about

Inspired by retro synthesizers, star formation, and current events, Accretion is an epic 20-minute journey into the depths of space. the formation of a massive star out of innumerable tiny particles.

lyrics

adrift in an endless ocean
dark voids and spinning dust
orbit my distant isolation

Voices echo silently among the lights
obfuscated by millions patches
of absolutely nothing

my heart seeks the other
to join in communion
the wells pull us together
into a world of heat

Our hearts burn together in
the furnace at the center
your toil is ice
my fear is fire

particles, clouds, then planets
spun round vortices of eternal night
broken, burnt to stop their endless rotation
destroying space and time

coalescence to our end
Accretion
