Life has so much more to give,
Even for the sins you may forgive.
There’s still something out there for you,
Not all is turmoil, there’s some left to do.

The darkest days run through your head,
The restless nights in your bed.
Thinking about all the times that were great,
Not knowing what the future was to create.
To make life so much less enjoyable,

“Long Season” made me realize,
Life has much more to mesmerize.

Live for yourself,

One of the best first time listens to an album I've ever had. When the leitmotifs from the start came back in at the end I wanted to ascend.
I was stepping out of my comfort zone yesterday, when I decided to listen to it.
