    Hey there,

    Thanks for listening Colina! Considering I spent several years working on this album until I felt 100% satisfied, it's good to see you visiting my Bandcamp page at last. Most album revenue will be re-invested in a potential vinyl release (the album art deserves to be printed, IMHO). Thanks for your support, I hope all dedication translates to something you enjoy whenever you listen the record.

    Leo.

Wood 05:34
Hello, I’m glad you came back from the gardens on the outside Even though I just watch your shape from the inside On the garment, a shadow awaits In a balcony miles away, with that bottle of wine As it could simply speed up time To go, to leave, to find no reason to forgive Cause words were cast but couldn’t last, my friend Cause I can see the shade but I’m afraid it’s far away I know you cannot hear, but feel me, I’m just right here In thoughts I’m rain, I flood the memories, rear the blame Cause we became the dust of things we knew could change It seems the will to aid can’t bring a way to heal this place The rotten wood, the cold light burnt into the loss The quiet burn, the sharpened edge of everything we cared The lonely tear, a silent shout for all the things we said The falling leaf, a dancing hearse around the wish we bled

Violent 03:23
While overlapping scenes from separate lives While understanding the pace on the movement of the eye You feel the poisoned blood corrupting all creation All reason left aside for the mind manipulation Eyelids closed, an ego exposed, both fight for liberation Locked down dreams resembling acts of pure abomination You feel how acids bath your brain and change its flesh to rubber All reason left aside, unravel and remove the cover I’ve come across a violent weather, keeps holding us While building blocks of memories on alleged interactions While you seek to understand foundation on reactions You feel as moisture quickly stains the art of hiding feelings All reason left aside, for the current state feels just appealing From the twisted tether we’ve come across To the violent weather, keep on holding us Onto tangled pillars of arguments 'Til the leak taints overthrown monuments From a forced down schema to build upon To the loosen mind weapon we have become From the hills of reason where we fed on And to the violent keepers who shut the sun I’ve come across a violent weather, keeps holding us

Miro 03:50
Siento el frío apunto de brotar en la inmensidad Vasto mar de soledad, se acerca sin pensar Miro objetos al margen de un altar, burlan realidad Simples versos, arropan miedos al saltar

Venus 07:47
Climb to the top The lights start to show The night breathes above A deep force controls Our thoughts as we get close Our bodies lifting up The wind, it moves the air It dances with your hair It gently keeps me there So please, lock me there to that place where I can care Cover me with that hair On these nights, everywhere Breathe me again Make me wanna stay The painted cries you bleed From old and lonely nights Where you just could not sleep and I just could not feel So please, lock me there to that place where I can care Cover me with that hair On these nights, everywhere So please, lock me there to that place where I can care Cover me with that hair On these nights, in this place, in the cold and everywhere

Talk 05:07
I would like to start it anew Remove the sheets over you Let the stiffness of my mind walk me through to talk to you Hey, I will be hiding a part An abnormal reaction But it seems to be the only way of taking back control Should I rethink this? Should I rethink this? Should I? You, you stroke me in like a wave It's like you're drowning me senseless You disconnect me from the core Should I rethink this? Should I rethink this? Should I? Am I alright? Am I ok? Save me from today Before I quit Before I decompose Before I'm back to sleep I would like to talk You, I know you're different too I know what you've been through I know maybe we are scared in some ways that we differ Hey, I'm sorry for the silence But you gotta understand Before you crash another wave, I tell you, I will start anew

Optics 05:10
Underneath Through the breach, your eyes I can see What you used to be Don't you try to fool me Don't you dare to lie I'm the one who feels I'm the one who tries Different to that smile I’m the one who dies Fly far away now, leave me here I need to grow I need to look Underneath Any script, tonight I can only wish You could disappear Don't you try to fool me Don't you dare to lie I'm the one who feels I'm the one who tries Different to that smile I’m the one who dies Fly, far away now, leave me here I need to grow I need to look from above, from beneath, even from where it’s deep A way to try to find A way to find me again A way to try to learn A way to seal the remains

Coda 04:39
She was given something beautiful With time ahead, the gleam around her neck He lives in pictures he just can't ignore With constant thoughts around the steps, he walks She was left protection from herself With glimmering thoughts; some words to hold, to trust A sense of pictures he will not ignore A constant fight adopted the way he thought I would never leave the hope Soon the lonesome coda came Sunset cites an empty breath Wing the way to take a pledge As they hold the seal until the end Preserve the lifeless On the endless Empty breath It’s closer Sustain the absent Fear incoming Sealed until the end it’s ending Sustain the lifeless Fear is endless Empty breath It’s ending Preserve the absent On the endless Sealed until the end You’re closer I would never leave the hope
