Another sleepless night running away from my shadow Another failing attempt for recognize this face Another dawn and my dream keeps unhallowed Another day trying to drain your ghost from my veins Countless times I have cried for compassion Countless times I have asked for a glimpse of his aid He never answered my prayers for end this benighted interaction But then, someone else in the wind said my name … Am I being possessed by the starless night? Or am I just losing my tormented mind? It really doesn’t matter what… in the end… I’m just one more step away from the light…

Empty, see this hollow being Self-righteous, but without self- esteem Struggling for see what they see Fulfilling what they hope for me For years I’ve kept you tamed For pleasing all the shameless For years I have pretended That you are not real… Immaculate, draconian mind Enslaved by the ancient stars I scream the flaws in master plan Now cross the gates, chaos of mine! Eons of Darkness – Defying me, defining me Forsaken Nightmares – Awaken me, awake in me A step away from the light! Break me: I’m the mask they built Destroy all what they left within Fallen, just to set me free And wingless, walk against their will They promise me redemption You give me emancipation I summon to the wind My other me… ... I am the one who falls… I’m on my way to give you a life I’m on my way to tear down the lie Don’t let me... let me realize Your name… the wind… I’m on my way to give you a life I’m on my way to tear down the lie Don’t let me, don´t let me realize Your name… the wind whispered back… I’m on my way to give you a life I’m on my way to tear down the lie Don’t let me, don´t let me realize That was your name the wind whispered back… I’m on my way to give you a life I cross the gate to let you come back I’m out of place in the master plan I will create a greater design I’m on my way to give you a life A Leap of faith away from the light I feel again this chaos of mine I’m on my way to feel me alive I am the way!

Caught in the walls of my endless wreck being a prisoner of my sins Live through my fears, life comes too late Nothing is farther than this reflect Still nothing seems to be different from days of past when I just stood still Oh, precious life, where did you go? Where did you were when I was young? Life, your performance I miss it at all I realize it but time‘s not enough Time, wasting time, wasted tired of me Lies, wasted lies, waking tiles full of fear Breathing each day like if be here’s a grief I’ve wasted my time until time wasted me I had the chance for a fulfilled way But I just embraced a monotony aim There was control, yet I’ve gone astray Pathetic shade of myself ... As I lost my soul I can hear your voice As my faith dries up I feel my will… Rise! ... As I find the light on my own As my torn heart tries to reborn All the broken leaves of the fall Bay my dreams, drown in the fog

I can't feel your soul in my way I can't feel your hands in my face But I can feel your hate in my chest I can feel your lips in my breath Through my insane obsession on you I perceive your madness towards my wrinkles Your acts, your words your promises to me They lay in your thoughts of shallow life Your lips appear like sadness You – Don’t exist in my darkness You – disappear in my senses Loathe your ephemeral shining Your skills destroy my homeostasis my delight turns to fear for your absence Your appearance enjoys my anger Your thighs start to feel like knives in my hands Oh, I still love you Oh, I still hate you
5.
So here you are looking for freedom A right I’m not sure you deserve A journey of life so inferior That lost his reflection in vain You think that your life’s an achievement Oh, don’t make me laugh… Pedestrian tries for getting a smile! Despicable man! Not worth it for nothing but… Live myself through you… So much for walking on the edge for you So much for knowing can’t stand me loner So much for praying for a start anew So much for wake me and feel so low Oh, I feel so low… The willing is… gone! But why do you ask for distinction? You’re setting below average You don’t even know how to live on Out of the light, out of the cage Your efforts become so unreal Such (a) meaningless life… Expecting my light, for castles of sands Despicable man! Not worth it for nothing but… Live myself through you… So much for walking on the edge for you So much for knowing can’t stand me loner So much for praying for a start anew So much for wake me and… Feel me guilty – All that I am living just Kill me, thrill me – All that I defeated was Just within me I’m nothing but just fiction, don’t know what to do …I can’t face the truth! ... The dreadful tomorrow (You can’t escape from me!) The dreadful to be (Can’t walk away from me!) The dreadful tomorrow (Your life belongs to me!) The dreadful belief (There’s no way out!) No feeling, no sorrow! (I am the light!) No place left to be (I am the path!) No dreams for tomorrow! (I’ll break you down!) No world left to be… (No world left to be…)

Tell me why I can feel you, but I can't see your… life Explain me why, I think about you, but I can't perceive your… heart Tell me why I can hate you, but I can't stop loving your shine Why you lie? I can understand you, but I can't take you out of my mind Rejection hurt's me... Because perhaps… You have forgotten me In the night, I fear you, but I want your Essence Among my arms When you play, I can hear you, but you disappear from our sight Your Lies belong to me... Now I know… You have forgotten me

Break me! From the stars, you cannot save me Am I lost my shadow? Maybe And I feel the darkness breaks the silence off the wall Break me! Since I’m now afraid to face me Is my life so shallow? Maybe ´Cause I feel the darkness breaks the silence off the wall and now… Break free! But there’s nothing left to take it Have you lost your shadow? Maybe Can you feel the darkness breaks the silence off the wall? Break free! But there’s nothing left to save it Just a crumbling marrow fading As you feel the darkness breaks the silence off the wall Your reflection’s lost… The Wall… …Is whispering the way out The Wall… …This mirror turned black! The World… The World… …Is guiding the stars to the tomb …Is feeling the crawl through the gloom …Is breeding a crow in her womb …Will open the gates to the doom Break me! I’m not brave enough to make it My own whispering betrays me While I feel the darkness breaks the silence off the wall Break me! And release the ones who crazed me (am I) Being dissociative? Maybe But I feel the darkness breaks the silence off the wall and now... Break free! From the increasing storm your pain is Is my voice (what) you follow? Maybe Do you hear the darkness breaks the silence off the wall? Break free! From the ones your life enslaved it Is your own volition yelling? That you feel the darkness breaks the silence off the wall? Your reflection’s lost… ... “And nothing’s left but what it’s about to be done The razor feels cold and the water runs hot… A glimpse of a life diluted in a thread of blood A stain on the wall, a shattered mirror and a broken soul… The one I see is not the one is being shown There’s nobody here, but I’m sure I’m not alone A portrait of a face I won’t recognize at dawn I still haven’t gone, but I am not myself anymore…” Life Is just that one I’ve left behind? Torn asunder Spreading into pieces of an ever-failing path A crowded mind But still a barren land An empty vessel (that) countless ones will occupy The water cleans the waste But the sewer can’t restrain A thousand shades inside myself running away A million crows will fly And Make sun no longer shine An age of chaos overcome your masquerade of light Your plan, your master lie Corrupted ancient stars I rather fall again and reincarnate in somber lands! If I still go, if I still fall Without the feel that I belong If I still go, if I still fall If I still feel the final crush And If I found that I’ve been gone In amok run towards the ground And when I hit rock bottom, What… if I still fall? ... The World… the World… …is falling down The World is falling down! Beginning a new dawn…

about

Dark Progressive Metal

A Step Away from the Light is a melodic, extreme and melancholic sonic journey that deals with loss: of identity, of love, of sanity, and divinity... About the duality of going mad or being possessed.

The ever–night uncertainty of a tormented soul, wondering: “is this feeling of darkness a descent to madness? Or is it a descent to hell?... And in the end, what’s the difference? Loose your mind, or loose the divine grace, takes us to the same destination: to give a step away from the light…
