1.
For the first time I see what is real, A past full of wounds, that’s all I feel The shadows surround me and everything seems to come up, But today I am stronger, and this has to stop Today I know why there were tears in my eyes, But the days go by and there are no lies The page must be turned to avoid my pain, The question that remains: will I be the same?
2.
I'm walking around in circles, and I realize that nothing else makes sense, Why did I get so weak? I try to sleep but the fear comes up, I drown in gray clouds, I talk to myself waiting for... A moment of calm, A way out of the dark I'm falling apart It's hard to look out the window, and regret that I'm not living out there What if I took some pills? What would I become? Would I be strong? I'm waiting for... A moment of calm, A way out of the dark, I'm falling apart.
3.
To forget all this pain, To forgive whoever hurt you again, You blame yourself just to be okay To forget all this fear, To forget every tear, Would you be better off if you were not here with me? If you plan to say goodbye Know that I'll not want to find you You don’t need to hide from me, Know that I erased you from my mind
4.
My eyes are still open but I see it’s dark, I do the best I can, just so I can start again My trembling lips can’t take the cold anymore, I don’t even know who I was before Dream more, Dream at least for today Dream more, Don’t throw it all away. My mind tries to ignore the facts And tries not to react, But my lonely heart was silenced by the past Dream more, Dream at least for today Dream more, Don’t throw it all away.

"This EP offers shadowy, reserved music that could almost be labelled as post-prog. The band gives us gorgeous keys, excellent vocals, and serene vistas to cherish, all with a darkened and cinematic aura"

Profilprog:

"Drowning Steps made it simple by offering a fast EP, too fast; however the 4 titles are perfect, concise, printing an intense nostalgic atmosphere, an inventive basic sound on vocal harmonies well in place"

Prog Censor: www.facebook.com/385819108688978/posts/949261372344746/

"The beauty of the sounds and the elegance of the arrangements of these 4 short tracks praise the values ​​of the group and arouse the desire to hear more"

Prog Rock Journal:

"A different record from the previous one, which shows another facet of the project's sound, with refined compositions that favor more delicate sounds"
