(lyrics by e. san vocals by e. torrini)
ghosts of progress
haunt me daily
meaning vanishes
words they fail me
you have left me
lost in your mind
dive in, who knows
what you might find
somewhere someone
feels this way too
sometimes it’s easier
just to stay blue
someday somehow you’ll land
but for now understand
you’ll be adrift until then
life in loop mode
focus reframe
need to crack it
clarity regained
maybe it’s too much
for us to see now
can't wait until when
what we’ve lost is refound
somewhere someone
feels this way too
sometimes it’s easier
just to stay blue
and I’ll wait right here
while your clouds clear
but I’ll be…
adrift until then

(lyrics and vocals by e. torrini)
dusted off, packed and done
close to home
all I’ve known
my father whistling
doubt keeps whispering
when we lay there side by side
watching stars shine bright
like keyholes in the sky
I think of all you said
you rustle up the stardust in my head
space rolls out its carpet
this is how it started
all those years
have led to this
no more whispering
no more whispering

(lyrics by e. san, vocals by e. torrini)
a wounded sky
a swirl of smoke
beneath the cold
I reawoke
I thought I felt
you’d never left
but in my heart’s
an emptiness
the hours crawl
we’ll meet again
defeat another day til then
the slowest clock
as vinyl plays
and how you spoke
those final days
I’m missing you
my heart retreats
I found the cold
beneath the heat
can’t tell if I
will weather this
for me, you’ll be
forever missed
I’m missing you
my heart retreats
I found the cold
beneath the heat
can’t tell if I
will weather this
for me,
you will be
forever missed

(lyrics by e. san, vocals by e. torrini)
one day
you’ll know
why I had to go
flew through the fear
until I disappeared
sped through the lights
into the dark
won’t stop til I hit my mark
escaped your fool’s paradise
evaporate to dust and ice
no plan
no map
at this rate
we’ll all collapse

(lyrics by e. san, vocals by e. torrini)
countless ellipses
your absence eclipses
all the light from my sight
it’s now 2 years
and one thing remains clear
it’s the darkest night
red shift, old light
I’ll be your satellite
transmission’s distorted
I’m lost in your orbit
floating broadcasts
reflections so vast
the radio’s broken
this winter won’t last
red shift, old light
I’ll be your satellite
transmission’s distorted
I’m lost in your orbit
trying to get back on the ground
just not the same without you around
pinwheels, spirals
eighty-five thousand miles
I’ll see you again
but who knows when
one thing is for certain
I’ll keep falling back towards you

(lyrics by e. san, vocals by e. torrini)
don’t recognize myself today
talk in circles in the greyest grey
and all the thoughts live in a maze
up here, where I belong
I trundle cross the harsh terrain
the darkest thoughts you’ll entertain
a force that I cannot sustain
I’m here, but something’s wrong
the darkest day
the longest night
I should evolve but still I fight
on the run
in a state of flight
I’m calming down
my intent is to be free
what keeps me warm are memories
now they’re closing in on me
things should have changed by now
I’ll be younger in 50 years
trying to find what panic fears
Phobos and Deimos interfered
and change was everything
when you looked up
the stars all fell
it was hard for me to tell
it’s another day on Mars as well
this quiet is deafening
the darkest day
the longest night
I should evolve but still I fight
on the run
in a state of flight
I’m calming down
my intent was to be free
what keeps me warm are memories
now they’re closing in on me
things should have changed by now
I felt myself disintegrate
figured it out but much too late
took all that I loved that day
and trashed the rest of it
I happily detached the past
but equilibrium won’t last
in a capsule of poison gas
this solitude is desolate
the darkest day
the longest night
I should evolve but still I fight
on the run
in a state of flight
I’m calming down
my intent was to be free
what keeps me warm are memories
now they’re closing in on me
things should have changed by now

(lyrics and vocals by e. torrini)
in a dream I am carried
by sun rays through the dark
always the fool you hand me your heart
life is a flicker of light on a screen
humble as a hope I bow to thee
pale blue, pale blue
it’s over too soon
pale blue, pale blue
