about

Shadows is the most 'straight to the point' we've ever been, both musically and lyrically, as we explore our own battles with mental health. The original inspiration for the song was our bassist's struggle with PTSD, though during the writing process it became apparent that we all relate to the song in our own individual ways, and that the words contained cover a much broader spectrum.
It's important to us that our music is an honest representation of who we are as people - and 'Shadows' marks the first step further into the minds of our members.

2020 has been a year to remember, or forget for some, where tackling mental health is at the forefront of society, and we take pride in sharing with complete transparency our own, very personal, take on the matter.

It's important to speak your mind about your thoughts and understand yourself as best you can. If you or anyone you know is suffering from depression and/or suicidal thoughts - please reach out to someone.

lyrics

Lost in a cycle,
Born of desolation
Fear has become my only friend,
As the shadows creep up on me,
The sleeplessness ceases to end

In the gloom of the night my mind lingers in tragedy,
Tending to dwell on the past, susceptible to insanity

How did these shadows find me?
What do they want from me?
Though I doubt anything I give will satisfy their needs

I resent the light within me,
Giving in to these shadows

This degradation flows into my very being,
The thought of reparation drains me of all feeling

I think, therefore I am
But what am I supposed to be?
This life has taught my eyes to never truly see

I resent the light within me,
Giving in to these shadows
Holding in my own compassion,
For fear of being left behind

And now I'm broken, I lie in torment,
My world is dead and so am I,
Now I've spoken, so leave me dormant,
Woe is me, O' misery

Staring into this illusion,
Will I be free of my delusion?

Shadows embrace me,
The dark consumes me,
And when I finally sleep,
I will be at peace

I resent the light within me,
Giving in to these shadows
Holding in my own compassion
For fear of being left behind

Left behind
I think, therefore I am
I think, therefore I am
