Infinite Conclusions
04:26

A single path divisible by infinity
Routes intertwine to meet at any given time
Endless are the choices which lay before me now
Is this truly free will?
The scroll I slowly spread
Revealing a lonely canvas
Nothing has been written and nothing ever will
In your reach
The temptation of this risk
Weakness of the flesh and bones
I must face this on my own
Constricting what life I do possess
Someone save me now
In your reach
An outcome of your choices
Weakness, this fault I must atone
I must face this on my own
Constricting what life I do possess
Someone save me now
Such a fragile time I must decide
My body moves left, then right
I don’t know which to choose
My body moves left, then right
Left and right

A Distant Shore
04:35
|
|
||
|
These dark waves take me out to sea
Far beyond the isles of sanity
Longing for a route to truth
If it takes a lifetime
Unable to find peace, the feeling to be whole
Something I lost so long ago
Into darkness all alone
Many days of staring into the dimmest sky
Waiting for an answer brighter than the sun
Will there ever be relief?
And the tempest rages on
Where the wind must sing it’s song

Within Earth
04:45

|

|
The distance between you and I has been written, written in stone
Relentless scratching to escape this dark void
I close my eyes, I close my eyes
and pray for sleep, and pray for sleep
A restless night to be, night to be
Within this void, I pray for sleep
Dreams to come below the sun
Becoming one within the Earth
Within The Earth
I realized my fate
Folded hands and eyes agape
Accepting this transformation
Transformation
Dreams to come below the sun
I’m giving something back to the earth after all
I close my eyes, I close my eyes
and pray for sleep, and pray for sleep
A restless night to be, night to be
Within this void, I pray for sleep
I close my eyes, I close my eyes
and pray for sleep, and pray for sleep

Soaring through this life
It’s one step close behind
Lingering presence of which I deny
This feeling...just ease your mind
I must hesitate
Immerse yourself
Let the feelings creep in
You will never understand until you’re forced to live
Until you’re forced to live
Waiting, waiting for the sun to rise
So let me feel the pain
Energy, wild, untamed
Immerse yourself
Let the feelings creep in
You will never understand until you’re forced to live

Breathe This Life
03:34
|
|

|
In full bloom anchored deep within this truth
Shielding all from harm who held tight to its roots
A canopy so vast and strong
You can only challenge time for so long
You can only challenge time so long
Breathe this life
Cease this day
Full of love
No more pain
It’s ok to let go
The elements come bearing down
I see you whither in your crown
The pain it brings me to see you fade away into the earth
To see you fade away
It’s ok to let go, we’re all here
I’ll find a way to carry on
I know that’s what you’d want from me
To carry on
Breathe this life
Cease this day
Full of love
No more pain

Reverence in this state
Floating free below the wake
Unaware which way the current flows
Silent and still
Slow refraction of the surface light
Reminding me of the perfect life
Am I here to discover or observe?
Questions that need no answer to feel fulfilled
Am I here to discover or observe?
Just be present and experience.
My impulses beg, they beg me to retract
But I must sit and face this vast ocean floor
Am I here to discover or observe?

Anima

To show compassion
To nurture that which is part of me
Anima
A voice of reason
This completes me
Your soothing voice
Reminds me I’m not alone
I’m not alone
Unlock the confines of my mind
Show them how, make me free
Make me free
You take me higher
Anima
A voice of reason
This completes me
Your soothing voice
Reminds me I’m not alone

We must end the suffering
Unrelenting waves
In this eternal wake
All odds decrease the further down you go
Submit to this cause and effect which has been for all time
Swim with all your might
Rise to the surface and know that you are not alone
Conserve your breath and let the currents flow
Reach out and connect hands; we’ll manage to stay afloat
You can’t do this alone, just let the current flow
Let the current flow

supported by 26 fans who also own “Immersion”
A unique conglomeration of progressive djent that just slightly edges towards alternative and dare I say pop. Remarkably catchy front to back VOLA’s sound is a breath of fresh air. Even my friends who don’t like metal like these guys. 9/10

One of the best modern prog metal groups out there... Even their freshmen years were absolutely fantastic... Great EP... One of the only bands I'm truly saddened by, knowing I don't have their music on vinyl... "hint, hint"

Very cool album, found out about it from a dashcam video on Reddit. Very varied styles, the prog metal stuff is similar to Tesseract. Two thumbs up.
