Lyrics:
A better world within reach,
A turning point of the decade.
A world in need of salvation.
Nothing, for now, is fixed
(but it will be)
Rise above the emotional consequences of this age.
Exalted Heaven is reached.
The Earth stands in awe, once more.
Plague of darkness
Like blobs on the ground.
Although they move around me,
They cannot stay there.
I am as One with the Earth.
As One with the flow of time.
As One, I open up my eyes.
I open my eyes in the morning light.
And run as much as I can.
When the past fades,
I become a light.
When the future fades,
I become a flame.

The aptly-named Hauntings write songs that are sinister and moody—the seconds in a horror film right before the jump scare. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 3, 2023
