Ash 04:15
The flame Of life Burns away Stars Your smile Alone again You give your hand For the promise of a friend Your life starts to end No more need to pretend
2.
Here on my own We've reached the end I long in the dark Your warmth, my friend The hand reaches out For my love to send Here in my bed Dream of you again

Essence 07:43
Entrapped, abyss Loathing and weakness Only savior, the blade Releases essence Of life When the light Starts to fade I know, I am at peace

about

Light fades, meaning is seemingly lost, and hands desperately grasp at the cold air of nothingness. But a warmth in the dark begins to melt away the icy touch of loss, memories of love and joy wisp around with purposeful glide, phantasms breaking the thick fog to remind you that, despite your lack of vision, there is always divinity at the end of the abyss. This is the Essence, a new, more somber, more focused direction of grief from Anomie, and a hopeful reminder that when all seems lost, the fragile flame of love still flickers somewhere in the dark.
