Poising in the howling vastness Currents emanating from a world that drowses in the deep Daunting are the vibrant echoes, fell the incidents of which soon there will be loads to reap Tarry, for thou are banished Cease to make resistance Abandon what was versant; the lie thou called existence Done away with all I've known, I have nothing to bemoan To the shallows, there's no other way for me The currents are winding around my arms A warmish turbulence is slowly becoming apparent Sensory misinformations waking untendes reflexes My tentacles secreting; the liquidities semitransparent Jittering, immobilized; an animated cenotaph abulicly conducted by the call of gloom A drone, then quiescence; an aperture into naught emitting storms of sable spume Screeching - mind's lavation I'm reaching my salvation Done away with all I've known, I have nothing to bemoan To the shallows, there's no other way for me Take me away from the silence Lurching unto darksome realms Suddenly, a dazzling light My orientation in doubt I lose my sense as kelp is looming, a louring forest in the midst of black The final leave of all emotions, a burden that is never coming back The lie of inherent morals, their memories cause my smirk Unburdened by their leave, I slowly drift into the murk Behold, the first vow: this is thy home now

One have I become with the new world There's no beginning, nor is there an end Only that the dwellers of this reef are not quite easy to befriend I am a waste of space, no longer will I try to hide My soul has never lived, a healthy body blank inside They told me to look at the bright side to feel what life can really bring I opened my eyes to the sun and did not see a bloody thing Abiogenesis Sprouted from lifeless pieces Abiogenesis No one made me Abdicable outcast, you are nothing like us Alienated from your hatching apparatus Fragile like an eggshell, your alarming status A jaundiced individual that has lost its focus Brittling inside, a cavernous scrag Residing on a perishing spine Inner disintegration of tendons Smithereens with fleshly frazzles entwined We are chasing nowt but death while hope is keeping us in thrall Make this world a better place and push that which is ready to fall Abiogenesis Sprouted from lifeless pieces Abiogenesis No one made me Aimlessly you're walking right into nothingness Battling the urge to bray, maledict achiness Leg it for destiny's more than invidious You are the offspring of all that is hideous I am the last one to quail, most mirthful on my own And if my words should flail, just leave me alone Odyshiny tyraa chyndøk

A light ray in the distance, minacious luminescence Insidious allurement by a resistless iridescence Should I withstand, or follow its command? I hear it calling my long-forgotten name Though I remember, it will never be the same again There is a light that floats in nothingness, emerging from a world above Surrounded by the gloomy realms with which we fell in love It may seem direful that everything is out of hand A way of life that forms like you could never understand A warming obscureness, exhaustively relentless The most relieving act of mine was to swim beyond the abyss Should you depart, or listen to your heart? You'll hear it yearning for this fulfilling naught As soon as you leave, return will be your only thought There is a light that floats in nothingness, emerging from a world above Surrounded by the gloomy realms with which we fell in love It may seem direful that everything is out of hand A way of life that forms like you could never understand

Voices of long-forgotten life, forever eternalized in crag A portrait of the dim and distant past was sculpted into petrified slag Hollow are the creatures paved before my eyes For many million years, they have been biding in disguise Peacefully congealed into their dreamless sleep Ere a million tons of rock beds have capped them in the deep But as the years required their immolations, the ocean's streams have carried owt away Unsheathed were the extinguished generations Nothing was untroubled by the tragedy when time consumed its prey Signs in the stone, reminders of the past But once the fossils begin to break, the memories won't last My mind is now afflicted by an antic, an eerie visage screaming in my head The will to bring them back's becoming frantic, but one will never manage to revive the dead Hollow are the creatures paved before my eyes For many million years, they have been biding in disguise Peacefully congealed into their dreamless sleep Ere a million tons of rock beds have capped them in the deep Signs in the stone, reminders of the past But once the fossils begin to break, the memories won't last A massgrave carved in stone Voices of long-forgotten life, forever eternalized in crag A portrait of the dim and distant past was sculpted into petrified slag But as the years required their immolations, the ocean's streams have carried owt away Unsheathed were the extinguished generations Nothing was untroubled by the tragedy when time consumed its prey

Caducity is fading away, for there is no witness of time in the dark Ageless is my domain, and obscure No one will ever be able to hear me No one will ever understand So I will just stay in the deep, below all hurry that prevails above Not pretending to comprehend my life Slowly floating along Gnaiih There's no mask left that I have to bear Gnaiih And in the shallows, I will sing my air Fair is the gloom, a giant world below the light Sorrow is impairment, impassiveness my sole delight And there is nothing that will remain Once I am vanished, these waters will be still the same Gnaiih There's no mask left that I have to bear Gnaiih And in the shallows, I will sing my air A lethargic monster is what you see, but the truth is stashed inside of me The I - the lie; a nocuous sting There is but one soul, and it includes everything Do not even try to understand me, just waste your time on searching for yourself Gnaiih There is no thing that would have kept me from fleeing far unto the darkest of waters A place where time is dead, and so is all that somewhere else matters Forget what you've been told, it all shall cease the moment you grasp that nothing will remain after you die And something else will come to life

Vast is the realm of missing day, enlightened its indwelling wights Reams of withdrawn beasts of prey, absconded from the clamant heights The vibrant shock waves from below can not be heard, yet sensed The indications of a region that needs to be cleansed Dwindling, the light Beginning of night Impending affright A ghastly delight Closure of the orifice; the link to all illusion Forswear all that is glorious and relish your elusion Apart from all that holds no truth, the inner voice begins to fade Let it die to see yourself be cleansed from all the tons it weighed There is no sense of time in waters of this clime Every single creature here is self-contained and undismayed Behold the meacocks trying to return to their familiar spheres Little did they know that in the depths it would become so fierce The grimace of naught's becoming clearer every time you peer But once it's fully present, all your dread will disappear Apart from all that holds no truth, the inner voice begins to fade Let it die to see yourself be cleansed from all the tons it weighed There is no sense of time in waters of this clime Every single creature here is self-contained and undismayed Dwindling, the light Beginning of night Impending affright A ghastly delight

Just a promise, or is it more? Still assembling all the parts I want for nothing, and you're all that I crave Alignment of two hearts Feel no restraint, allow yourself to fall Embracing you forever, this is my endeavour Unligjted is the past, but our souls are brightly gleaming The world remains absurd, and we are the only meaning It's dated to be fond, but I am a dissenter My door remains unlocked, in the hope that you will enter This is my vow I won't go away I won't go away You won't get rid of me I won't go away We'll never go astray Overwhelming sensuality Clasp my thought and tear them out Aside from instinct, I am no one now, and disspelled is every doubt Trust me thoroughly and live with me on love and air Run away with me, we don't have to go anywhere I won't go away I won't go away You won't get rid of me I won't go away We'll never go astray

about

Away from the Silence is a concept album about Gnaiih, a squidlike creature dwelling in a nameless ocean far away from our galaxy. After spending years of his life in a sleepy reef, Gnaiih eventually grew tired of the calcuability that had taken over his daily grind. One day, when the time was ripe, he worked up the courage to swim towards a feared abyss. A few moments of hesitation passed, until the desire to rid himself of the brawly silence hit its peak - and he allowed himself to sink. What for some dwellers may have seemed like Gnaiih‘s end, turned out to be the beginning of his lucid awakening. By entering a realm where all that he had learned could be confuted in a heartbeat, he realized that not only his, but really everybody‘s concept of knowledge, personality and even life itself was built on sand. There is nothing that can be considered „reality“, for we build our own world inside our heads every day. Your personality is merely an incoherent cluster of concepts.
