Hanging Over Me
03:02

In a world
Where nothing but peace might happen,
When not knowing who I am
Makes me the weakest
Can't help but have the feel that
Something's hanging over me
I might rest today
In this silent place
Inside I think it's worth
To take the chance
My torn soul
Is lacking of some pieces
Such a hole
I'm sometimes seeing
Familiar faces
I can't help but have the feel
That something's hanging over me
I might rest today
In this silent place
Inside I think it's worth
To take the chance
Orphan but no sorrow
I dread nothing
But to follow
This thing
Wrenching
My heart and let it go
I'll find it today
Outside this silent place
Inside I think it's worth
To take the chance
I am on my way
I am flying away
From everything I believe
I can't achieve

Hex (ft. Suzie Lou)

Diving into the unknown
Marching, following the chilly air
Thinking I've already grown
Everything is lighter to bear
But, Ah! I hear a noise
In the gloomy night
Is the legend wrong or right?
In front of her I froze
Look at you! Errant!
How dare you walk in my woods
A glimpse so unpleasant
Now remove your filthy hood!
The ominous witch appeared
She's standing tall
Here and that's what I feared
Can't do nothing but crawl
You don't scare me, witch!
And I mind not to fight!
I know you're scared of light
I won't move an inch
You fool
I might be scared of the sun
But I'm the one making the rule
For we have until dawn!
By evil's might
By all that's right
Curse the vermin and take away her sight
Force her to stare at but eternal night and face
Life without light.
The hex I've put on you will make you blind!
It will teach you respect, that's how I bind
Now you've paid your deed you might enter
In those cursed woods I control
And now, you better remember
You will never be whole
Again!

Hard pikes
Slowly
Craving in my head
Slow blades
Digging
Paths in my brain
Turn off the lights
Blinding my sight
Pain crawling
I feel like I'm falling
I fight against
Creeping parasite
Emptiness
Is what I need
To Make it stop
Turn off the lights
Blinding my sight
Pain crawling
I feel like I'm falling
Turn off the lights
Blinding my sight
Pain crawling
I feel like I'm falling

Fading Sight
04:03

I regret the things
The things I did
The things I said
I regret what made
Me take this way
And make mistakes
Makes me wonder why
I think my whole life
Was just a lie
I've never felt this way before
The dream faded
With my sight
Lost myself
Amongst all the choices
I have to make
Get rid of the ache
If only I had
Some kind of secret gift
The rain wouldn't taste
Like the bitterness I faced
I'm laying down
Reaching the depth of the river
I can't stop thinking
About the cold water
But the coolness
Of my tears can't rivalise
With her frozen heart
A heart made of grief and ice
Makes me wonder why
I think my whole life
Was just a lie
I've never felt this way before
The dream faded
With my sight

Middle of nowhere
I gotta take the road
And try to find
A way to heal
And what I sought
If I stay I'll be lost
So I have to move on
Seek a shelter
Meet a host
Yes I have to go on
I'm on my way
To find shelter
The end of day
Hides the cure
Blinded by the spell
I'm walking down the path
I'm hearing a bell
Under my feet the grass
It rings, the sound glows like a star
At the end of an eternal night
Relieves me from despair
I know I can follow the light
If I stay I'll be lost
So I have to move on
Seek a shelter
Meet a host
Yes I have to go on
I'm on my way
To find shelter
The end of day
Hides the cure
Please! Someone open!
Please! Someone help!
I'm exhausted
Totally broken

Arriving at the crossroad
Hearing a noise straight ahead
Drained, my heart might explode
Wonder where my journey led
I'm calling, I'm waving
Some witch put a spell on me
He push me, more like a shove
I should fear
Hope he would behove
To host me and hear
Help me, she made me blind
I just need a bed and some bread
Come in! Come in little dove
The door is right here,
Please be my guest!
You've been hexed, if I heard right?
Tell me what happened
I will help if I might
First, drink this cup, have this bread
Tell me why
Are you here?
Coming from a little town
Didn't know who I was
I wanted to let down
And maybe find the cause
To my distress
To my ignorance
I need to know
Why I'm alone
Yet unknown
Why I'm alone
I'm alone
So I went through the woods
That witch, uncanny
Told me I couldn't cross
Her forest without paying
Dazed, I tried to defy
Yet she put her spell on me
That's why I'm alone
Yet unknown
Why I'm alone
I'm alone
That's why I'm alone
Yet unknown
Why I'm alone
I'm alone
Listen, little dove
Shaken by your tragedy
I decided to give some love
To you and the others in need
I don't know your way
Don't know what you can do
Follow the path
Find the bay
Meet the seer
Who will help you
Help you
Help you
Who will help you

