Starboard!
Block the windows
Starboard!
Somebody block the windows
Does this need define me?
Does it seal me?
Can its space confine me?
Leave me be
Breathe in
One lungful at a time
If only I could name it
A fool's errand to know myself
A grand terror to put my trust in you
Drawn in by the current
Alone adrift the ocean,
It's not so bad
Given to its motion
Red on the horizon, following
Hunting down a phantom
This vessel has no ropes to help you aboard
Drowning in the current
Board up all the windows,
There's a storm ahead
Starboard!
Block the windows
Starboard!
Somebody block the windows
Just go away
Just draw me closer
Follow along, catch up to me
I don't know how long I can hold her
Follow along
Hurry along
If I could just find the questions
Maybe you'd know the answers
But I see clouds in the distance to you

Flagpoles tinkering in a maze of pavement
Lights that strip the colors off
Cinder-blocks that listen
Windows watch the sorrow
and your words make hollow sounds
But from your mind they took a child
An assuming thing to pressure
And like a child you lost your mind
Just like a child
The chemicals that made you betrayed your expectations
Was it really there before?
Who you are won't matter when they're done with you
But you never knew her at all
But from your mind they took a child
Unassuming thing
To pressure
And like a child you lost your mind
Just like a child
Feel like you're breaking at their hands
Feel like they'll break you
It doesn't matter
Barbiturate your way back and
Make them so proud to call you their daughter
Fall back behind the veil again
Fall back to shadow
It doesn't matter
Feel like you're breaking at their hands
Feel like they'll break you into a man
But from your mind they took a child
And from your fear they brandished an iron
And with your trust they delivered a lie
They got deep inside to save you

supported by 5 fans who also own “Starboard Single”
It's a great blend of different metal genres and styles, with great solos in basically every song, just that touch of oriental influences that feel natural but not artificial and above all else, performed by the beautiful, haunting voice of Jelena Dobric, who uses it in a way that is not the typical operatic approach as we are used to from other female-fronted bands
