Letters from Severance by Ophelia's Eye
About this track:
We scream into the void, hoping someone might still hear us. "Letters" is a fragile yet defiant attempt to leave a mark before we’re swallowed by oblivion.
This song mourns the loss of connection and identity in a collapsing world. A melancholic plea for meaning as the stars watch us fall.
A whisper in ink, written for the ones who may one day understand.

Lyrics:
I light the beacon once more
My eyes reflect the flames
But the light is lost
In the vastness of space
I ascend a tree
Hope to find signs from above
How can a drop in a pond
Carry meaning?
This world is pain
When one seeks the calm
I depart the spheres
That kept me whole
Each day, I awake
To a song so bleak
And it burns its scars into me
As we all will fall
I crave no more
Loss of self shakes me
To the core
I fear the void
Let me leave a trace and
Send my letters through time
Before they pull me under
The stars are staring me down
In this time of defeat
My shaking hands
Can’t let go of the quill
A splash of ink
Drowns the words in a sea
Who will remember
A sigh in the dark?
This world is pain
When one seeks the calm
I depart the spheres
That kept me whole
Each day, I awake
To a song so bleak
And it burns its scars into me
As we all will fall
I crave no more
Loss of self shakes me
To the core
I fear the void
Let me leave a trace and
Send my letters through time
Before they pull me under

Ophelia’s Eye from Switzerland fuse relentless heaviness with emotional depth. With our second album Severance, we take a bolder, more diverse and intense step than ever—musically and thematically. Razor-sharp riffs, relentless drums, and vocals shifting from raw aggression to clear melody reflect the darkest psyche, social injustice, and the disorientation of a world on fire.
