Void Stares Back

Harrow Flux

Avant-Garde

About

Harrow Flux's 'Void Stares Back' plunges into existential turmoil via dissonant intervals that grate against unconventional timbres from prepared piano and scraped found objects. Extended techniques on voice and strings introduce aleatory elements, with spoken fragments unraveling in irregular, flux-like structures over sparse electronics. The climax erupts in raw, overdriven chaos, deconstructing into stark silence that mirrors the void's unyielding gaze.

Lyrics

Void stares back, unblinking eye Flesh hangs loose on bone-dry frame No cradle rocks this hollow birth Drift in flux, no name, no claim No claim, no claim Torrential tears unravel from the seam Claw through barren soil Heavy air tastes of regret's bile What mass slips on this fevered coil? Steps echo wrong in empty halls Freedom bites with iron teeth Build a world from shame Shattered walls or choke on silence Underneath Underneath Torrential tears watch meaning fray Random pulse in veins of stone I forge the chain that binds my throne As it swells, oh, swells, I'm overthrown Thrown, overthrown Overthrown Overthrown, overthrown, overthrown Rage erupts in splintered light Absurdity, decor, I hurl defiance at the night No savior knocks on reason's door Scream, the weight of beings lie Naked will in chaos Fire must invent or curl and die Infinite alone desires Pire Why this pulsing meat machine Condemned to craft My fleeting scheme Peel the skin of false design layers Flake to dust and Winston No anchor grips Lest the shifting grind Self-scale scatters Where the, the wild All thoughts in chance ignites The spark exit bend then Snap and part illusions Bleed from beating heart Nothing left but voids dark I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, Guiding sight forever flung, forever alone, fades to hush. I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I.
