Feeling so tired of it all
Sleepless child all alone - playing in the darkness
Follow the light
Running down the hall
But don’t you cry
When you fall
You will fall - down the hole
Twinkle twinkle little bat
How I wonder what you’re at
Up above the world you fly
Like a tea tray in the sky
Cheshire cheshire little cat
Wonder what you’re laughing at
Deep within the gaze you hide
Leaving just your lovely smile
Hurry hurry little one
We are waiting for you to come
Don’t lose time and don’t get mad
Otherwise you’ll lose your head
Off with her head
Stranger in the night
I can see you in the woods
Fallen right into that place
Dancing yourself away
Off with her head

The Dice
06:06
|
|||
One night in balance with earth in peace
The prophets spread words about bitter cold
A small, subtle turn on the lone ocean’s breeze
For maids, men and kingdoms to break and turn old
Roll the Dice, little god
Change the order for entropy
For all the rules to derange and crumble
For poor men to rise and kings to...
Roll the Dice, little god
Force your will upon equity
Another way for a king to be humble
Upon his demise his reign will crumble
The tumorous hive mind, grasping for grounds
And thankful sheep for joining the sounds
Blind for autonomy, so blind for deceit
With a roll of the dice they could break through the bounds!
The quake’s over,
The dust comes down,
A dull night ends
For a day to come
Opening up his tired eyes
The dead woke up to the sun shining twice

Mantra

Mind awake
Body asleep
There’s a strange and dark sensation
Ascending in me,
As my limbs seem to slip away
Contorting me,
I leave my body
And set my consciousness free.
There I am in the gray and naked
Templates of my dreams,
Where a world is born around my face,
In my head and yet so real.
And my senses start to besiege my mind
And I soon forget my fears
Because the best illusions are just those
In which you let your mind be free.
It’s still dark around my mind
And I reach out and shout
But I’m still under water
And there’s shadows ’round my spine
But the instant I gaze upon the
Glowing spot of light
On the horizon
My world begins to shine
And I rise upon the mountains
And there’s freedom in my lungs
And I’ll never cease the forming
Of this world without my hands
But my dream has just begun
Oh, my dream has just begun
And I’ll never cease the forming
Of this world without my hands
Mind awake
Body asleep
I see clear and understand
My eyes are starving so I feed.
And I breathe in while I sense
The ground’s feedback under my feet.
And I realize the air I’m breathing
Can’t exist on the ocean bed
And it reminds me
That I’m still asleep
Mind awake
Body asleep
Mind awake

Rust and Amber
06:10
|
|||
Like a former mother, blind and broken, resting on a globe,
Listening for the echoes of the lyre’s call for hope,
Turmoil and empathy, words of wisdom,
None of those remain, listen to the singing rain
Leave me in apathy, with nowhere to go,
Leave me to see the world and I’m going home,
Waiting for a something I can’t even name,
Unwilling to be angry for there’s no one left to blame
After this ride, I feel like
Sitting in a roller coaster, coming to an end,
I’ve seen the world from above,
Sitting in an airplane and watching it descend,
And when our flame dies
And you and I end,
I shake off the rust
And you put me to rest.
Desperate, I’m clinging onto my memories of our days,
But just as my grief for you they will fade away.
Just as my grief for you they will fade away
You put me to rest

The Inner Circle
05:19
|

Straight they keep on walking
It’s too loud, but no one’s talking
A breeze drifting by
My body seems to fade
I’m not feeling like I am here
I’m not feeling like I should
Stranger in my own world
Everything just flows around me
I’m drifting away…
Fading
I’m fading
I’m fading away…
I can feel it all around me
Fade
Fading
Spinning head
What’s going on inside my head
Can’t get it out of my head
Like I am going mad
So mad
|
||||
6. |

I’m trying to hide in my shelter
In a way to rest and atone
Declining a choice to be made
Despite it being carved in stone
They’ve called me chimaera forever
For I’d forgotten what I’ve been.
Tranquility emerges from a
Darkness never seen...
So I observe
And I lament
So I relent
‘Cause I deserve...
Let me see that mind you lost
Corrupted by authority,
And while your dreams are seized and tossed
Her echo is your sonority.
The mirage that breaks your mind
Reclusion is a heavy freight,
Leave your material form behind
And reach in peace a higher state.

The Toll
08:02
|
|||
I am illuminated
By a burning sky
Erasing my ego’s
Monumental lie
Ripping the concept of matter
From a twisted soul
And bringing solipsism
For this is our toll
So here's a tale without an end
A ride without a goal
An increase without amend
A dam without a foal
When all the chains are broken
And all the words are spoken
I am
Lost in solitude
When all the winds have vanished
And all the tales are banished
When all the chains are broken
And all the words are spoken
I am
Wandering in vain
The grand eclipse awaited
Staggering, impossible
Event horizon dashing to
Eradicate us all
A shooting star, lonely,
Drawing a curtain of
Light across the night sky
On its way home.
Shooting stars
Crumble tides
Rising higher up
To the sky
We are

Zenith
08:51
|
|||
Adrift I am
I’ve been here for a lifespan,
Awaiting the end...
So here I am,
Apathetically gazing
Through my screen of polycarbonate
So here I am,
Drifting, shifting
Through a clarified, but altered state
And my eyes slowly
Wander across the sea of suns
And my mind starts to wonder
Does it end or has it just begun?
Soon, as I will seize to be, I see
That the vastness is a mirror to me
I relent, as in I give,
And silent falls my will to live,
In the end.
And my eyes slowly
Immerge into the sea of suns
And I rise above the only
Barrier between all and none
In the end
In the end I crave for
Silence of the voices,
They’ve made me cry for
Long forgotten choices
In the end I seek the
Feeling of security
So I bare my soul to
The obscurity
Nadir, I lost you way back
Crossing the thin red line
Lights up and fade to pitch black
Nadir, I left you in time
Zenith, I embrace you
Scenic, my last goodbyes
Let go, illusions come true
Zenith, euthanize...
I leave my life behind
For my peace of mind
Take my last goodbyes
For my peace of mind
I Leave my life behind
Agonize!
For my peace of mind
Traumatize!
Take my last goodbyes
Mesmerize!
For my peace of mind
I am euthanized!
I am agonized!
I am traumatized!
I am mesmerized!
Euthanized!

LEAD Inc. Hanover, Germany
Founded back in summer 2014 the band started focusing on instrumental songwriting with a heavy obsession for the strong contrast between sluggish sounding parts and a focus on ambience. As Naomi joined the band in August 2015, the band could complete the progressive elements in their music with her soul-influenced vocals, thus melding it to a homogeneous, but not trivial, sound experience. ... more
