Stasis
Soul Extract Lyrics

The link is broken
There's a disconnect in the chain of events.

Amygdala frozen
The part of the brain responsible for processing emotion is inactive.

Awaking disease
An illness that's been lying dormant is coming to the surface.

Unable to wake from the silence of empty frequencies
The lack of meaningful connections is making it hard to break out of despondency.

Hard lines are empty
Insincere communication is failing to fill the void.

DMT reserves are released
A hallucinogen is being produced in an effort to escape from reality.

Traces of affinity still lingering
There are remnants of a connection that was once strong.

Gravity is turning
The situation is getting worse with no sign of improvement.

Letting go of frailty
Embracing a tougher mindset in order to survive.

From the depths of existence
From the core of being alive.

Reaching escape velocity
Accelerating fast enough to break free from current circumstances.

I'll run the other way
Choosing a different path than the one already taken.

Straight into the blackness
Beating a hasty retreat without a clear destination.

Till I'm lost and I'm damaged
Going so far that it becomes impossible to recover fully afterwards.

Archiving yesterday
Memorializing past events to never forget them.

Escaping the purity underneath
Leaving behind something that was considered sacred or pure.

Till I'm hallow and empty
Continuing to run to the point of becoming completely devoid of emotion.

Reaching stasis
Coming to a halt in a state of inactivity or dormancy.

The scars are open
Past wounds have reopened, causing pain and distress.

Digital wounds from a nightmare revealed
Technology is creating new sources of pain and trauma.

Reality broken
The way things are is fundamentally flawed or unfixable.

No signals left to feel
The ability to sense or respond to outside stimuli is gone.

And the tides are turning
A major shift in the direction of change is happening.

All the walls are crumbling
Structures of protection and security are falling apart.

And the fires are burning
A disastrous event is taking place.

To find a way back
Attempting to return to a different state of being.

From a forest black
From a place of darkness and unknown danger.

Lighting the pathway
Illuminating the way to a new path.

Blinding inside there's no escaping
The outcome is inevitable and can't be avoided.

I'll run the other way
Continuing to move in a different direction from the current path.

Reaching stasis
Maintaining an unchanging state of being.
