lyrics

Through my window
The world outside pushing ever inwards
Oh these fibres that I weave
How quickly they unravel

So I dig myself further in
Is there no poetry within?

How I crave the sun
If just to burn and purify
This outer layer of reality
And maybe scourge the rest of me

If there really is a 'me'
Or just the 'he' of someone else

And so is a stale end the only way to start afresh
And Oh How I cling to this liberating, cynical refrain
And if I loose the will to see this life in all it's colours
From grey to black, will I paint in shades of imagined lands?

Though I would've fled so long ago
There still remains a shimmering reward
Lying buried in the ruins of a troubled life
A wasted life

Beyond the walls of this uncertainty
Lies a morbid fear of black eternity
And so I choose this fragile reverie
Another time
One final time

So I dig myself further in
There is no poetry within

And so is a stale end the only way to start afresh
And Oh How I cling to this liberating, cynical refrain
And if I loose the will to see this life in all it's colours
From white to black, will I paint in shades of grey

Absolute masterpiece. Consistently one of my favourite bands in any genre. Ben & Gone

Norchestrion: a song for the end
by Need

supported by 18 fans who also own “From Grey To Black”

An impressive work of progressive metal, seems initially to be taken out of the best moments of the genre’s behemoths (Fates Warning, Dream Theater). However, with enough distinction and personality, featuring Greek folk elements here and there, the musicianship mastery of the band members make tracks like Nemmortal, Norchestrion and Circadian, bright jewels for the genre and for metal in general. A must have album!!! Hetairos Hekateros

supported by 18 fans who also own “From Grey To Black”

Pour un premier album, Konom fait montre d’une maîtrise franchement impressionnante. On pourrait leur reprocher d’être encore très classique dans leur approche du prog, mais ce serait pinailler. Ils ont déjà une identité reconnaissable. (Chroniqué sur https://alias.erdorin.org) Stéphane Gallay
