before.
This was new.
Thick and consuming.
It was food for his numbed existence.
He pushed on as best as he could.
The words of his wife echoing in the tunnel in mind.
But no bright light ending was in sight this time.]
This planet will not be my grave
Geminis may have taken my family's life
But it won't take mine
[The Father recalled his path and made way towards the ship.
Not only animals but sentient enemies were attempting to strike him.
There were no other options but victory, he would escape this place.
Geminis would not become the wretched tomb of his name.]
This planet will not be my grave
Their deaths will not be in vein
[And there it was.
Bruised and damaged.
Barely breathing.
I closed the hatch and began to take off.
This rock was beneath me.
No looking back.]

High Expectations/Low Results
by FauntsChanged the way I think about music. Ranges from epic, introspective sound art to chill bedroom pop, but still feels concise and complete.
go to album -
A cosmic balance between Post-Rock and Shoegaze. Rocks hard without losing its emotional, spacey core.
