help_me I really appreciate this album, it's helped me reflect on myself and my relationship with others. I really like shower thoughts, the beginning hits me every time. The entire album kinda conveyed a sense of loneliness and the feeling of just being lost emotionally. (Or at least I feel that way). If it wasn't for this album I would probably be in a way darker place. I would really recommend giving this album a listen in your free time. Favorite track: Shower thoughts.

Desolation 04:14
a boy in white collar shirt is walking through the campus hating every single one of other students' faces everyone with beer in hand and no plans for the future smoke some pot and buy new clothes to get the look that suit you he was talking with another boy all throughout the summer now that they both are here they'll finally meet each other sit in a cosy bar and get two glasses of lambic he lost control over his life and now he starts to panic they ended up in boy's friend's house with bottle of cider to watch a movie, get a pizza, talk until the sunrise but the host soon turned out to be friendlier than expected and the boy soon left leaving him there

White Hide 06:17
I don't want to spend my days Trying to escape from you For three years we were best friends But it's the time to say goodbye Walk around the misty park Headphones on my head And from the deep blue sky Golden sun is pouring down And so I have no one here And no one to come back to As we'll grow to hate each other Rain erodes the dreams we live It's the last time we will talk I won't call you anymore No more evenings spend together No more stories to tell Walk around the misty park Voices in my ears Mingles softly with the leaves Green under the golden sea Walk around the misty park Hands curled into fists As we'll grow to hate each other Rain erodes the dreams we live

It's just another day My roommates drove away To spend a weekend with their friends But I'd be alone anyway It's just a usual day Everyone I love is so far away Hot water running down my back How long until I will snap All day long you won't leave me alone Your smell stays with me everywhere I go Your eyes shine like stars They are black like coal Even though we've parted I still hear your moans I still can smell you on my hands And I can't wash it off With no amount of soap I'll erase my guilt

Twin beds 08:59
On my way to my hometown To visit parents and old friends Riding towards the dawn Through the grey emptiness Revisiting old songs Memories on shuffle My head is full of people I'm alone in the bus And I wish I had you here Softly snuggled into me Riding towards the dawn We would never be alone again I'm drowned in time Summer days, shattered dreams concealed pain and cloudless sky it's futile; there's no point anymore if i can't be with you then why care at all?

Black Scale 06:28
Oh my love is slowly dying Every day you need me less What am I to do When I myself am a mess Oh lord give me strength For there's none left in me I forgot how to feel What can I do, my dear To start loving you again It's a cold cold night we're sleeping through Winter lasting since we finished schools So many things wen have gone wrong But you know much more than you show And I've never heard your thoughts And you never let me close But I will never leave you And you will always stay with me What can I do, my dear To start loving you again

he got into the nearest vehicle and sat without a word the other seat was already occupied aterile and dry air blew over his snout He finally dared to look at Keo. He did not mind that his companion was silent. His very presence was enough for him. they rode forward, through the streets of the city the sharp spires of skyscrapers gleamed in the harsh light of the setting sun... He unbuckled his seat belt and settled himself comfortably, resting his head against his silent companion. Finally, he felt calm. the road stretched before them to the horizon and further all the way to the stars

about

Desolation Saga is a story of spiralling down into abyss, and the slow and arduous way back upwards. Written as a way to deal with unclosed past, it details a few years in life of its author through direct scenes and thoughts, striving for sincerity, compassion, redemption and forgiveness. Pulling the lyrics from journal pages and old poems, each of the tracks is a specific memory, together telling a story about loneliness and detachment of a queer teenager turning adult.

Released on 9.10.2020 by Opus Elefantum.
