In memory of chasing the impossible and writing lyrics that needed a few more minutes in the oven... and probably existed more for vocal practice, which is why I cut them from the 2019 rerelease

lyrics

A living fountain of youth
I've searched to find for many years
Without any regrets
At least not yet

A living fountain of youth defies all time
It steals my soul
My heart and mind

No more lies today
I don't believe a word you say
I don't know what I'm hearing

No more times the same
As lonely as it is I'll stand alone
Even without a home to call my own

A living fountain of youth is not real
A creation, an illusion

Is it true that when we die, that there will be no afterlife?
Hard to accept, but is there any proof for any such afterlife?

No more it seems, they'll take away my dreams
Mislead me all the way, to rape and steal my days
Forlorn without a soul, given reason in its place
I know what the real answers are, there's no shame in reality!

No more cries of pain
As scary as it is the end will come
Perhaps it's nothing to fear at all

A living fountain of youth is all look forward to
I don't believe in faith that's ephemeral

I can't believe in you
I can't believe in you
I can't believe in you

Nine Dragons
by Ghost Hall

It's almost like Shenmue II background music but a little more intricate and synthy. I go into a little more detail on my fan account, but either way I think you should check it out. Amber of the Land

The Evening Red
by Æðra

So many textures, genres, variety, instrumental finesse. It's downright romantic sounding at times. I'd recommend it if you like the raw passion of old Agalloch and more progressive, insane things. Amber of the Land

smallwave
by 32mbit

I think it's my brother's best album to date, with many catchy melodies. Some tracks take more from his past IDM nature, while some are more deliberate. All-in-all, a nice love letter to retro VGM. Amber of the Land
