Tirra Lirra 03:28
Her fingers at a lively speed Weave so firm and zealously Intent to interlace and mend Remnants of her broken strings She knows not what the curse She knows not what the curse She knows not what the curse May bring May bring Enchanted are the eyes that see Affixed to the reflection placed before her Sterile are the hands that spin Forging of a world so distant from her She knows not what the curse may bring (x4) May bring (x3) Seemingly auspicious sight Lady turns to see the knight Awakened force of the unknown Waiting for her down below She knows not what the curse may bring (x4) May bring (x3) Deception breathes a sigh (x8) Tempestuous sky Descent to the river Tempestuous sky Descent to the river

Amanece otro día No quiero fingir más Demasiado cansada Para intentar Máscaras que se desechan Con cada mentirá hablada Juramentos vacíos se los lleva el viento Todo quedó Grabado en el tiempo Estoy en la orilla de esta pesadilla Estoy en la orilla de mi propia ruina (x2) No vuelvas más Vete de aquí (x3) No vuelvas más Yo te echo al viento Ya no vuelvas más Con cada hoja que cae Con cada minuto qué pasa Me olvido un poco más de ti Todo se lo lleva el viento Todo se lo lleva el viento Sé que te arrepentirás Pero ya será muy tarde Me perdiste (x3)

Respiro 05:57
Nell'oscurità Nell'ombra dell'oscurità Gli astri azzurri tremano nella distanza Nella distanza Dolce vento la porta lontano Ritorna in... Ritorna in vano Vivo la tua assenza Vivo la tua assenza La mia anima ti cerca sta notte Fugge da me Cercando te Fugge da me Cercando te Destinati ad essere impossibili Destinati ad essere intangibili (x2) Eternamente colpiti (x4) Cercando (x3) Salvezza (x4)

Excessive ties weighing down my autonomy Failed attempt to repress my own psyche Obsessive tendencies stifle, confine Recklessly chastise me Diminish, defy Breaking through my body like vigorous vines Inner voice resounding Transcending time Unruly garden growing through Cracked pathways Search for something to touch Extending beyond the reservations To dirt I surrender Unruly garden growing through Cracked pathways Search for something to touch Extending beyond the reservations To dirt I surrender To dirt I surrender

about

I think it was 2013 when we began recording these songs as a follow up to our first EP. We put A LOT of time into tracking. We meticulously added layer after layer, playing a dangerous game, otherwise known as being "almost done" for like, a really long time.

At a certain point, our lives became too busy or disparate to ever really decide that this was a finished product. Not to mention, I don't think we were even officially "a band" anymore when we started recording this! I don't even know, it's been so long.

After sitting on the unmixed tracks for like another two years, we were like "fuck it, lets just put it out," and now a year or two AFTER THAT we're actually putting them out. They are still unmixed, basically raw files. I threw a mastering plugin on them, and a little bit of EQ but that's it.

Maybe one day these songs will get a proper mix and master, until then at least now we can share it with anyone who still cares what we were working on back then. Have a nice day.
