Aeon
Anavae Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There is nothing in this world
that doesn't take a step outside
the heart, as long as there are
two moons paired up in this sky.
If you look closely there are these
threads hanging up in the air.
You can see them if you try
Oh if you care to know.
If it's time will I know?
I'm always gone.
Have I found this chemical low?
So sick of it all.
I'm out of my mind.
When will they be coming for me?
When will I be abducted away?
When will they be coming for me?
When will I know?
Who to ask when it's all going
I'm falling out of my own mind.
If this isn't the real world
Then where should I look for life?
This head is no empty shell
No vacant house, there is flesh and bone.




With a harrow stubborn soul
and shadowed memories.

The diversity that you are able to display with your voice is probably what keeps me drawn in so strongly. This song like the others I can listen to the softness that you have in your voice, but at no cost to the range, and your ability to fluctuate the sound. You can find those independent qualities everywhere, but I enjoy that you are able to mix them so well in all of the music I've heard. I could point out things I love all day, but the truth is that there are never enough words to describe something that is one of a kind. We can only continue to enjoy them.
