Æmber from ALEA by Built-in Obsolescence

Fire!
Burn down the constraints
The flames shall rise
Dissolve our self regrets
Purge out what’s gone

Tide!
Bring back their carcasses
Then let them rest
Their trip was not in vain

Me, curled up falling
Smoky taste on the tongue
Shrouded by ashes
This feeling’s dark
Charming, confusing

Leave, now!

Wind, steady blow
Unveil where to go

The wind steadily blows
Unveils where to go
The sails and ropes are set
The ocean’s calling

Never gotten set
Intangibleness makes me fear
The water

I’ve only aimed
My tired gaze to the horizon, here

The moon is turned off tonight
Embrace the stars

(Those stars enclosed in amber
Will guide you through the dark
This legacy a curse
Humanity pursued)

It’s time to say farewell
The time is up crushing

I’ve never looked away
While everything ‘round me
Was engulfed in flames

A lifetime spent building
You know what is the best thing?
Is to watch it burn

I never…

I never meant to leave you
But now I can stay away
I never meant to hurt you
But I just had to
I just had to
