lyrics

The question isn't where, it’s when
And can we start over again, start over again,
or at least put things to an end?
So how can you have time
when it clearly has you?
how can you have time
when it clearly has you?

What we know is but a drop
What we don't know is an ocean
Pain is our ship
And desire, is our compass

Most people are nothing more
but pawns on a chessboard led by an unknown hand
I refuse to wander through this wasteland
or navigate us through this this labyrinth until my death
You and I are perfect for each other
Never believe anything else
Never believe anything else

What we know is a drop
What we don't know is an ocean
Pain is our ship
Desire, is our compass
I’ve reflected on this moment for many years
When my fears were brought to the surface

if you gaze long enough into the Abyss
the Abyss also gazes into you
The paradise we were promised is nothing but a lie
It's nothing but a lie
It’s nothing but a lie

What we know is but a drop
What we don't know is an ocean
Pain is our ship
And desire, is our compass

What we know is a drop
And the rest is an ocean
Pain is our ship
Desire our compass,
we can't stop goin through the motions
I’ve reflected on this moment for many years
When my fears were brought to the surface

The Sound of Time Running Out EP
by Pretty Little Kennedy Curse

Pretty Little Kennedy Curse is a refreshing blend of early 2000's pop-punk and emo. Catchy, fun and breathtaking all at once, you're seriously missing out if you don't download their full length. A Place In Time

No Joy
by Spanish Love Songs

supported by 4 fans who also own “Hypertorus”

viscerally affected by covid, this album has a less optimistic but more accepting message than the previous. it reaches the heart of my experience (and others'?) in a cathartic and depressing acknowledgement. it's nice to know you feel the same niq
