about

A thought, urging us to swerve into oncoming traffic or jump from the balcony ledge are contemplations of the mind found in reality. The French have a phrase for it, 'L’appel du vide'.
But where are these intrusive thoughts coming from?
The lyrics decipher the mystery of a severed instinct, no logic can explain.

lyrics

For a moment
I dare to contemplate
Out of my body
A different mental state
I found euphoria
Upon a ledge you see
As I imagine the possibilities

CHORUS
My thoughts they are of violence
I hear the twisted call of the void
More than paranoid a scream in silence
I hear the twisted call of the void

The gate is swinging open and closed onto the other side
Will I have the courage to go into the blinding light

A severed instinct
No logic can explain
Its no vacation
Self depri-capitation

My thoughts they are of violence
I hear the twisted call of the void
More than paranoid a scream in silence
I hear the twisted call of the void

The gate is swinging open and closed onto the other side
Will I have the courage to go into the blinding light

CHORUS
