Darkness always wins
Liner Notes
Lyrics
A timeline full of ghosts
Thoughts from different days
A tear drop in the sea
The rise and fall of me
The monster from the past
Was never dead and gone
We knew it ever since
Darkness always wins
All hopes and aspirations
Dreams of love and fear
No one ever knows
Where did they all go
We couldn’t care less
While we couldn’t care more
For the people in front of and behind the door
Empathy of mine
failed the test of time
When it’s time to choose
We all fall down
Nothing remains the same for me
the sky looks still opaque to me
Nothing remains the same for me
the sky looks still opaque to me
Nothing remains the same for me
the sky looks still strange to me

Dude, this is a banger. I just told a friend I'm not into "emo lyrics" anymore, but I think I lied. You captured a moment when someone feels completely hopeless about humanity, and it worked. I'm a sucker for good synth, too. Love the build-up and the layers. My Cruxshadows fan is showing.... 😁

Firstly, great lyrics! But then the music and vocals are awesome. Great production and the big dramatic section caught me by surprise after the gentler start. Very nice work

I have been described as a "Pathological Optimist" so I should hate the lyrics, but they fit the music so perfectly.
In short, I loved it 😁
