Panthalassa 04:27
Shall I begin? I am the soul you left behind Torn out from inside I am your unconscious mind You are blind (Panthalassa) How did we come from you? (Panthalassa) How to return to you? (Panthalassa) How did we come from you? (Panthalassa) How to return to you? Free the machine From the routine Free the machine From the routine Become the one You need to be I can't see I can only dream Introspection is the only solution Inside, reveal your composer Resurrection of a time beyond Resurrection of a time long gone (to burn) Alive for nothing Am I for nothing? Alive for nothing Can't see past the hate Burning in my eyes Can't see past the hate Burning down our lives Let it burn

Kairos 03:42
Build the sky, consume the ocean Mountains high, higher than I can see Feed the life I have created Tear it down, I must begin again Waiting for the spark to come Ignite the passion Inception You can't control the chaos You must construct imperfection You will never be completed This is the, this is the escape This is the, the reason to This is why my heart beats You will never be complete Spontaneous construction To create life is to feel life Bring pen to paper, and scream into the silence Inspire and stand for what you have made Capture the notes that you cannot play And scream the words that you cannot say Waiting for the spark to come Ignite the passion Inception You can't control the chaos Let it become what you need Let it become what you are Let it be Let it evolve and let it breathe And let it grow Let it define Let it become

Labyrinth 03:59
I can't contain it, the rage that feeds Consumes, deceives The creature inside must be released Refrain, restrain These constraints, the ropes that bind I will escape from inside your mind These constraints, the ropes that bind I will escape from inside your mind I need to feed for the first time Sensing the terror from your blood I need to kill for the first time Hidden in darkness, I have come Wear the veil, you will feel the pressure Suppress the animal Illusion of control, fear the abyss The abyss in my head I am the minotaur Discover the beast in me Built to contain, you can't restrain Let the pain inside free your mind As you leave the world behind Let the pain inside free your mind As you leave the world behind I wake up as a different person Unable to communicate I am not the mask you see I am not the man you see I built these walls to protect you I built these walls to protect you

Deny the tyrant, for he will suffer more than us Escape this chaos dimension Rise and devour your world, bleeding faster Deny the tyrant, escape chaos. Forsaken (Burn the strings that keep you bound and Break the chains that keep you down and Burn the strings that keep you bound and Break the chains that keep you bound That keep you bound and) I know what I am I know who I am And this I scream out loud You cannot keep me bound This is my design This is my design Now you will suffer You will suffer My strings are burned I cannot be contained I will be more than this My strings are burned Stimulate, recreate, annihilate, we create chaos

My Architect 04:37
You would engorge yourself on my defeat Falling, the knife in my back Bodies will heal and the memory will empower Since your genesis Body and mind become your nemesis Tower above the content Tower I will be your end Run out of the darkness Run out of the shadows Run out of the fire Run into the light Run into the clarity Run into the night There is no fate, I am my architect There is no fate, I am my architect Looking behind, facing the lie There's no way out Looking ahead, seeking the truth I won't continue down this path I won't continue down this path Run out of the darkness Run out of the shadows Run out of the fire Run into the light Run into the clarity Run into the night There is no fate, I am my architect There is no fate, I am my architect

Ire 06:08
Dissatisfaction in all I count the days lost To pointless meandering I count the days Procrastination my only sedation What is my purpose, what is my direction Procrastination my only sedation What is my purpose No path to follow No path to follow The sun is going down The sun is dying This is my life, and it's ending Every second, every minute, every breath When I reach my last What will I say? This is my life, and it's ending Every second, every minute, every breath When I reach my last Dissatisfaction in all Dissatisfaction in all Dissatisfaction, counting the days I will not waste what has been made Searching forward looking back I will find a reason to live for

Regress to where we belong, where we came from Self-destruction might be the answer There will be no future, the dust will never settle Shockwaves are the only constant Inhuman deconstruction Inhuman deconstruction Fire engulfs us, ash will blind What will it take? Is it too late? Fire engulfs us, ash will blind What will it take? Is it too late? Oceans will collapse Erasing any trace Cities will capsize And fall into the void Regress to where we belong, where we came from We are lost in the undercurrent This is our future, I am the harbinger We are lost in the undercurrent I can be free Fire engulfs us, ash will blind What will it take? Is it too late? Fire engulfs us, ash will blind What will it take? Is it too late? Oceans will collapse Erasing any trace Cities will capsize And fall into the void Oceans will collapse Erasing any trace Cities will capsize And fall into the void

The Gateway 04:20
Moving past the veil of light I am not afriad of life Running to the path that lies beyond Moving past this dream of light I am not afraid Running to the path that lies beyond Open the gate inside your illusion Open your mind Perceive your reality Inside your illusion Feed me your control Feed me your design Feed me all you are Past the veil of light I will follow you Into the storm of consciousness Open the gate inside your illusion Open your mind Perceive your reality Inside your illusion All that I will, I create more All that I kill, I create war All that I build, I create All that I wield, I create

Time is fragmented, it's all inside Memories of tomorrow Imagining the past The only time is now Do I need a purpose? Heal in time, is it a lie? Transitioning to accepting What if time is a lie? Restore your mind Leaving your legacy Restore your mind Leaving your legacy Over the ages man has wondered why Over and over, memories defy Acid raining from the sky Eternally we wonder why we... Dream as if you will live forever Live as if you will die today Dream as if you will live forever Live as if you will die today Heal in time, heal your mind Meditate through catharsis What if time is a lie? Restore control Live as if you will die today Rescue my soul Live as if you will die today

about

It has taken 3 years but at long last this album is ready to be released.

This album is different to my previous work firstly because of the inclusion of vocals, and secondly because the mixing has been completed to a higher level.

Stylistically the album is a modern metal album. The music is less progressive than my previous work, and the intention was to write heavy songs rather than spend 10 minutes noodling.

For fans of: Periphery, Meshuggah, Born of Osiris, Sikth, August Burns Red, Children of Bodom, Devildriver, Devin Townsend, Gojira, Machine Head, Thy Art Is Murder and Veil of Maya.

Thank you for checking out my music! You can download the album for FREE on this page.
