about

There is a level at which isolation from the rest of (wo)mankind can be tolling to the point of alienation. We are social creatures regardless of opinions to the contrary and we rely on collective structures to maintain a notion of integrity. Alone in the wild, all human references are gone and old ones are forgotten with time. Soon the identity escapes the confines of the self and the mind wanders like the threads of worn fabrics loosening as the days go by...

lyrics

MENTAL WOUND



TORN APART BETWEEN POLES OF EXTREME DISTANCE
FREE ONE DAY, THE NEXT BACK TO A CONFINED SPACE
NO BOOZE, NO DRUGS,
JUST THE THOUGHTS OF A TORTURED MIND
A RIPPLE ON THE WATER
TELLS A TALE OF DEEP TROUBLE BENEATH THE EARTH

UP WITH THE PROMISE OF A NEW MORNING FULL OF GRACE
AT NIGHT, IT’S BACK AND TIRED TO AN EMPTY BED
CRUEL ALIENATION OF A MAN IN THE WRONG PLACE AND TIME
IT MAKES ONE WONDER ABOUT THE RUMOURS
OF A GOD SO JUST AND FAIR
PULLING THESE STRINGS FROM HELL

FALLING THROUGH THE CRACKS OF THIS OLD WORN OUT FLOOR
NO ONE KNOWS WHERE IT LEADS
THOUGH NO ONE WILL BE SPARED AT ALL
IT’S JUST THIS ONE GUY BEING PLAYED LIKE A PAWN ON THE BOARD
SOME JOKER THINKS IT’S FUN TO TURN THE KNIFE A NOTCH OR TWO
INSIDE THE MENTAL WOUND
