Aether Realm - "Cycle" (video)
I can’t go on
When I look inside I know
I have myself to blame
I see the hurt in their eyes
All the same
A short revival
And then the crash
And thus the cycle
Repeats for me at last
A brief reprisal
Before the end
And thus the cycle
Begins for me again
The taste-once sweet-
Has lost allure to me
There’s a beast inside,
I keep it locked up far away
But it always escapes and repays
And then the lights fall dim
And the world grows colder
Victim of a manmade misery
And with a manic grin
It derives my torture
Ripping at the seams of victory
A short revival and then the crash
And thus the cycle repeats for me at last
A brief reprisal before the end
And thus the cycle begins for me again

Δελτίο τύπου: «The lyrics for 'Cycle' came to me in a desperate place. I was trying to make sense of why I still experienced these long episodes of depression, even when there didn't seem to be an obvious reason for it to come on.
It's like it was always waiting to sneak up and snatch me out of the moment, and no amount of personal growth or skill mastery or artistic recognition could prevent it from taking me in its grip. So I thought - if I can't prevent the feeling from coming on, I can at least give myself a tangible reminder that this is normal for me.
That I've made it out of low places before, and I will again. This song helps keep my feet on the ground when I'm feeling cocky highs, and it gives me some hope when I'm running low. It was a pleasure to turn that emotional blooming and wilting that we all experience from time to time into a visual aesthetic with Jaraad Nageer and Ana Manso.»
