Play Dead 03:40
Play Dead I know that I don’t deserve you But I’m trying to make my way I’ve been told to avoid you I never cared what those people say I know that I can’t control you I wouldn’t want to try anyway You say you’ve no where to go to I would never ask you to change I will do anything you say If you have the nerve to stay Don’t say this Is the only time Don’t say this Is the end We can run through the streets all night Or we can stay in the bed Let’s just play dead Let’s just play dead I will do anything you say If you have the nerve to stay Purge the demons in my eyes Put my sin on full display As we burn the night away Throw my doubt into the flames I will show you what it means When you’re calling out my name
2.
Haunted 04:06
Haunted When I lie alone But I can sense the dread When you say my name Even though you’re dead In the corner where the cat stares There’s a feeling that you’re still there lights that flicker in the cold air Because your shadow still lives here Haunted by a lover gone Haunted by a lover gone When I smell your scent And I can feel your grief When I’ve lost some time When you send me dreams Do the footsteps in the hall Mean you’re coming for me now? When you wake me with your call Will your spirit hold me down?
3.
For the Kill 03:52
For The Kill Chimera doesn’t want your pity Her twisted heart does not care Made of all the things that scare you And every piece unaware When the mirror screams It screams run away from here Love, Love tore her apart And left her to rebuild Now she wants a new start She’s going in for the kill For the kill Chimera doesn’t know your dream But knows what makes you afraid The things she wants aren’t what they seem And not worth the price to be paid She knows it won’t be easy She knows she can’t be saved She won’t become what they see They won’t be left unscathed
4.
Aria 04:25
Aria Aria stands in a jet black dress In the corner of the room She wants to talk but hates the stress She needs her solitude She says she knows she’s hard to love She spends her days just dreaming of A chance to prove her quiet tones Don’t mean she wants a life alone Ooh Aria Aria wants what she can’t have A place where she can concentrate She knows her world might seem too sad But she don’t mind the constant rain
5.
Self Destruct If you could only change yourself You could be their everything Do you feel you're not good enough? Why do you care what they think? If you only could… What would you change? Can you tell me how I can get you through? When I spend all my time Saving you from you Self destruct Is it hard for you to say no? Do you feel their condescension? They want you to do what you’re told And you do for their attention Does the noise inside your head take your focus from the dread? If I take away your stress Will you push me to the edge?

Still Feel 03:18
Still Feel The cold doesn’t mind if I close my eyes The snow keeps me warm if I stay still The night talks to me when I say goodbye The pain is a sign that I still feel If I let go Why do I still feel? The cracks in the ice have I lost my mind? The depths choke the life from my last will The deep coaxes me to leave it behind The shell that was me with a cold chill If I let go Why do I still feel? Something inside me wants me to hate you Something inside me wants me to live So now I find you living in my head When I know I have nothing left to give If I let go Why do I still feel?
8.
Imposter 03:24
Imposter I am everything that you need But I’m not I’m the sinner that makes you see What you’re taught I make every day seem to be What you bought I’m the cure for things that you bleed But I’m not Trying to find the innocence In what I have become Imposter Not the real thing Imposter Not the right dose A monster Not what you think Imposter Not the antidote I’m the poison you think you need But you don’t I’m the bullet to set you free But you won’t I’m your savior the absentee Holy ghost I’m the reason I guarantee That you hoped When you walk away from me I feel the air rush from my lungs When you tell me you can’t see The person come undone
9.
By Your Side 03:25
By Your Side When the black seas rise And the walls collapse When our worlds collide And our souls are trapped Nothing else matters When I take your hand Not the thin black smoke Or the desert sands We’ll find a way to make it Past the gates of hell To the shores of promise Where only time will tell And I will be by your side When the red moon shines On the streets of ash Most of humankind Has already passed Come hell or high water Come storm or sea When I need to be stronger I will find you next to me
10.
Decay 03:40
Decay When you see the hunter But you find no prey When you feel the demon But you’ve lost your saint As time goes by The ambition dies When the sun goes down Our souls fade away Like shadows at night We become decay Where there is no killer And there is no game Where you can’t shake the feeling That you’ve lost your way You were so sure That fate would call But there’s no rise And there’s no fall You thought your life Would be the fight But there’s no black And there’s no white
11.
Before the Plague Before the plague We took each other For granted every day We can’t recover Memories that fade away Now we know the isolation So we hate the things that change We can’t face the realization That our lives can never be the same Before the plague We gave our lovers A debt we can’t repay We lived in color But now we can’t look away Before the plague We thought we suffered But we lived in disarray Then we discovered What can be taken away
12.
The Alchemy of You What I want I cannot have But I can watch you leave What I say I can’t take back And I can not complete What I make I run from So I can’t be to blame I fly to you like a moth That can’t resist the flame You make your move to the next stage And leave me behind Are you becoming someone? Are you making something new? Is this the transformation? Is this the alchemy of you? The alchemy of you What I know I can’t forget But I can curse the change What I feel I cannot touch And I can sense the danger What I see I can’t unsee But I can swear the truth I fall for you a helpless man Who’s taken for a fool Can I hold you close enough that you concede? Can I make you see the depth of urgency? Am I standing in the way? Is there nothing I can say? Am I worth the evolution you create?

about

Our first year was spent discovering our own sound. We published EP's and singles as we experimented and, along the way, we created some material we were proud of and some that probably wasn't ready for public consumption. In September of 2022 we released our first full length album, Gray Gardens. That album, and the subsequent material, presents a more focused creative approach, better song writing and improved production. We've decided to archive our first year, with the exception of twelve tracks that we believe deserve an upgrade and another listen.

Remastered and re-released, this is Year 1.
