Step into my world Step into my world Step into my world Step into my world… In this life I’ve long been unseen Hidden from the evil eyes of people And it hurts to keep it bottled inside Words you want to say don’t see the light of day But you are safe here, you are safe And you are free here, you are free In here you can be who you want to be Come and join in my new reality Run away to the forest with me A world you can see only in your dreams Till the time is right, and you’ll finally see Just how precious life could all be In this world detached from reality I hope you can find your inner peace And it hurts to have kept it bottled inside But words you want to say are now clear as day And you are safe here, you are safe And you are free here, you are free Under the gentle shade of the tall-grown trees You are now as safe as you can be Run away to the forest with me A world you can see only in your dreams Till the time is right, and you’ll finally see Just how precious life could all be Love will always win at the end of the day Its power can defeat the hate that you face And though you may be hurting today Just live for tomorrow, and you’ll be okay And the hurt you feel will soon dissipate Like a sun kissed flower in spring’s embrace So just hold on for a little while longer And you will come out a million times stronger And while you sit in your chrysalis Dream of this world and all its blessings Here you can find the love that you seek Until you find the life that you once dreamed Run away to the forest with me A world you can see only in your dreams Till the time is right, and you’ll finally see Just how precious life could all be Your wings have sprouted, the shell has cracked Fly away now, you’re as free as a bird Glimmering, overlooking the shining sea A life you had only seen in these dreams

If I had lost you, I wouldn't know what to do Your deep dark eyes long to embrace the cold Your world is painted with lifeless shades of blue I heard it once, but now, the death knell tolls You dive deep, deep into the ocean's cold and warmth The waves pull, pull you closer to the blind dark You're sinking, you're sinking into the never-ending abyss All you see is darkness at the bottom of the ocean Remember when we played by the riverside It was the last I saw of your gaunt smile I cursed the fiends who stole the years of your shrouded past I saw the day your flag flew at half-mast You dive deep, deep into the ocean's cold and warmth The waves pull, pull you closer to the blind dark You're sinking and sinking into the never ending abyss All you see is darkness at the bottom of the ocean You dive deep, deep into the ocean's cold and warmth The waves pull, pull you closer to the blind dark You're sinking and sinking into the never ending abyss All you see is darkness at the bottom of the ocean (All you see is darkness at the bottom of the ocean) Get out from the water before you can't escape (Succumb to my cruel embrace) Hold my hand and don't you let it go, you will escape (Look and despair at the souls of the damned) You will escape, you will create, the past erased, the present remains (Join the fallen and sleep forever in the ocean grave) Just hold on to my loving embrace (You can't escape. Let go)

Ozymandias 04:01
When I'm gone Who will be there to say my name? I'm alone The top is the loneliest place The world is crumbling around me No one can see what I can see My enemies will see me die I'm a canvas, my friends have knives Look on my works and you will find nothing of my kingdom's time How much higher must I climb to leave this Earth of mine divine? Ozymandias, I walk on a single road Ozymandias, in time I will turn to dust Is everything I've done in life enough to be written in time? No one out there knows my name, no one's got the words to say Ozymandias, I hope I am kind and just On my throne I see my kingdom bright as day So alone Looking down, hearing what they say My people, they mourn and cry Memento mori, we all must die Not even gods stand the test of time It burns the vision of the divine Honor me in death as you did in life Scatter my ashes, with the wind they fly Pollinate the Earth and praise the sky My world lives on in every place and time Ozymandias, I walk on a single road Ozymandias, in time I will turn to dust Is everything I've done in life enough to be written in time? No one out there knows my name, no one's got the words to say Ozymandias, I hope I am kind and just Ozymandias, when the last song is sung Ozymandias, when the last story's told Is everything I've done in life enough to be written in time? No one out there knows my name, no one's got the words to say Ozymandias, I hope I was kind and just Ozymandias, now I have turned to dust

Blood 04:07
Blood is in the air Blood is in the eyes Blood is in my tears When you see me cry The forests, the trees They all sing to me All their mellow voices All their haunting noises You bloom so elegantly yet patiently Like bonsai beginning to find its roots But you are still so delicate, filled with fragility And when you decay the world loses a piece of itself too A song of lost love A song of love lost Whatever we shared Is no longer with us But I still carry hope That you might remember Who I am and what we were I hope you don't forget Blood is in the air Blood is in the eyes Blood is in my tears When you see me cry And if I should pass on To the afterlife Just know that you Were a true friend of mine And if the water Should keep us apart Just know that I will cross the seas To win back your heart And when this is over I promise I'll be there for you Until the end of time The petrichor in the air brings about a premonition, washing away the mildew in your eyes Yet I still must wait for you to blossom and grow, no matter how hard I try But in the midst of all this I implore you to remember You are young, don't fall into the illusion of trust Blood is in the air (Blood is in the air) Blood is in the eyes (Blood is in the eyes) Blood is in my tears (Blood is in my tears) When you see me cry (In the crimson night) Blood is on my hands (Blood is not what binds us) Spilled all over me now (Blood is all around us) I never had a plan (Blood is just what makes us) I just wanted you back (Makes us feel alive) Blood is in the air (Blood is in the air) Blood is in the eyes (Blood is in the eyes) Blood is in my tears (Blood is in my tears) In the crimson night (In the crimson night) Blood is not what binds us (Blood is not what binds us) Blood is all around us (Blood is all around us) Blood is just what makes us (Blood is just what makes us) Makes us feel alive (Makes us feel alive) Deep down I hope you remember All that we shared All that we knew (So, in your darkest hours, think of the time we spent together) All that we loved (The memories we still remember) All that we learned All that we had All that we lost (The memories of us)

Home 03:55
I still dream of my old home Lush poplar and blooming cypress Clear water flowing in the river Not muddied by the blood of innocents I still dream of blue skies Sandgrouse, doves and pied kingfishers Soaring high in God's own kingdom Not obscured by the billowing smoke Time could not wash away our past It stands, stalwart, unyielding and grand But those who stand do so shakingly People more so than monuments Though I still dream of my hometown I may have never had one to begin with And though I am a long way from home Perhaps it is all for the best With this song, I hope I can Tell a story of my own life For in my home, there lie kids suffering And their stories are theirs to tell And I hope one day I could return To those green fields and blossomed trees Though time lives on with its own devices None of them are crueler than war There's no way back Nowhere is home No life to yield No seeds to sow I must go on Carry on This long stretched road In search of home Fantasies, illusions, a mirage in the burning hot desert, wild eyed Drunken, I create my own worlds That I may call home In reality's oblivious ruin That I may step into at will and at ease Where birds may find their home Again atop the trees Step into my world Step into (Step into...) Step into my world, a place I call home Step into my world Step into my world Step into my world Step into my world

about

Avalon is a self written/produced EP made over the past year. It's primarily dream pop and folktronica with other genre influences in there like R&B, electropop and classical/orchestral music. I've tried to make it as cohesive as I can, as the EP tells an intricate story of love and loss.
