Allt jag känner har jag känt för någon annan, men jag glömmer och lever för stunden. En stund som alltid tar slut och en annan stund tar vid.
Allt vi gjorde kan jag göra med någon annan. Som på nytt. Vi skapar nya ögonblick. Som om du och jag aldrig fanns och ett annat liv tar vid.
Med det sagt, så visste min kärlek till dig inga gränser. Du var mitt nu, mitt då, min framtid, du var mitt allt.
Allt jag ville var att vara älskad och det var jag, men kärleken tog slut. Varför måste allt vackert dö? Och tystnaden lägger sig.
Allt vi hade var på riktigt. Nu ett minne som suddas ut. Men det kunde varit annorlunda om vi hade sett var allt gick fel.
Jag kunde varje centimeter av din kropp, nu kommer jag knappt ihåg hur du ser ut. Jag kunde avsluta dina meningar, nu vet jag inte om jag skulle känna igen din röst. Så går det. Vi glömmer och minnen blir mer som drömmar. Diffusa bilder av en svunnen tid. Som fragment av det som var vårt liv.

Alpha and Omega
Everything I feel, I have felt for someone else, but I forget and live for the moment. A moment that passes as another moment begins.
Everything we did, I can do with someone else; start over and create new moments. It’s as if we never existed, a different life begins.
That being said, my love for you knew no boundaries. You were my now, my then, my future, you were my everything.
All I wanted was to be loved. And I was, but the love ran out. Why must everything beautiful die? And the silence sets in.
Everything we had was true. Now just a memory being erased. But it could have been different if we had seen where we went astray.
I once knew every inch of your body, now I hardly even remember how you look. I once could finish your sentences, now I don’t know if i would recognize your voice. So it goes. We forget and the memories become more like dreams. Blurry images of a lost time. Like fragments of what was our life.

This album is haunting, beautiful, and cathartic. One of the best post-black metal albums out there. I bought a cd on Discogs, but needed the vinyl. Доберман Сатз

Kansas City trio Flooding draw out the more mystical qualities of slowcore and noise rock for a heavy sound that's less stony than doom. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 26, 2023
Fans of Polvo, take note! The excellent Kansas City band Abandoncy has the same fondness for corkscrewing riffs & melodies. It’s great! Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 28, 2022

Hearing the songs while reading the narrative behind the lyrics, I felt overwhelmed by this tragic story in which humans and artificial intelligence couldn't coexist side by side. Their reciprocal annihilation was inevitable. Except one "sole survivor, in a ship filled with memories. She had become the proof of Earth, proof that life had existed there, a voice for all the species and beauty we once knew". A dystopian concept dressed up in brilliant musicianship! @Slevin, thanks, I owe it to you! Umbra Cornuta
