about

"Starlight Nightcrash" is the second single of our upcoming album. A song of treacherous beauty, with an ever-gaping dark abyss lurking underneath. The broken sounds of a circuit-hacked Casio keyboard flicker through the track while the big band sparkles in lush symphonic colors. A song about unfathomable luck in the face of nature's ineffible, disinterested cruelty.

lyrics

Starlight Nightcrash

Everywhere stars
water in the sky above
my eyes burn
my skin reflects the stars

If all those departed
where are they now
stories of all

Take your turn
take your turn
turning tide
brightness

Time delay
time delay
coincidence
brightness

All falls into place
all falls into place
water and sky absorb the light

When I arrive
explosions burst the silence
plastic melts
water in all dark shades

Destruction and crash
furious fire
weight of the mass

Fight to breathe
fight to breathe
fight to be loving

Infinite time
mind stands still
consciousness in transformation

Uncaged from the glue
free from the web
water and sky absorb the light

For all that I know
a new state has conquered me
my eyes burn
my skin reflects the stars

Swooshing water
sand and the island
peaceful the night

Just one tone
just one sound
just a tone in my head

Tentative sight
rushing blood
just a drone in my head

Overwhelming
deeper silence
peaceful the ocean
in ancient stability

Just a dream
just a dream
oh a confusion I bear inside of me

Just a dream
just a dream
oh a confusion I bear inside of me

Overwhelming
deeper silence
peaceful the ocean
in ancient stability
