After the album release, Gillespie also left the band, and band continued to play as a trio. At the same time, Coyot starts to take active role as a trombone player as well, and the band started musical exploration of other genres (reggae, dub, drum & bass) making its own specific mixture of styles, and creating their own unique sound which many people liked immediately.

Sister
Eyesburn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Who is next
To get that
Glory fast
We are born
Once to die
With no given
Chance to try
I see through
Beheaded faith
The other side
Times without hate
New children
Kill the fears
Sorrow mother
Deliver no tears
Sister love clear our name
Make us feel that this dreams are real
Like blue wide sea-like what we wanna be?
Sister love dreams for you and me
once again she pulled me under
under her magic under her spell
she wants to make my life more harder
she wants to turn my life in hell
The song "Sister" by Eyesburn is a reflective piece about the fleeting nature of life and the search for meaning in the face of the inevitable end. The lyrics question who will be the next to achieve glory, but also reflect on the fact that life is brief and we are only given one chance to make something of it. The singer sees through "beheaded faith," likely referencing the idea of faith being cut off or destroyed, and sees hope and love on the other side. The "new children" kill fear, and the sorrowful mother does not cry. The chorus calls out to "Sister love" to clear their name, make them feel that their dreams are real, and be like the endless, wide blue sea.
The final verse sees the singer being pulled under the spell of "Sister" once again. She seems to want to make their life harder, even going so far as to want to turn it into hell. This could be interpreted as a struggle with addiction or other harmful habits, where the temptation is always there to dive back in and sabotage one's progress.
