I could never categorize AM or put myself into a genre because my music is not modeled after anything else . . . I refer to it now as 'romantic drama film sountrack goth metal' . . . Though very few of the pieces are actually heavy, the music maintains a level of intensity throughout the album and in that intensity there is beauty . . .
Abandoned Moment is powerful music with haunting, poetic lyrics that create images of dreams, sorrow, love and fantasies . . . The album is full of ambient piano pieces and intense guitar-driven tracks . . . To quote a friend, 'It's either the last thing you listen to or the only thing' . . . 'Like Endless Rivers to the Waterfall' is Abandoned Moment's very darkest and finest work to date . . . Until the final chord, it will move you and at its conclusion, leave you breathless . . .
Here are some lyrics . . .
Waterfall
"A rainstorm at night . . . Still dripping at dawn . . . Tears stream away like endless rivers and I dream . . . Midnight . . . The forest fell silent and still . . . Awaken my heart as tears stream away . . . Like endless rivers to the waterfall"
Somewhere in the Dark
"The smoke still rising . . . You were like an angel in the ashes . . . Nameless to me and faceless in the flames . . . You were smothered by a falling snow . . . And when midnight came . . . You were watching the cold grey sky . . . Nameless you me and faceless in the glow . . . You bled in the flowing river . . . And when dawn came . . . At the end of that dream . . . Without a voice . . . Without a face . . . I knew I loved you . . . But when I opened my eyes . . . Somewhere in the dark . . . Without a thought . . . I knew I would never see you again"
The Ashes Blew Away
"The ashes blew away in the night . . . I can't scream . . . I can't cry . . . Dreaming . . . In black and white . . . I can't scream . . . I can't cry . . . Wandering . . . 'Neath a grey sky . . . The ashes blew away in the night . . . If I could've only said goodbye"
Regret
"I beg that you strike the heart of me . . . Shatter my silence and become a voice . . . Speak to me of what is not yet gone in dreams . . . I beg that you strike the heart of me and shatter me . . . The moment your love would not be so far away as my death . . . The last sound in the hall . . . A final tear falls for the past . . . A smoking candle of a dream . . . I fade into the pages I have left . . . Dreams of the dark . . . Without a light . . . Without a sound . . . Forgotten regret in my tears . . . You'll always be close to my broken heart . . . But when my heart dies there'll be no light at the end"
More than Anything . . . Forever
"The light was fading like a flame as we kissed and said goodbye . . . Not knowing it was as close as I would ever feel you again . . . My heart was unspoken . . . As it begged I let it bleed . . . The light had faded like a flame . . . Smothered by a river of tears . . . Washing away the ashes of my heart . . . As it begged I let it bleed . . . The memory casts midnight over my heart . . . In its winter . . . As it begged I let it bleed"
Petals of Ice
"Tonight . . . This endless flowing through cracks and brick patterns of the garden's paths . . . In a coat of white . . . Walking with flowers behind your ears . . . Frozen roses . . . Petals of ice . . . Catch falling snow . . . Tonight . . . My tears could freeze . . . In a coat of white"
