Neverday 06:03
All hopes are shattered on the floor I voluntarily close the open door of my own cage Oh, I have gone astray My aching mind is lost in yesterday Don't look back, bridges burn There's no return Let a new day begin Devour my fear What is left of confidence? Nobody else can see the walls you face All I could ever find in life I sacrifice tonight Don't look back, bridges burn There's no return Let a new day begin Devour my fear You're running, hiding Lost and somber Faltering, falling Is this what you want? I am losing the game Don't you see? I'm forlorn In the heart of the night Specters are haunting my mind Lead me through the dark and show me How to break The prison of my doubts where every Dream is fake Give me strength; I will strive For every treasure of this life
2.
Inside of you a million dying stars, Shatters of your soul Inside of me a thousand broken lives Bounded by one sorrow Memory may fade, but the promise will stay I'm in love with my agony and this agony has your name I cannot escape the feeling inside that I will never fight a subtle sadness in your eyes And no one knows that void has swallowed us That we don't belong in this world Don't be afraid, we are one Wherever you go, I'll follow Please, let me rest now, for my spirit is weak; In hours of despair remember - My shadow's always near Now you are gone And the secret's revealed You were hiding behind the mask But you've never learned to live I couldn't escape that feeling inside and I never fought a subtle sadness in your eyes

Soulglass 08:00
Sing the swan song of honour I'll stay no one in my sweet misery And you will not ever feel the sorrow As standing at my grave with the smile of a deceiver Once I felt so much love of yours And once you left at nightfall Now remember the fragile trustful soul That lived for you Don't be so shy, Don't close your eyes Watch me enfeebled dying in your arms It's time for you to drink the wine From a bleeding soulglass Hear the music of winds Their dirge for me will last forever Feel the pain I have borne through all these years As a ghost from the past I will haunt you, my dear Why don't you leave me? Why? I'm not the one to bless you On your way to depth Cursed and forsaken soul In your own hell
4.
I watch the passing years Summer dew and autumn clouds Still restless heart can't share that peace The noble giants rise aside Their ancient wisdom joins the skies But when I close the eyes I rush towards the past Where days were always cold... Should I stay there forever? My spring is sleeping inside of The frozen gardens of my bitter memory Oh, I wish the time could heal The lifelong agony I see a perfect world Of silent harmony But I'm a bird that's scared to fly The roots of fear have grown so deep This is the curse I have to keep I still remember all The place without the roads With no one by my side... Should I stay there forever?
5.
One fatal shot changed everything It seems to be a morbid dream Now the emptiness is to become My new reality And in the world that fell apart Nothing will be the same Through utter dark I have to run to find myself For so long they have tried to fix What's broken inside me I'm on my knees, I'm on the ground This hopeless struggle's all I've got It's only real in my dreams The world they took away from me I fight to break this curse But some wars can't be won Lost in a shattered universe That man is now gone How to collect scattered pieces of life when they all slip away? Only beyond the great divide my tragedy will end
6.
Night falls and they come to me Ghosts from the days I won't forget I can hear them crawling near Upon my walls, upon my bed Faces and names Rise from the haze Turn every breath to shame Darkness conceals the marks on your skin But the pain will not go away Flashback! The horror's rising again For years it's stayed inside Why can't I run away from that hell? Why does it always drag me back? Cursing the life you walk through the fire breathing the blood and fear Child of the war, Your wounded soul will never heal Rescue me! Flashback! I feel the touch of death It has become a part of me I am nothing but a prisoner in the narrow cage of memories of a broken man
7.
Come to me once in my sleep And free me from the never-ending silent scream Everywhere, I see you everywhere Now that you're gone, the silence stays Why did you leave me with this killing silence? Why did you leave me with this screaming silence? I see your shadow next to me Silence… But all that's gone cannot be real Silence swallows me, it burns like flame on my skin There is a shame deep inside I know it'll never, never leave My mistake I can't deny For many years I've prayed for chance to say goodbye Couldn’t stay, I know you couldn’t stay And I understand your loneliness today Why can't I let it go? The memories are just a painful echo of the things we can’t redo I meet you in my dreams over and over again, but... the morning always ruins all my hopes...
8.
Just Tired 03:53
I hear your quiet song, The voice so beautiful and luring You are here to save me from the bitter truth i know now The darkest moment, the moment that is meant for everyone… Could I ever hope for it to be less lonely?

about

The new album of Ukrainian metal band Ex Animo is a well-balanced mix of Dark, Doom and Symphonic metal. Aggressive, but still melodic sound, dark atmosphere and thoughtful lyrics – this is the result of several years of experiments inspired by the genius of Anathema, Moonspell, The Gathering, Black Sun Aeon, October Tide, Swallow the Sun, Paradise Lost.

Album features the compositions from a prior demo “Souglass”, accompanied by the five completely new tracks. Whether you are haunted by the ghosts from the past or suppressed by the fear of the future, you will find a song that echoes in you.

“Neverday” - the day that never comes, the moment when a man will be able to finally throw away the burden of fake and imposed values, listen to his inner self and realize why he came in this world.
