The track represents and portraits an accumulation of emotional erosion, specifically in relation to involuntary isolation and the loneliness that follows it. iota represents the album’s core aesthetics, a search for a balance between the melodic and dissonant, aggressive versus atmospheric. Album to be released on May 28th. LYRICS: I’ve been holding off on reason in favor of guilt. It is too easy to lean back on old dust while planning future feats. My walls are glaring at me now. Bone white with a hint of disgust. The only drapery both in and outside of my head: Sound, dirt, old air, mold, sleep, and light. Alas, it might be time to make a shift of companionship. Show me out to the streets. Meet my face at every crease. I’d like to listen to all of your morose and pluck the seams off for relief. I know how walls crumples the mind, but also how in the folds, there are answers to find. I chose to be self-aware, But despised to act honestly My deeds for tomorrow, Are my needs for today This is how I apologize for my absence, I’ll be a foot closer to your hearts by now
