about

As soon as we wrote this song we knew we had something good going for us. This was the first song that we were excited to play live.

Initially the song as written by myself (Kp) on an acoustic guitar. The song featured a lot of interesting industrial elements that were largely stripped away when adapting it to a live band setting. The preliminary lyrics of the first verse were written by myself as a placeholder that ended up sticking. Shane Seppala called me up in the middle of the night with an idea for a chorus, and the very next day we wrote the rest of the lyrics. This was our first collaborative endeavor, and would set the lyrical direction for the album to follow.

lyrics

Don’t take my word, just come and see it 
The falling embers, the change of seasons 
Your fragile words, fall into spaces 
Your sacred ground, your devastation
 
Another constellation
 across the galaxy
 to believe what can’t be seen 
is the only thing I need 
Another Destination 
So far in infancy
 Just waiting for the silence 
We wait and see 

To the path we keep on walking 
upon the road we know
 to the path of desolation 
trample on this hollow road 

To the path we keep adhering 
upon the road we know 
and now the dust is clearing
 with nowhere left to go 

 Another constellation 
across the galaxy 
to believe what can’t be seen
 is the only thing I need 
Another Destination
 So far in infancy 
Just waiting for the silence 
We wait and see
