Alive But Somewhere Else

Bryan Andrade This is the most brutal album these guys produced; there is an element of cold, unforgiving winter you can’t help associate with the songs. I love Moon and Sun for grueling workouts, or long drives. If you need motivation, rock to this.

Awash in the glow of a life force A midsummer's day and through into autumn The calming scent and perfume A fog of memories encircles his mind To block out the whirlwind The path of life that takes him far away Body and mind separate The distance increased, the days become more unclear Rest and hold on Shoulder the loss I'm weighed down now... The flowers all fade and colors run The flowing rivers slow and halt They're freezing around his own world Where sunlight never dies Ever breaking limbs from his tree The cold grips fast Call of blossoms and the meadows He's alive but somewhere else When undone, he should learn to value the earth Under his feet at night Embrace the time Alone to heal Remnants of a heart long gone are recycled For the pain again And weighed down, it seems His future belongs to sorrow Rest and hold on Shoulder the loss I'm weighed down now... And resting on the slopes of their hill The young spirits remain entwined But his body will age, frost takes it's toll As he forges a world where his sun never died Ever breaking limbs from his tree The cold grips fast Call of blossoms and the meadows I'm alive but somewhere else

Here I, as a loner Do feel the texture of the edge Tracing paths for days on end A crisp and jagged line So easy to step over So welcoming to fall from In every passing glimpse With each painful breath Your memory fades and slips Into a void with nothing left I breathe in the clouds and exhale the rain A system built for survival Feel your hand in mine Skin where glass once was A frozen knife disappears Frosted window into future life Warms and clears Selfless introspection, returning inner strength Trapped by a solid seal of fear The walls around me breaking now Spaces abound with dormant life Traverse the fields Droplets that once froze now melt the ice I breathe in the clouds and exhale the rain A system built for survival Leaving my soul Hesitation sinks back into me And cements the grief till the end time Cold ghost asks if I would remain here And marry the dark I said yes

Alive 03:36
I have tried to refuse my breath A struggle that extends the days Without end Time is stretched I leave the pain I step into the fields In the garden I see the blood slowly seep Into the other side Energizing the stillness Reflecting the sun And you into my eye My last time complete, whole Send me far from here Away I dragged myself into fear And with it shamed your strength See the sun's rays Bringing the end Once I accept I never could save you I'll step back out of the garden's way And if you wish, I'll remain to see you Here with me Alive and awake today My last time complete, whole Send me far from here Away I dragged myself into fear And with it shamed your strength See the sun's rays Bringing the end

Resonate 03:54
Too long within spinning months And false healing With the shame that supplements all the pain It's unhealthy Casting down any chance to come back From the loss An excuse to live without restraint The new, remade It's unholy The other side, hedon dark Sunlight and the southern wind The life you want, your open heart Resonate the two apart Here in the path of a moving system Suffering without end Walking the path That will lead to a death without healing With no acceptance of what was taken Movement within the stretching light Bulbs bloom, blood warms So come what gives life Tower over the wetlands Raise the flowers And the roots from your hand The other side, hedon dark Sunlight and the southern wind The life you want, your open heart Resonate the two apart Introspection, growing far from seeds This perfection, to arise from grief

Wade into solitude and despair Welcome back the easy fix Barely started our year Left with chilling helplessness One body No aid flows from this And to see all our hearts in pain Wails and cries, again Into the depths you leave us Under the stars, dim vacant space The dead roots of our lifetime And memories of summer, gone to waste Loss of sight and senses, always Tarnished what was special In my own way All at once, forever Lose you And at night remember Miss you But I see past this grey Meaningful was our fate Above the winding lesions The peeling bond of sun and moon Forever wandering, fading The cuts, far too deep Flooded lungs, welcome sleep Loss of sight and senses, always Tarnished what was special In my own way All at once, forever Lose you And at night remember Miss you Seeking relief Nowhere to turn No roads to healing But a path to damage, I've found

Heartspace 03:55
In the white hall Bare room my only friend A statue stands silent You breathe for the last time The stars arise Beauty in shades of silver twilight The world envelops you in sleep and dreams forever The golden fields your hair And the fauna your voice The pink in setting skies your veins Free at last Warming love and inner sighs Reaction to all our cries The stars arise Beauty in shades of silver twilight The world envelops you in sleep and dreams forever In the cold, in the warmth All seasons your essence empowered Underground, in the rivers and sky A space for your heart The caress of ferns your embrace And the oceans your tears And even the highest mountain pales To the reach of your soul Heart waning Heart beating fast Heart waning Blood pumping past You stare right back In the cold, in the warmth All seasons your essence empowered Underground, in the rivers and sky A space for your heart

Moon And Sun 09:34
Snow covered foreign roads All wasted, fleeting light And to the other side I'm falling In swirling darkness I'm rolling over you and your darkening That shadows me For her mind, no words And to the eyes, blind Snow roads coming down For her mind No words to the eyes Blind Snow roads coming down A late message to convey what's deserved But choking on the sound, he falters When he's needed most Peering back at fate Moments in this life And time spent without love Collapsing into words The warmth begins to fade The moon outlives the sun And before we knew it, he was nowhere to be found Again and again Sun worship, eternal Here extend the soulless nights Contempt for all that remain On to be only me And a life of repetition Incomplete Waking hours repeat all alone And laying here without my sun, I stay All the ways, could have lifted you up To be safe And know you are the light of the world My time was made for you My purpose stands to shine your light in the dark And now I'm without you Do you even know The warm scent of fulfillment and joy His desire for the world inside Calling inside all the worlds that could be And dousing fires with his grief Outstretching to the stars Distant glow above the shadowed cold And damaged, powdered skin Bearing one million signs of past strength Hollowed out now, left barren No reflection on the waters for them to see Not for them to know Moments in this dream And time spent without love Extending on for years Her warmth began to fade The sun has left the moon And before we knew it, she was nowhere to be found Again and again and again Sun worship, eternal All seeing, radiant pain Is the master that pushes him Flowing through his pierced surface As he slowly circles the world Left in shadow Lingering on for all too long Forever alone Here within his space The other side A fleeting glimpse back to normality But still tethered here He felt the warm light fade And when the sun is gone, the moon is brave The moon is brave
