She’s calling the darkness Yet she’s afraid to be drawn in It’s easy to loose yourself When the pain is welcoming You can be elusive While counting the bruises Like you’re wearing another ones skin Don’t be so foolish You know what the truth is I’m here and always will be Mirrors can be delusive Or show what the truth Depending on what you decide Don’t be so foolish You know what the truth is I’m here and always will be I’m gonna wake you up I’m gonna lay you down I’m gonna be with you in the end And then we walk around Waiting for the dawn When it all makes sense again I’m gonna wake you up I’m gonna lay you down I’m gonna be with you in the end And then we walk around Waiting for the dawn When it all makes sense again I’m gonna wake you up I’m gonna lay you down I’m gonna be with you in the end And then we walk around Waiting for the dawn When it all makes sense again I’m gonna wake you up I’m gonna lay you down You better make me your friend She sees in the darkness With her amber glowing eyes She’s feeding her demons Like they’re lapdogs of herself It’s never the fire Sleeping eyes is what causes the burn It’s never the voyage But your home that makes you yearn Mirrors can be delusive Or show what the truth Depending on what you decide Don’t be so foolish You know what the truth is I’m here and always will be I’m gonna wake you up I’m gonna lay you down I’m gonna be with you in the end And then we walk around Waiting for the dawn When it all makes sense again I’m gonna wake you up I’m gonna lay you down I’m gonna be with you in the end And then we walk around Waiting for the dawn When it all makes sense again I’m gonna wake you up I’m gonna lay you down I’m gonna be with you in the end And then we walk around Waiting for the dawn When it all makes sense again I’m gonna wake you up I’m gonna lay you down You better make me your friend

Will you ever know how How high my fever peaks Will you ever know why And what it really means The glaciers melting down Your body brings a thawing heat The glaciers crashing down Into my vulnus sea Can you reach To me Far out from the dark Far out from the dark Unclose my doors And shout from the dark And shout from the dark Can I reach To you Far out from the dark Far out from the dark Unclose Your doors Don't shut in the dark Don't shut in the dark Will you ever know how You see me through my eyes Will you ever know What my words sound like When you free them from disguise The echoes bouncing back Stings that bore into my flesh The echoes coming back To throw me into the void Can you reach To me Far out from the dark Rar out from the dark Unclose my doors And shout from the dark And shout from the dark Can I reach To you Far out through the dark Far out through the dark Unclose your doors Don't shut in the dark Don't shut in the dark Don't shut in the dark Let me reach to you Don't shut in the dark Let me reach to you

We can ride forever On the horses that will have no name We can wear or never Dusted armor of forever blame uhhh  With a tremor sound uuhh On the quivered ground uuuuh With a tremor sound uuuuh From primal mouth Make a sound From the core to mouth From the ground of seas Until you know how To see To feel To see To feel We can ride forever On the horses, frail yet still the same We can cry together And release into a quiet dream Don't you know how it feels right How it feels again when All the love you´re bleeding from Is calling you within Oh it feels right It feels okay Let the drums expel the ghosts That carry you away uhhh  With a tremor sound uuhh On the quivered ground uuuuhh When we shake it off When we shake it off Then we shake it off We can ride forever, ever, ever

All the times we came home from late night sprees See All the lines we wrote in the sky See All the dreams we poured into glass and bud Mhh See the lines grow on me All away from the presence Away from the line A corridor winding Through buildings of time Spin the wheel of chances Spin the wheel Again For the kisses you never asked me for Dee For the reasons my heart concealed See For the leash that has pulled me back Mmhh See the lines grow in me All away from the presence Away from the line A corridor winding Through buildings of time Spin the wheel of chances Spin the wheel Again Let it dance Turn the tides again

Taking on the nymphs of the sea of greek mythology, each track has a subtitle to go with it. ‘Friend: Kalypso’ is a subdued and gentle track. The soft electric-piano like synths and faded drums cross over between 80’s pop and Vespertine clicks from Bjork. All the while Delhia’s soft and cooing voice is heavily layered upon itself to give multiple vocal riffs and vocal lines. I often refer to hypnotic music as a siren’s call and this does the trick perfectly. ‘Reach: Dione’ is a darker affair. It’s like a slow-motion techno anthem that leaves a lot of space between its pulses. Delhia De France’s voice is front and centre, stripped of all the technical wizardry it caresses your ears with its catchy chorus. The juxtaposition of the warm vocals and the kookier synths is excellent. ‘Tremors: Nemesis’ turns the tension up a notch with a Terminator-esuqe pulsing beat with plenty of stick percussion and strong vocal chants. ‘Spin the Wheel: Styx’ closes out the EP with a glassy but haunting late-night afterglow piece. The piano is underscored with cinematic synths and the whole piece feels like it could underscore a thriller.
