PREFACE: Since they moved, day by day, he has only known her a familiar face. She doesn't speak, nor smiles. Her stare has grown colder and she's not present. She spends most of the day watching the neighbor's orange garden rot away. It was long ago, the tragedy, but she still cries herself to sleep. Night rests on your shoulder, The curtain sways to the wind Reminds me that we're still alive Remind me that I'm still supposed to love But today I want you to know I arrived to an open door And was greated by a shadow Like a ghost on a leash A reminder of what was like To see life withering before the eye Your feet don't touch the floor You're cold and beyond frail By now you must have seen your maker's face You must be holding our child in grace And by the time you look down...

Moments of silence follow... Electric silence... A calm storm in the noir, the post-storm... A spark from the universe... He's rebooting... A long, flacid creature emerges from the new soil... Then another and another and another... The new critters rise and dance with the first rain... The same rain erodes the cracks and floods the valleys... Life is flowering... It's time to celebrate...

I will make you happy I am the euphorizer In despair, she waits

"Why? Why do we keep seeing your ghost around? Why do you keep haunting me? I promised you I'd study the stars and the void, to save you from the end. But you disappeared, and then you appeared again. I missed you, but you were not the same..."

"The last day on earth, the day the swans lift off, to the orbit, to warn their mother they are ready for our departure. She'll activate their senses of lust and greed for space, stolen by concrete and tarmac. Their eyes will turn red, and their sweat an acid rain. And on that day, you will be irrelevant to me."

about

"Better than In Twixt."
~ Josephjörn Crowley

"Girl repellent."
~ Josephjörn Crowley

RETROSPECTIVE: Call it what you want: "a sequel to In Twixt" or "leftovers from In Twixt". This record carries a progression from start to finish that I still enjoy to this day, even more than the former.



Another weird ass day... Huh?

This record serves a direct continuation of In Twixt's main ideas, although a completely different story. "Sunsune Blackout" is a "warm up" track within Ziondiver's album context, as the Ziondiver story starts with "Inflow Continuity" and ends with "Run / Ziondiver". Most of the lyrics was omitted and not written down, only the essential's there.
