lyrics
This sanctuary here
A momentary sunlight
And when it`ll disappear,
I`ll still be much disordered.
Tossing stones again into a large polluted lake,
Racket in the distance in an endless, stable loudness.
Again the boredom hits me like a ton of bricks,
Reminds me I was once a part of that endless, stable, distant mess.
Every once in a while
The voices from the lake they sing to me:
“Leave it a day, we`ll leave you too”
The grudge torments relentlessly, it leaves you when you’re gone.
Hold it tight!
Escaping, running barefoot deep into the forest
Excitement, the tears are flowing down my ankles.
Being ambushed, kidnapped, pounded, fractured, shattered, swept up by desire.
This lakeside, the sanctuary where I'm planted, where I’m stranded.
And still, beyond range an accelerating swarm, hollow nothingness needle in a haystack.
Discarded from an out flowing ocean,
Sinking down in the lake while the reeling commotion slowly breaks up.
Again the boredom,
Reminds me I was once a part of that endless, stable, distant mess.
Every once in a while
The voices from the lake they sing to me:
“Leave it a day, we`ll leave you too”
The grudge torments relentlessly, it leaves you when you’re gone.
Hold it tight!
Down and out, back empty handed from the lake
Looking down at my shape I wish I could emerge after I shed my skin.
I`ll grab a plate, stick the fork in my old crust and let it crumble in my mouth.
Once I had a friend, who came around and reached her hand but it sure wasn`t her fault that I have lost a screw
And then….
(Oh, the rage!) At night in a fit of rage
(Wreckage and emptiness!) I’ve wrecked her brains out
(Oh please no!) and still I miss her.
(I just want somebody to hold!)
The grudge torments relentlessly,
And the voice goes on and on:
“Leave it a day, we`ll leave you too”
The band, featuring vocalist Daniël de Jongh (Textures and ex-CILICE), guitarist Joe Tal (Textures), bassist Robin Zielhorst

Every single member of this band is incredibly skilled in their own right, but I love how much they accentuate each other's talents into these masterful tracks. The whole album is excellent. I'm so happy they were finally able to come to my home state and perform.
Incredible band, can't wait to listen to what comes next. quantumquail
Abstract Illusion achieve to create an imaginary landscape that magnets to our metallic soul. An extraordinary rounded album that will continue spinning for a long period. josich
