innocence in the wall eyes spins all these images of everything i thought i wasn’t is this it? is this all there is? can’t remember how i got here or the reason for it am i waking to see your hand hand outstretched from the upturned land? am i waking to see your hand in mine? i'm just waiting to see the world see it start to rename itself i'm just hoping ill remember myself reach out of the past into the present in the wall eyes into the wall eyes i watch every time that i close my eyes i am faced with nothing i don't have a memory of it i'm alive but i cannot find cannot find the person that i was before you found me it’s okay to forget your name letting go of that person’s pain it’s okay to forget it all in time it will come back a different way find you when you are not awake all this suffering glows in waves of light reach out of the past into the present in the walls past into the present the wall eyes

i need a place a place to return to the sky turns blue for me and you and all this water overflowing it washes through from me to you i don’t have any more reasons than you do to see the truth obscured my view i open my eyes and see nothing the sky was blue now it turns, too there is no place for me to return to i wanted you to be there too i see the fruit of knowledge growing so take the fruit and eat it too no longer waiting for everything you knew to come back to that place you knew and every memory’s receding the ocean blue the sky tricks you we all know it’s a lie but still we live and we then we then we die a place we return to

save you i don’t wanna go i just wanna stay shades of what we think we know what we wanna say you are always running towards something i can’t see i'll find the arrow pointing North the place you wanna be i know the secret room is waiting it’s waiting for us all follow follow me inside i'll show you the way we’ll go to where the wall eyes wait the water and the waves it’s not it’s not so hard to see reflections on the sea they show whatever we might find it’s meant for you and me i know the secret room is waiting it’s waiting for us all let go together we will fall

GOING BEYOND 03:36
dreaming of of a memory i'm not sure that it’s real but but it does follow towards me watch the shore spin the wheel around it’s not yours anymore waterfall calling me beyond vertigo my head spins like the wheel from from before what’s the difference? i can’t say nothing makes sense feel the wind blow in circles so the castle in the sky is calling my name i hear it it sounds like the voice in the waves it is yours like before waterfall calling me beyond now i know
6.
holding onto the pieces i'm becoming the pieces like a puzzle i cannot solve as the water increases in the tides there’s a secret and it tells me i've been dissolved i'm the secret i'm the secret in another life i'm absolved i'm the secret lost in regrets i can’t even find can’t recall tell me where you wanna go and i will be there waiting so tell me who you wanna be and i will be sure to be everything you want and more cause nothing’s ever what it seems what’s the difference between mystery and a curse? what’s the difference? all this violence from a history we reverse but the closer that we get to solve the mystery we become it

WHO AM I? 03:27
who am i? i want to find out (from a memory our dreams are born) all we are all we want to be is hidden from ourselves who am i? i want to find out who am i? i need to let it leave this world don’t want to find out anymore all we are all we want to be is hidden from ourselves
9.
CALAMITY 03:55
calamity will follow in your footsteps haunting haunting you up to the edge of seeing everything you want to it’s no use the flow of time comes rushing in through all these mirrors reflection don’t turn away i wanna try to see your face first rejection oh, the wonder of you illusions of the past spinning around my head all of these doors are locked i test them one by one until i find the one the one that brings me to the present me with you why do we always have to try and save each other from ourselves? embracing this calamity will bring us closer to ourselves the only way we can defeat it …is to see it break the shell when everything is said and done we’ll be remembered by who else?
10.
how does it feel feel to to be real? how does it feel feel to to be real? how does it feel feel to be alone? lost in the morning light waiting on the shore how does it feel feel to be a memory? dreaming of a place you can’t recall how does it feel? i want to go there with you in the place where you found me

about

Θέλω τὸ διάστημα τῶν ἡμερῶν
Ἐκεῖ τὰ χέρια μου νὰ πλύνω
Μέσα στὶς γυμνὲς ὥρες μιὰ ὑγρασία
Νὰ πῶ πὼς τρέχω κ’ ἐγὼ μαζί τους
Ἐγὼ κι ὁ κόσμος

//

I want the stretch of days
To cleanse my hands there
Through the bare hours a moisture
To claim that I too flow with them
The world and I

- George Sarantari
