Rise to Fall
Album • 2023
The wait is over, the transition comes to its end The gate is about to open, but not for long Only those who have passed the test Will be able to cross through the portal And exit the sphere The most desired gift is just a step away But only within the reach of a few A journey of no return where no baggage is needed It is forbidden to look back Somewhere between the visible universe And the labyrinth of dark matter Lies the hidden place that holds the last fading hope Another rising sun Don’t try to see it, it’s above you, on a different plane Tiny and imperceptible to the human eye A journey of no return where no baggage is needed It is forbidden to look back Somewhere between the visible universe And the labyrinth of dark matter Lies the hidden place that holds the last fading hope Another rising sun Somewhere between the visible universe It is forbidden to look back Somewhere between the visible universe And the labyrinth of dark matter Lies the hidden place that holds the last fading hope Another rising sun Somewhere between the visible universe Lies the hidden place that holds the last fading hope Lies the hidden place that holds the last fading hope Another rising sun

Cutting through the freezing air Like a peregrine falcon I plough the skies at lightning speed Proud and reckless, nothing can stop me All the skills and strengths Will they stand the test of time? All this energy suddenly disappears The growing marks of our skin Mapping all the places we’ve been Every triumph and failure Stigmatized, sculpting us for life In the end we are all living with a stranger Someone in the mirror reminds us That one day everything changes Evеrything we’ve learnt must bе transcended All that remains to be done Must be completed right here Must be completed right here Must be completed right here In the end we are all living with a stranger Someone in the mirror reminds us That one day everything changes In the end we are all living with a stranger Someone in the mirror reminds us That one day everything changes In the end we are all living with someone And one day everything changes

The teachings say everything has two sides Good or bad, true or false, black or white Are you willing to broaden your perception? Are you ready to see things as you’ve never done before? To achieve full awareness We must suspend all judgement Cultivate vacuity All things depend on each other, are contingent Can’t you see the connection in this? Break the fence that divides thе nations That divides the world Stay in between thе extremes That divide the world in two Can’t you feel the lack of empathy? All the scorn for other beliefs Are we capable of self-reflection Or are we gonna spread division Around the entire globe? All things depend on each other, are contingent Can’t you see the connection in this? Break the fence that divides the nations That divides the world Stay in between the extremes That divide the world in two The teachings say to avoid the soul We need to reach a moral perfection To build the empty ward The teachings say to avoid the soul We need to reach a moral perfection All things depend on each other, are contingent Can’t you see the connection in this? Break the fence that divides the nations That divides the world Stay in between the extremes That divide the world in two That divide the world in two That divide the world in two That divide the world in two That divide the world in two

I've seen all the possible endings and in all of them I fail All my goals are miles away, all my efforts turn to nothing Don't know where I lost the sense Can't remember the last time I breathed The only thing I know I can't take my time for granted Lets improve the old mistakes, try to learn from yesterday A brand new error is waiting For us to give it a proper name All roads may end up at the same infinite crossroad But trust me friend, you don't need to choosе right You just have to choose one My rеstless mind wanders, but my body stands still Indecision nails us to the ground, we're immobile souls We're the thought without an action And the action without purpose I open my eyes my I'm still asleep Can't guess where the next trap is No way out contains a secret path There is no perfect choice No shortcuts to success

In the land of infinite cold The heat brings down the icy walls The fortress breaks, old threats are now Making a showing through the profound cracks The vectors of deadly infections may come back Something we might not be prepared for Ancient enemies waiting silent for a second chance Emerging from a deep, freezing dream Unknowable, unpredictable In their timing and ferocity As the Earth warms, diseases grow Aren't you scared of what lies beneath? Is this our chance to cast away All this reigning blackness we live in? Now the vault that holds them back Melts in front of our eyes Whatever is frozen in there Might be released, could be unleashed The resurgence of forgotten killers Will become a bigger risk

We are slaves of a great chain Irremediably connected Those who believe themselves stronger Forget that nobody′s indispensable Each one has his task and it's enough That one fails for the whole chain to crash The rusty ones are pointed out Condemned to carry the weight of the guilt Until the end of their sad days Drowning in their own misery Is it true that time can not die? Do we all have the same ending? I won′t be at home when death knocks on the door Tired of going around in vein I've searched all the corners of my inner self Looking for answers that can explain What my role is in this game Ignoring small successes is the greatest of failures I'm breaking the limits of the unthinkable Expanding the borders of my limited growth

A subtle beam of light Slips through the cold dark With absolute stealth Gently piercing it from the inside Cause a single spark Is capable of causing a great fire In the blink of an eye Brings a brand new dawn Possibly the last great chance For a fresh start When all this ends Maybe we'll no longer be the same And all it's left Is only a mirage of what we were Little fragments melt into thin air This pure vibration Keeps on winning, it's gaining ground With so much energy It's impossible not to stand out Cause a single spark Is capable of causing a great fire In the blink of an eye Brings a brand new dawn Possibly the last great chance For a fresh start The survival of all the species' in her hands She carries the fate of an entire race on her back Cause a single spark Is capable of causing a great fire In the blink of an eye Brings a brand new dawn Possibly the last great chance For a fresh start When all this ends Maybe we'll no longer be the same And all it's left Is only a mirage of what we were Little fragments melt into thin air

Too much comfort caused big troubles We were stuck in our bubble of sins We were weak, we were so fragile In the face of any adversity Playing the victim is a dangerous role You embrace the feeling so much You make it yours and believe it is true No longer a camouflage It's deadly poison straight to your heart A serious infection corrupting your mind I'm the absence of light I'm the black cloud that covers All things that glitter, all things that shine Swimming in a black ocean I breathe and dive into the abyss Sinking deeper You are in the midst of a whirlpool Now it is up to you Don't let this ghost drag you down Always fighting against external factors That conspire against you The poor and lonely warrior who faces alone An army of curses and bad spells I'm the absence of light I'm the black cloud that covers All things that glitter, all things that shine Swimming in a black ocean I breathe and dive into the abyss Sinking deeper You are in the midst of a whirlpool Now it is up to you Don't let this ghost drag you down Analyze your own behavior You are a burning man setting fires everywhere You are the only one responsible So just deal with it
