I die therefore I am

lyrics

I die therefore I am
Existing through perception
I want to burn with these notions, debunking the reality
It makes me sick
Choice is an illusion
Feed this urge for the self-destruction
Self is a lie, I’m the reflections
Utter depression in the paradox
To be is to deny
I shed my skin and find the proof
Death and life entwined
Life to die for death to live for

눈꺼풀 아래 요동치는 발견되길 바라는 정당성
고요한 아침이 올 때 까지

I die therefor I am, therefore I die
Life to die for death to live for

What I couldn’t find
What couldn’t have existed
What could have been born

The thin line between existence and non-existence is going blurry
And it is always gory
The animal of doom in me wants to wear my face
I become its mask
Life is unstoppable, so die to truly exist
Life to die for death to live for
I die therefor I am
I dive into the black ocean
Where I’m you and you are me

Pressed down by the weight of sleep
It gardens my anxiety

The silent is preying on me
My skin dissolves and I’m becoming one with the ocean
Trees weep with the night wind
Where it’s giving birth to none

So still, yet so violent
The absolute
I die therefor I am

about

Human Traces Berlin, Germany

After their long and arduous journey, it is time for them to
reemerge as a band. On 28.10.2022, Human Traces will begin their
three-course menu with the fruits of their labour.
"Akt I: Life to die for" will be the first of three EPs that will
result in an entire album. The dish of the day is pure and
petrifying depression, spiced with rage, grief and a hint of
aggression.
