As I look into the void
I see my face
A distorted humanoid
Follow the trace
Reflections of me and shades of you
In all things surrounding us
The mirage of life is shining through
The light confounding us
I find myself inside the limelight
And every time I'm caught in stagefright
When it's shining too bright
Projecting images, our visages on all
And no religion, and no prescription
Can cure my vision of this grand design
These wayward angels, defy description
Here in this pantomime
I see reflections in the moonlight
These lonely nights, yet all so star-bright
And they're not quite right
And just like prisoners in the searchlight
We run like fire beyond the midnight
And we're burning too bright

Wherever we go
The path lies laid out
Crossing a million galaxies into the void
Through space and time
A cosmic redoubt
Until the stars and constellations are destroyed
Mind and matter, aeons come and go
Piping satyrs, time's an arrow
Time and tide, maelstrom in the night
The universe at speed of light
We're lost in the dark
Children of men
We are star-crossed souls in streams of time
Mind and matter, aeons come and go
Piping satyrs, time's an arrow
Time and tide, maelstrom in the night
The universe at speed of light
Pierce through the veil
Write your own tale

Feel time
Feel mind
Feel time
Peering through the looking glass
I see countless moments pass
Feet stuck in a damp morass
I cannot forget the hours past
Do we all?
Do we all fall?
Into the void where all creation meets the end
We're part of creation, we are the damnation
How can we face this anarchy?
A world of confusion, a fleeting illusion
How can we live another
Days go by as we unwind
I pretend to see you, yet am blind
to realise
Watching as the distance grows
Souls once near, no longer close
Losing ground as weakness shows
Numbness to both highs and lows
We're part of creation, we are the damnation
How can we face this anarchy?
A world of confusion, a fleeting illusion
How can we live another
Days go by as we unwind
I pretend to see you, yet am blind
to realise
Waters rise 'neath darkened skies
I pretend to love you, but it's lies
Feeling you close tonight
Everything grows, everything dies
Mother, father, lover
Sister, brother

Vortex

Processing visions of the world around us
And all these images and words confound us
Amidst the chaos we are twisting, turning
And all around us the maelstorm's churning
Going down the rabbit hole
Turn around, you vagrant soul
Lose it all in midnight's reach
Heed the warning that I teach
Down
Down, falling all the way
Seeing beyond time
Hearing the bell chime
Caught in the vortex
Burning higher on the pyre
Charring the cortex
In the fire, rewire
Caught in the vortex we scream
With all the colours running into one now
And all the borders between worlds are gone now
And still the flames are burning higher, higher
And so we're lost inside the fire
Seeing beyond time
Hearing the bell chime
So long
Down – falling down
All the way – to the ground

Forming from within
Traits of personality
Where the Self begins
From plurality
Garden of the mind
Triad of the soul
All the links combined
The parts become the whole
And from the core there's the circle of life spinning round
Connect the dots and then see the full image unbound
When from the fractions of all the true king is thus crowned
See it rising up and
Search a lifetime
Seek the pattern
To the crossroads
Of mind and matter
Shapes form my life
Shapes deep inside
Drawing the tale of my long strife
Of my strife
Divine
Geometry of soul
I draw the line
Living takes its toll
A new mandala
I draw for me
A new Kabbalah to set me free
Search a lifetime
Seek the pattern
To the crossroads
Of mind and matter
Solve the riddle
Find the door
To the middle
To the core
Search a lifetime
Seek the pattern
To the crossroads
Of mind and matter
Self inventor
Long for more
For the center
Of the core

And every time I close my eyes
I see distant waters reflecting
A sea of stars in stygian skies
Salvation sought and subjugation found
Gazing into the chaotic void
Like a needle through the choroid
Vagrant hearts
Forever
Torment and tempest
Wandering souls in the well of night
Chaos churns inside
Herald of the blight
And from the deep, it calls to me
To balance on the edge
Yet on the verge I hesitate
And step off the ledge
Gazing into the chaotic void
Like a needle through the choroid
Sailing towards the morning
Lost in time and tide
As I slide
Gazing into the ocean
The ocean gazes into me
And all is forgiven
In the rising tide
The rising tide...

Ashes Fall

Born from the dream of all dreams
Coming apart at the seams
They are the warriors, archetypes of our kind
They are eternal, drawn from the embers of fires of the mind
Searching for truth,
The errings of youth
Guiding us throughout the ages
Fragments of souls
Subconscious controls
In the volumes of life write new pages and scrolls
Forged from the mind that we share
Traces of history, that all must see
Alpha, Omega, pathways of the stars
End and beginning, puppets on a string
Why must we walk on the paths at our feet?
How are we born where death and life meet?
When is our life truly our own?
When are we „we“, from muscle to bone?
Mama was formed from a thousand souls
Heroes and crones, and wise men all
Seeds are planted, fires smothered,
As the ashes fall
From burning flames a new world rises
Archetypes of subconscious dream
Forming frames, all shapes and sizes
In the morning's gleam
Mama was formed from a thousand souls
Heroes and crones, and wise men all
Seeds are planted, fires smothered,
As the ashes fall
From burning flames a new world rises
Archetypes of subconscious dream
Forming frames, all shapes and sizes
In the morning's gleam

Nice, extremely catchy symphonic metal album with very good rhythm-work, beautiful singing and well-thought-out orchestral and choir pieces to accompany it. Definitely worth to give a listen.

The End Of An Era
by Never Obey Again
supported by 4 fans who also own “Vortex”
NEVER OBEY AGAIN is one of the most exciting newcomers in the field of Lacuna Coil, Evanescence or other modern female fronted metal bands. Actually, there is nothing original in "The End of an Era", but with such a great, passionate singer and a talent for catchy songwriting, well balanced between heaviness and emotional parts, that's absolutely fine. Even the "Zombie" cover is well performed, so if you like the mentioned style or references, this debut is simply a must.
