//One hand latched on the other/ we stood against the tide/ our faith remained untethered/ wherein’s decline/ crone lies in denial/ the word held insincere/ rupture, shells and gallows end/ what’s failing to conceal/ a vow to swore and perish/ the split had since began/ we plant the seed of sorrows/ beyond the stars/
Born in silence/ born, refusing dread/
Father, Earth, Carrion/
Seethe your voice through me/
Mother, Dirge, Novelty/
Sink your soul in me/
Spirit, Dream, Start again/
Sing beyond eclipse|

//The final act is here, the ashes of our day/ it’s synchronized, it’s in display/ bewildered weariness- I’ve put to rest in vain/ for what it's worth, in bitterness abstractions take their course/
And in our last embrace, tomorrows passed away/
Before our time remains in chains/
I‘ve seen too strong to mitigate/ in spite of someone new/ forlorn and drowning by the shore/ when acquiesce was due/ it’s an ideal for life to breathe in someone else’s dream/ I’m tearing down the walls again/ though we could never see/
Your colours ease the pain/ before you’re drifting back/ austere and contradictive/ through this masquerade/ we were made the same as one/ inside a room inside my head
await for serpent’s son/
And via our last embrace, tomorrows passed away/
Regardless of our flaws we disengaged and failed/
I sensed her fading pulse, whispered in her ear/
And since the curtains dropped the frown returns, she sleeps engulfed in tears/
In this life we’ll break and shatter/ no delusions, no more lies/ I’ve come to terms- it doesn’t matter/ what once said is now left undone/ dissimulated, saturated I lie awake as if I ‘m stunned/ incinerated by your order/ I’m lashing out now, in decline/
I‘d caress if time just stood still/ a second chance for absent dreams/ if love is just where power’s mundane/ I’d hope we could anticipate/ in retrospective, in denial/ you misconceived while you abstained/ what was yours they all defiled/ stranded from us, in arrears|

Transgressions

//Turn away/ you turned away so blissfully/ I‘ll turn away, as processions beckon near/ lie awake/ we lied to sway against the odds/ I’ll lie and wait, hereon for unscathed romance/
Dormant sparkles filled our eyes, opaque the blossom’s frame/
Pride falters through between regression and despair/
Voicing within mind’s contortion/
Here the powerless remain/
You turn in another with a vivid sigh/ poise and recover/ poise and recover/ you ran to uncover from a sacred sky/ you‘ll turn to another/ poise and recover/
Shrines, impartial sympathy, tied to the horrors’ vail/
One step to close in on transgressions- you don’t care/
Notions, aging saints and tainted motions/
Frowned upon- it's the same path every day/
You turn in another with a vivid sigh/ poise and recover/ poise and recover/ you run to uncover from a sacred sky/ you‘ll turn into another, poise and recover/ you failed to discover undisclosed demise/ poise and recover/ innocent or other/ you look right untethered for our parts aligned/ poise and recover/ poise and recover|

It Will Come To You LP
by ACTORS
supported by 6 fans who also own “Alabastrine EP”
It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago.
