IAMONE - FOLLOWING THE RABBIT HOLE (Full 20-Minute Single Stream)

FOLLOWING THE RABBIT HOLE is a single 20-minutes song, a continuous suite, with 6 movements.
Creating this piece, for the first time in IAMONE's history, we all locked ourselves together as a band in the studio, with a blank, white sheet - without any prepared riffs, without ideas, wanting only to convey a compelling, emotional story in one long composition.
We worked on it in secret for nearly 5 months.
We hope you enjoy this as much as we do.

LYRICS:
🌀 HOLLOW EARTH 🌀
Constricted fragments of ones soul
On northern, southern pole
I seek the entrance to the eye
The mystery's unwound
And through the ever watchful eye
The mystery unwinds
Whatever's said - be on your guard
Don't ever let go those who defy
And I'm convinced my enemy is there among them
Believed a little
My dream reveals obtuse and obscene
Open your eyes
The time has come
Emptiness, a beckoning void alluring me
The promise of truth that's buried within
I'm asking for signs
I'm begging to see
All that is hidden behind the veil
Away with the lies, I care for nothing else
Betrayed again by the ordinary life of mine
That makes me want to die
Why do I feel so hollow
Hoping I can conceal it
🌀 CRISIS FACTOR 🌀
Suffering innocents
While you idiots boast obstinance
You know best, I can tell
Crooks and liars swarming at your gates
How many victims does it take
To make you realise that you're not one of them
Consumed by the fear
Cultivated inside you for all these years
Searching blindly for a sign of remedy
Swallowed by the crowds radiating misery
The only cure that’s resting underneath the skin
Awaken me, the innocence inside of me
I feel like I’m alone in a violent world
Where fear and greed blot out love and kindness
With so much hate and vitriol around us
I feel like empathy is a single drop
In an endless ocean of conflict
Everywhere I go I see the same hungering eyes
In everyone around me
Hungering to know the unknown
Hungering to love and be loved in return
Hungering for respect and understanding
I want to die knowing I fought for what is right
Someday, somewhere
Helpless will find the hope again
Someday, somewhere
Hopeless will find the help again
Revel in simplicity
Tranquil sounds that are beckoning
Give in to the melody
Succumb to the urge to listen and feel
🌀 BLACK KNIGHT 🌀
In oblivion my disgrace
Forgotten in this place
Dreaming gently in the night
Secrets guarding my demise
And I cannot escape
To be the one to save
Must wait until I fall
The black knight’s final call
The black knight’s final
Tell the earth I'm waiting
They're failing
The black knight’s final calling
Fading
You're fading
The message was
Inside of me
Waiting
To break it
The curse has lost
Its' gravity
Can you hear me now
A part of me is gone
How did I end up here
In the race to the future we forgot what disappeared
Was it all a fairytale
A careless dream that
Made me drop the guard
And now
I feel I’m missing something I’ve known
I can’t quite place it
It’s been erased
And the echoes eerily drum
The final witness to the years passed
He is long gone
🌀 PHANTOM TIME 🌀
Take all my fears
False prophecies
Burn them to ash
Be free at last
Grasping for the shooting stars
I paint them with your shaken ambitions
Yearning to be blessed with sight
Among the blind
Within imperfect conditions
By fire
I'm cleansing
All my mistakes
While you surround my dreams
With swelling voices
Wildfire is raging
Engulfing all those years
That I survived with broken choices
Give up your pride
Cast away the shame
The bridges you have burnt
Have lit the path to take
Grasp what’s in sights
Irrelevant in the face of time
Unchanged it remains until you turn it to ash
🌀 TO ASH 🌀
Searching inside of my own again
Among the smouldering remains
I grasp foundations of myself
Maybe I'm meant to be
Searching inside of my own again
The time has come
To awaken what’s within
The burning host in me
Combined what's torn apart
To take me on that road
To the edge of the unknown
