The next five years Emerald Mind continued working on new songs and trying to record a quality demo. In those days it was not an easy task, because Vladivostok was too far away from any metal music industry. Finally, in november 2009, band released their first album “Tales Of Soveena” and moved to St. Petersburg to discover new horizons.
The northern capital met the musicians with the cold wind and lots of challenges. So even the very existence of the band was under question. In 2011 Alexey and Svetlana decided to move on and start writing new material for the second album. So at this moment this work almost done and we can’t wait to share with you our hopes, dreams, experience and feelings that we put in our music!
Theater
Emerald Mind Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I am waiting for the time
When mystery begins
And words become a rhyme
Face in mirror, wearing mask
Smell of old perfume and dust
Every night is new
Dive in fiction for two hours:
What is really true?
Acting like it's one last time
Inspiration from within:
So divine!
Tonight our song will come in your home
No one on the Earth will not be alone
Till the dawn! Till the dawn!
Surrounded by borders of atmosphere
We'd built up the theater and act here
Till the dawn! Till the dawn!
Distant sounds of an orchestra
Excite my mind
From the depth of my memory
Strange visions come to light
Acting like it's one last time
Inspiration from within
So divine!
Tonight our song will come in your home
No one on the Earth will not be alone
Till the dawn! Till the dawn!
Surrounded by borders of atmosphere
We'd built up the theater and act here
Till the dawn! Till the dawn!
The certain falls but we keep playing our lives
