The melody suddenly ends
As motion seems to lie
With my remains
Stars are aligned, reflecting as one
On the mirror close to my frame
Refracting on my side
The realm of all fate
Gone, yet still alive
Left for another day, another sight
Another face of life
The rays are colder behind
The light out there
Turned the blaze to white
And my night to a restful slumber
In this parallel dimension
I leave my painful hollow
Everything just flows
And I drift in rapture
So I reach my own demise
In this maze of emotions
What we call Divine
So I reach my own demise
In this maze of emotions
What we call Mind

As motion seems to lie

Stars are aligned, reflecting as one

Refracting on my side
The realm of all fate
Gone, yet still alive
Left for another day, another sight
Another face of life

The light out there
Turned the blaze to white
And my night to a restful slumber
In this parallel dimension

The lyrics to Enshine's song Refraction describe a sense of finality and peaceful acceptance of death. The singer reflects on their own mortality, acknowledging the inevitability of death and the physical decay that accompanies it. The image of dust on their feet and rust on their name illustrate the impermanence of human life, and the sudden end of the melody represents the fleeting nature of existence. Despite the finality of death, the singer finds comfort in the idea that their remains will be aligned with the stars, reflecting the unity of the universe.
The second stanza describes the transition from life to death, as the "rays are colder behind" and the light fades into a "restful slumber." The singer seems to accept this transition, finding a sense of peace in what they describe as a "parallel dimension." This parallel dimension is described as a place where everything just flows, and the singer is able to drift in rapture. The final stanza emphasizes the mystery and wonder of death, as the singer reaches their own demise in a "maze of emotions" that they describe as both divine and of the mind.

Slumber is not my favourite band, but Fallout is by far the best album ever created, imho. I asked for a second one, they disbanded and formed Atoma which is just not the same. But THIS is what I've been waiting for!
@danielrossi600
Yes either slumber or rapture futile
