about

Exospheric -(It's curious how this dreamy little ballad came about. I was trying to see if the limited scope of the sequencer and drum machine I was working with could be used in a subtle but slightly 'orchestral' manner besides being the foundation for a mammoth instrumental arrangement.

Synthesizers were initially going to be used,but I felt that their presence made the track come across as just a piece of ambient electronica fluff and not the semi symphonic thing it was aiming for. Cello bowed guitars were again used for this song, which while I could have recorded them better looking back, they function as what they need to. Lessons learned for later works. The lyrics were molded with the changes the song went through, until I settled for an airy but melancholic execution once I went to work on the vocals.

It's a simple piece,but it flows very nicely after Carved Into The Night Sky. It was one part of the clutch along with the titular track that made the cull of the material that lived up to my earlier ambitions but not the reality of releasing a double album that was close to two hours. Again, lessons were learned for later works.)

lyrics

Detachment is the only option left
Freedom, is a crime worthy of theft

With no moorings, I'm set adrift
What's left behind, scavengers will sift

No glories sought or to collect
Just the impulse to self protect

Travel time is measured in years
Humbled by, assorted fears

Adieu, the life that I used to dread
Laid to rest,uncertain what lays ahead

Breaking free, lost in flight

Ascension fades, far from sight x2


{No trace remains in reach}


Adieu, my checkered past
And all it's bonds that did not last


{No trace remains in reach}

Time cruelly wounds and steals
Yet, it mercifully heals
