Attreides The whole album is a soild 11/10 - except for Not All That Glitters and Immortal. These are 12/10 at least. Just that good.

jdrogers7 Fantastic album, just like all of Shadowrunner's stuff. It hangs together better than most concept albums, and it's beautiful to boot. Love it! Favorite track: You (feat Trenton).

1.
Look around at this world on fire At the pain, born from our desire I can’t explain, but you know it’s true The look in your eyes is when I knew Endless dark and there’s nothing I can do No way out, no way to break through I have never been enough for this world I don’t wanna be here anymore in this place on my own cut me down to the bone. Am I the only one, am I the only one watching me drown
2.
Never need to break out through the prison walls that we built for ourselves In a perfect world where)we are safe and sound in our empty shells I can’t feel you in these skies of steel tearing into my mind I want to rip it down everything to the ground I’m the man on fire wearing the crown I dream alone every night in my room in the sky/in the stars searching for the answer Demons ripping, tearing, pulling, pushing me out of control We can live here forever in a cage at the cost of a soul

5.
It’s a brave new world But it’s nothing new to me Hurry up, we’re going nowhere fast Every moment in time With every breath it’s a hill that we climb That crumbles down no matter how hard we try Every time we meet we get a little bit older The distance between us, it gets a little bit colder We’re running running running out of time But I’m not afraid I’ve got the strength of the wind There’s no turning back and I’ll be there right up to the end I’m doing fine without my heart It was already broken before the start There’s nothing left of me to love I’m doing fine without my soul and It took every ounce of my self control but Now I’m free I’m free Yeah I’m doing fine

The end is near and there’s no need to fear because I’m right beside you For once in our lives, we don’t have to hide from the ones we were, broken under the sky I know that you can feel it too The calling of the shadow Tonight we fade into the dark And put the end before the start I’ll breathe you to the end if you want me to Tonight it burns inside your heart The endless shadow We are the ruin and the dust Tonight the world belongs to us
8.
Doesn’t matter if there’s nothing at the end of everything When the fire comes and takes away every reason left to sing. When every last breath and shimmer escape the hollow of your heart We’ll still be here to rebuild it from the start When the windows break and the house is shaking in the middle of the storm When the sky is gone and there is no dawn, how can you carry on? If the pain evaporates the very fabric of your soul We’ll still be here to make each other whole I can feel the breath of the wind through the fire and the smoke Burned and bleeding lifting up and trying not to choke Can’t you see, all you need is me if you’re going to break through All you need is me And all I need is you

about

Ocean of Time is the story of two lost souls unable to find equilibrium with modern society while living in a misanthropic metropolis. They feel out of place in a world on the edge of collapse… a world fueled by apathy and greed.

One day, they happen upon an announcement in the city square: the megaconglomerate giant Cryogenesys Corp is seeking “Temporal Adventurer” candidates to undergo cryogenic hibernation that will awaken them 1000 years in the future in exchange for meeting all of their needs and wants upon their awakening in the year 3023.

After a period of excited grappling with this prospect, the pair decide that the potential rewards of this adventure far outweigh their miserable life in the modern age; that Cryogenesys could potentially provide answers to their unanswerable existential questions.

They decide to undergo the process and apply…

893 years in the future. The year 2916.

The pair awake due to catastrophic mechanical failure in their cryosleeves. To their horror, they are the only two souls that have survived the hibernation procedure.

Everything is gone. Everyone is gone. Nothing of humanity’s mark on the world is left, save for the ruins of civilization which have been reclaimed by nature. As far as they can surmise, there is no evidence that remains for what could have caused the collapse.

Some time later… after shambling together a shelter near the shoreline and establishing that there are still accessible flora and fauna, as well as fresh water from a nearby tributary, the pair realize that they have a decision to make…

Do they attempt to Rebirth a small human society in this new world and give their species a second chance?

Or do they determine that the world humanity created in the past was a disaster filled with greed and pain? Should the human race be allowed to fade into Oblivion?

With Ocean of Time, the choice is yours.

Which path will you choose for humanity?
Rebirth? Or Oblivion?