Inner night
Endless fright
I can feel her glaze
Like I perceive daylight
Sat down, shaky stool
Dripping, pouring rain
The furnace and the fuel
Heat up my pain
Shiny could be her shawl
Her jewels, the stories she's heard
Rattling on her shoulders
They crawl, under acute words
I know why you're here
Expecting the truth from me
I wonder if you can bear
What the cards will have to say
I'm just lost, I'm exhausted
I've been brought down your way
I've been wandering night and day
Wondering what they'll say
Let me first warn you
You might get disappointed
You might have to go through
A lot more than expected
I just can bear it no more
I have to figure out
The reason I've been brought
And knocked to your door
Let me first warn you
You might get disappointed
You might have to go through
A lot more than expected
So raise your left hand
Your right hand on your heart
I displayed the cards
For you, I will tell them apart
The Empress
Messenger
Bearer of the new start
She's ending the tempest
High Priestess
Knows the door
She will read to the core
Help confront your weakness
The Nameless
The Faceless
XIII might be scary
Healing the Grief that you carry
You will recover
Someone along the way
Might enlighten your day
As well as your sight
From darkness it'll turn bright
If you keep going West
You'll be blessed
Because you don't have to cry
Anymore for your mother

The Spell
03:57

Walking the path to find her
I can't help but feel
My senses expanding
Don't know yet what I can do
To prevent her from hurting
I am on my way
To find her
Erase the blur
This endless gray
I will go through
This time of doubt
The inside fire grew
Hopeless
Not helpless
I can't find my way out
Of this place
I fought
Not sure what I am scared about
The pain's still here
Here wandering
In depths of fear
Always seeking
For a chance
The pain's still here
Here wandering
In depths of fear
Always seeking
For a chance to heal
A chance to find
Who made me blind
A chance to seal
Her spell

Remedy

Last mile running
Fearless, but hurting
I'm about to find
What made me blind
I found the remedy
To end the pain
That is sneaking under my skin
The remedy
To ease what I become
The urge to face my identity
The path is fading
Thinner than a thread
The moment I've been waiting
To look inside my head
I found the remedy
To end the pain
That is sneaking under my skin
The remedy
To ease what I become
The urge to face my identity
I feel it
Might be closer
Let the ache already be over
Wait, what's happening
My dreams of peace
Are shifting
The remedy's revealing
So are my hopes
Will I be able
To ever heal
The pain is back at me
Please, someone help
To get back my sanity

Remembrance

Further to my home than ever
Facing destiny and my past
Now I know I'll recover
And that it will no longer last
This journey led me to my home
It led me to the forgotten
My childhood, my memories, rotten
I now recall my mother gone
Brought away
She was the prey
The mighty
Took her from me
Brought away
She was the prey
The mighty
Took her from me
She takes me in her arms
My heart bursting
My tears are falling
Remembrance returns
She still lives with her burden
So heavy she ran away
She left me, we both had to pay
The price of her conversion
Brought away
She was the prey
The mighty
Took her from me
Brought away
She was the prey
The mighty
Took her from me
When I was a young girl
Living far from everything (everything)
My mother and I
Alone we were living (we were living)
She used to play with fate
Knowing it was dangerous (dangerous)
Though it was arduous
Managed to help and she was
Brought away
She was the prey
The mighty
Took her from me
Brought away
She was the prey
The mighty
Took her from me
She showed me her craft
Hiding from the outer world
She made me give my word
That if I talked, we'd be apart
Didn't show, didn't speak
But once I saw a man
He did have a plan
He chased us to seek
On us
To take her
To break her
To eradicate all of us
Brought away
She was the prey
The mighty
Took her from me
They came on a starry night
Throwing everything, stumbling
Cries, tears, shouting
Erasing what they despise
They took her
(Remembrance returns)
They took her
(Remembrance returns)
They took her
(Remembrance returns)
They took her
(Remembrance returns)
They took her
(Remembrance returns)
They took her
(Remembrance returns)
They took her
(Remembrance returns)
They took her
(Remembrance returns)
Now I'm here shaking in her arms
(Remembrance returns)
My vision now recovering
(Remembrance returns)
She escaped protecting me
(Remembrance returns)
My destiny is now shaped
(Remembrance returns)
From this day
We tied our way
From this day
We tied our way
She was the key
Setting me free
From this day
We tied our way
She was the key
Setting me free

Amnesia

Laying
Unconscious in this bright place
Praying
Divine light illuminating my face
Barely moving
Barely thinking
I can only hope
For someone rescuing
Rejecting
Floating
Flying around this radiant place
I can't understand
And I refuse
The truth
I can't remember how I came here
Am I dreaming?
Can't figure out what I see or hear
Am I dying?
Will I ever be able to
Come back
Wake up
Remember
Getting out this hollow space
My mind freeing
Itself from the bond
To Earth
Escaping
My body
I feel I'm coming back to life
Awakening
Grasping
The invisible knot
Golden link is bringing me
The truth
I can't remember how I came here
Am I dreaming?
Can't figure out what I see or hear
Am I dying ?
Will I ever be able to
Come back
Wake up
Remember
Getting out this hollow space
Come back
Wake up
Remember
Getting out this hollow space
Time
Stretching
Evolution
Dimension
Memories
Recover
Leave
This nightmare
Am I dreaming?
Can't figure out what I see or hear
Am I dying ?
Will I ever be able to
Come back
Wake up
Remember
Getting out this hollow space
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
Getting lost in this nightmare
Remember
Remember
Remember
Amnesia

Prog is difficult to get right the first time around and these guys have done a very good job. They have shown they have the skills and talent to be a great band. They tick some really good prog boxes in terms of length, technical difficult within a song. This album demonstrates that they have the talent but it "Ad Astra" their follow up album that really demonstrates that they will become a great band.
