about

"Chimera" manifests the presence of duality across the entire universe. The idea to present a hybrid creature as the main topic came after having listened to the song’s composition that contains a bizarre mix of many genres and ideas, glued together, that forms a very compelling passage. Chimera is an amalgamation, binding those pieces together to form a single entity.

The song’s lyrics bind many paradoxes together, posing them as something inherent to reality. The very early dreamy recall of hinduistic Maya sets the tone of the piece - an ever-evolving appearance, an ever-changing shape of reality.

The main point of navigating through a dynamic, fluctuating reality is to come to an understanding that this is the only constant assumption of it. The cycle of life - the one who comes from the horizon and goes away - is prevalent like an imperative. Those who try to deny it and shape the world to their individual needs are fighting for the cause that is unreachable.

The evolution binds units together but also sets them apart. Paradoxes are part of our reality. Only the one, who is born and dead at the same time, prevails.

lyrics

Maya (aaah)
Chimera
Maya (aaah)
Chimera

Way
May
Stay
Away

Who comes from the horizon?
Who goes away?

One who is born and dead and
One who prevails

Oh chimera
Oh Tara

Oh chimera
Oh Mara

Blood worn
Sealed vault

Anywhere I’m making another sign,
Any right is sorrow

Anywhere I’m fighting force of life
Any right is sorrow

So you wrath on
So you wrath on us

Omen of path
And the right is wrong
Right is wrong

Alive at last
And the right is wrong
Right is wrong
