A Death We Didn't Choose

Описание: "This birth was hard and bitter, like the ice in the air.
It felt like a Death we didn't choose to share."

A Death We Didn't Choose strips away the nativity scene's golden glow to reveal the gritty reality of the Wise Men's journey. It is a dark, atmospheric exploration of the Epiphany. It is not a song about celebration. It's about the cost of transformation; how witnessing something divine often means the "execution of the old Earth" and the inability to return to the life you once knew.

This is a track for the weary, the searching, and those who know that true change is never comfortable.

Turn off the lights, listen to the silence, and experience a different side of the season.

Lyrics:

"A cold coming we had of it,"
Just like the last three winters that hit.
The roads were the worst time of year,
The deepest regret, the heaviest fear.
The camel men swore, they cursed and they cried,
We kept thinking of the luxury we left behind.
The city felt wrong, the markets looked dead,
The voices kept whispering inside of my head.
The heat of the summer had long since gone,
Now the slow days just dragged on and on.

We traveled all night, we barely slept at all,
Just listening for the signal, waiting for the call.
We saw the old world shatter, watched it burn,
When we arrived, there was no way to return.
This birth was hard and bitter, like the ice in the air,
It felt like a Death we didn't choose to share.
We witnessed the meaning, the force and the fire,
And walked away shaken, burning desire.

Then came the high country, where the snow wouldn't yield,
The village was quiet, the true birthplace concealed.
We found the right door, after all of that doubt,
There was nothing spectacular, nothing cried out.
Just one thing we saw, that we can't unsee now,
The final question—When do we learn how to bow?
We went back to our kingdoms, our offices, our lands,
With a different scripture placed in our hands.

We are no longer comfortable in the old way,
The courts and the habits we knew yesterday.
We carry a secret that changed every friend,
And wait for the moment where this life has to end.
We came all this way just to witness a birth,
But it felt like the execution of the old Earth.

We traveled all night, we barely slept at all,
Just listening for the signal, waiting for the call.
We saw the old world shatter, watched it burn,
When we arrived, there was no way to return.
This birth was hard and bitter, like the ice in the air,
It felt like a Death we didn't choose to share.
We witnessed the meaning, the force and the fire,
And walked away shaken, burning desire.

We were glad of the silence.
But waiting for another death.
