What if Calcharo had a dmc-style industrial/symphonic metal(core) song?

Although this song is about Calcharo, I wrote it as a way to process some really heavy thoughts I’ve been carrying. After finishing “Breathe In, Breathe Out” — my song about Aero Rover, I fell into a weird headspace where everything I made just felt wrong. I couldn’t explain why. I just couldn’t connect with anything I was creating.

As you know, Calcharo doesn’t really have any story yet in the game, and that blank space gave me room to explore this feeling of being stuck in your own mind, like you're constantly pushing against an immovable void. The lyrics reflect that kind of quiet chaos that builds when you try to hold everything in.

This is the longest wuwa song I’ve done at a 6 minute long runtime, it explores the topic of accepting inner darkness and learning to move with it instead of trying to overcome it or offer resolution. I realize that in the strange, heavy stillness, there's clarity and a spark of life that wasn’t there before.

The tension between isolation and connection, identity, and the ache for something beautiful or real.. It’s one that Mark (The Recovery System) and I poured our hearts into, and we are so happy with how it turned out. I got to scream and sing a bit in this one!!
