Your horizon is on fire. Stars killed by a dawn that only draws more blood. In a time divide to satisfy the promises you spin, allowed to crucify to find yourself again. (chorus) The bluest hue surrounds you and colours what we are, not fading when we fall. A breathe of air provides you another place to go, a way to take control. Fearless forgiven to cry, a faceless form beholds a calendar of eyes. The three words are spoken, a forward motion rushing towards us. Inside the air is thin, our hearts are caving.

fall in the sea of the spaces open walls & feel the full gravity & the pressure rushing in & causing sores infatuated by the fevered skin afraid the voices that you hear are there press down the kill-switch hoping it will end this supernova is not over yet exhausted voices whispering the saint wave-lengths decay a chest escapes a sigh mouth is a vacuum, air evacuate a body collapse with me on stand-by fall on your knees covered faces hold your breath inside the walls underneath isolation a distraction from the cold infatuated by the fevered skin afraid the voices that you hear are there push down the kill-switch hoping it will end this supernova is not over yet exhausted voices whispering the saint wave-lengths decay a chest escapes a sigh mouth is a vacuum, air evacuate a body collapse with me on stand-by

Sleep Dep 03:25
My mind is wired & i can't think Live in a fog stuck on repeat A world at war, no sign of peace I feel the guilt, yet do nothing A growing stain hangs over me I cry & plead, but no relief Tell myself that it will leave My eyes are closed but I still can't sleep chorus: Thoughts are burning in my head, making fire, & breaking my bed The darkest night cannot save me This is the life I lead Ripping through me & digging deep An emptiness too big to keep my mind alive, just watch it bleed I swim against an endless sea, devoured by rivers of grief There's sorrow killing my belief humanity deserves to live I'm dead tired, but I still can't sleep (chorus) (repeat verse 2) Will the sun rise to melt the snow that froze this hell? Does your Savior know what's on my mind? I'd destroy the world if it were mine

Dark 02:09
Consuming like the ocean, vacuum of emotion. A mouth that's always open, lips that never speak. A deadweight that is weightless, a place forever nameless, shadows of the shapeless, swallowing the sun.

about

Debut EP from experimental/electronic duo, Raised by Aliens, explores topics as diverse as nature, insomnia, orgasms, astral projection, & recurring dreams.

Psytrance & World Music subtly intertwine with retro-tinged New Wave & Synthpop to bring these topics & experiences into a new, foreign reality. Perched somewhere between palpable darkness & ethereal light, this is definitely "An Odd World".

collaborating vocalists: Danii Noir, Syntyche, Karmatic Dreams, & Phoenix Redd
