Lyrics:

From the other side
You call out my name
With a voice I don't recognize
And even though I try
I can't make out a face
Missing pieces of the design

Something's out of line
Broken paradigm of space and
Time keeps ticking by
And it's draining my energy

And I can't fight it back
And I can't fight it back

No matter how many times I try
All the screams and cries
I can't break through
The wall's so high
And my strength is now failing me

And I can't fight it back
And I can't fight it back

Is it too late?
Is this my fate?

Through the eyes of times gone by
I wave goodbye to paradise
Laid to rest dreams that I could fly
To think I'd die to touch the sky
A foolish child lost in a lie
Now it's time that I say my goodbyes
To paradise

A living memory
A never-ending dream
A facade with no truth beneath
An endless symphony
A choir of deceit
Orchestrating a ruthless scheme

Nothing's as it seems
Promises empty
Like a machine that's withering
Every routine in disarray

And I can't fight it back
And I can't fight it back

Thoughts scatter into a whirring breeze
Lost in disbelief
The glass breaks, slowly revealing
Everything is dust and decay

And I can't fight it back
And I can't fight it back

Is it too late?
Is this my fate?

Through the eyes of times gone by
I wave goodbye to paradise
Laid to rest dreams that I could fly
To think I'd die to touch the sky
A foolish child lost in a lie
Now it's time that I say my goodbyes
To paradise

"Paradise", or so they called it
Nothing more than a call to submit
A future with zero conflict
Illusion, no one wants to admit
Pierce the veil and live forever
What's the point if no one remembers?
Memories and bonds are severed
Offerings to the ocean of time

Time passes by
Pain subsides
One last goodbye
To paradise

Through the eyes of times gone by
I wave goodbye to paradise
Laid to rest dreams that I could fly
To think I'd die to touch the sky
A foolish child lost in a lie
Now it's time that I say my goodbyes

Through the eyes of times gone by
I wave goodbye to paradise (to paradise)
Laid to rest dreams that I could fly (laid to rest)
To think I'd die to touch the sky
A foolish child lost in a lie (in a lie)
Now it's time that I say my goodbyes (say my goodbyes)

To paradise

Letter from the Producer:

My friends, the original content drought is finally over! I couldn't be more proud of how this song came together. When Eclipsed Sounds announced a songwriting contest for Saros I knew it'd be fun to try, but didn't expect what would happen when I sat down to begin writing my song.

Saros is incredibly inspiring and a blast to worth with! Every single time I had a cool idea it was like the voice responded back with "I got this". I tried to use as many different variations on the vocal as I possibly could because of this! There's low, low parts. There's high, high parts! Playing around and discovering what Saros was capable of was just as fun as the actual process of writing the song.

Lyrically this song also represents a bit of a stylistic shift in my writing compared to my previous original work. Rather than being based on personal experience, I dove deep into concept and character for this song (and my other upcoming originals follow this trend!). I've really been enjoying developing that skill lately, and I hope you like a less direct, more metaphorical and painterly style of lyric!
