Track By Tracks: ABSTRACTED - Hiraeth (2026)

1. Axis:

“Axis” works as the conceptual core of the album. The song explores the human search for balance — between past and future, reason and emotion, mistakes and growth. The idea of the “axis” represents a point of origin: where everything begins and where everything should ultimately return.

Through mathematical and geometric metaphors, the lyrics reflect on identity, awareness, and personal responsibility. The band questions the constant attempt to find balance externally, only to realize that true equilibrium can only be sustained when one returns to their own core. It is a reflection on accepting past mistakes, correcting trajectories, and moving forward with clarity, recognizing that time is our most valuable resource.

2. Languish:

This track portrays a state of emotional and existential numbness. It speaks about living in repetitive cycles, wearing social masks to hide internal decay. The “lifeless mannequin” symbolizes someone who still exists physically but has lost purpose, identity, and hope.

The song addresses depression, stagnation, and the feeling of being frozen in time. Even when there is an attempt to rebuild, it is accompanied by guilt, denial, and self-sabotage. It is a raw depiction of the internal struggle between the desire to change and the crushing weight of emptiness.

3. Sirens:

Set in a nocturnal urban environment, this song uses the city as a metaphor for illusions, broken dreams, and fragmented identities. The dissonant jazz imagery represents a chaotic, improvised, and emotionally unstable life.

There is also a deeply personal element of loss, memory, and grief. The narrative blends reality and delirium, where the protagonist carries the burden of shattered dreams and someone they failed to protect. In the end, everything converges into absolute loneliness — a wanderer adrift, consumed by guilt and a sense of failure.

4. To Quench This Insatiable Thrist:

This track deals with inner corruption and moral decay. The “hungry void” represents destructive impulses, addictions, and behaviors that consume everything around them. The lyrics make it clear that corruption does not come from outside — it is born within.

The only path presented is purification: letting go of attachment to pain, allowing old versions of oneself to die, and embracing a painful but necessary process of rebirth. It is a song about confronting one’s own darkness in order to rebuild something honest and new.

5. Requiem:

“Requiem” is about abandonment, rejection, and emotional dependency. It tells the story of seeking shelter in someone who never truly belonged there. The relationship portrayed is toxic, seductive, and destructive, symbolized by the figure of a “queen” who consumes everything around her.

The song represents mourning not only for a person, but for the versions of oneself that were sacrificed. It is a bitter farewell marked by regret, anger, and the painful awareness that some losses are irreversible.

6. The Barren Grave of God:

This track addresses the rupture with dogmas, false beliefs, and imposed authorities. The “death of God” here is not literal, but symbolic — it represents the end of blind submission and corrupted faith.

The burial symbolizes liberation. By abandoning tyrannical figures and flawed saviors, the individual assumes responsibility for their own existence. It is a song about autonomy, awareness, and spiritual emancipation — becoming one’s own master.

7. The Utter end:

The final track portrays total exhaustion. The narrator sees themselves as a puppet, controlled by internal and external forces, trapped in cycles of self-destruction, guilt, and submission.

Blending religious imagery, sacrifice, and decay, the song describes the complete loss of control and identity. Yet there is a quiet form of acceptance: the end does not come as an explosion, but as a slow fading. The album closes with the feeling that collapse becomes inevitable when consciousness can no longer sustain the weight of its own existence.
