lyrics

I count my steps in the dark to not be afraid
when walking the streets in the city I hate
Searching for a home
Searching for a safe place at night
Where are the people I love in the city I hate

Its getting colder every step I go further
more quiet in the streets the voices get louder
I start running an endless way
Isn’t there anyone running with me

Where are the lights of the streets chasing out the ghosts of the night
It's getting darker I try to run faster

Run faster, run the ghosts say
Run until you reach the rivers of all floating time
Each will bring you out of this labyrinth of dark streets
Where you never know which turn is the right to bring you back to the light
But hurry in these rainy days the rivers get higher they pull you under they drag you along
Run my dear run faster my dear, Run the ghosts say

Where are the people I love in the city I hate
Isn't there anyone running with me?
It's getting darker - I try to run faster
Where are the lights of the streets chasing out the ghosts?

There are ghosts in the streets
There are ghosts in the walls
There are ghosts in my head
Running with me
I try to run as fast as I can
These were the days when I couldn’t stop running away

ARCHIVIST

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
