As the autumn skies dim and I gaze at the sunset, the clouds in the sky mock me. They roam free, reaching newer, higher heights, while I’m watching, waiting, wondering... Have I done enough? I know it's not enough to wait, to watch. Yet… sometimes, it's all I can do. Sitting and watching twilight approach, basking in my fondest memories and dreams, sipping a fresh cup of lavender. I guess that’s okay, in the end. It’s so easy to get lost in the rush of the day when we all seek to do more, be more than we ever imagine achieving. We’ll never catch a break. That’s life. So, in moments like these when we’re allowed a touch of calm, where we’re given a chance for repose, it’s fine to take it slow. To watch. To wait. Someday, you’ll notice that evening colored horizon rolling into dusk, take a seat, and ask yourself these same questions on my mind. Will it ever be enough?

Something has changed within the air Maybe a story ready to share? Oh, well put it down on pen and paper Make the movie later Write the score On tees you never wore When everything is said and done The making's half the fun Oh, and though your peers might sneer And make you fear them Shed your tears And push right through 'em Cuz I'll be there When it feels like no one cares Take a chance on me And someday you'll see Yourself among the stars There's a fantasy Making history That wonders where you are Someone feels complete Way across the seas With someone they hold true So take a chance on me Cuz can't you see that I love you Something has changed within your heart (Gently floating down) Something has changed within your art (Can't get the words out) Oh, you put it down on pen and paper Making changes later So the core Is different, something more When everything has been addressed Your heart seems quite obsessed... Oh, and know your fears might leer When you draw near them But shed your tears And push right through 'em Cuz I'll be there To make the leap that no one dares Take a chance on me And someday you'll see Yourself among the stars There's a fantasy Making history That wonders where you are Someone feels complete Way across the seas With someone they hold true So take a chance on me Cuz can't you see that I love you Take a chance on me And someday you'll see Yourself: an evening sun There's a fantasy Making history That knows you were the one Even when you're gone I will sing this song, Cuz someone holds you true Oh, it won't be long now I know they'll say "I love you"

Define Me 04:11
So there it goes again I've lost it, now it's time to pretend That I'm still not a lost cause That I know I have those flaws I can't see clearly when My eyes are open, mind closed in My thoughts built a wall around me I built it, the wall defines me So once again, I wonder Who else is through the border? I'm caving in The walls, my walls, oh no They're caving in Times up, I'm done Throw up my thoughts; think of none I need something To seize what's left of me I'm blank, sheet white I need some paint, nothing bright I'll leave it up to thee Come and define me I feel the need To bleed to prove I still breathe I'll leave it up to thee Come and define me I'm blank, sheet white I need some paint, nothing bright I'll leave it up to thee Come and define me I feel the need To bleed to prove I still breathe I'll leave it up to thee Come and define me I'm blank, sheet white I need some paint, something bright I'll leave it up to thee Come and define me I feel the need To bleed to prove I still breathe I'll leave it up to thee Come and define me Come and define me Come and define me Come and define me Come and define me Come and define me Come and define me Come and define me Come and define me

Respire 04:40
Please don't leave Let me feel you breathe through me Is eternity much farther away than this? Please don't go The way you make me feel; you know it's something in the breeze That drives me towards your kiss. So, would you take my breath away? So, could I take your breath away? Clear to see That I hold you dear to me There isn't much to fear When I'm this close to you Wait for me I want to runaway, you see It could be you and me So where are we going to? Oh, it should take our breath away... So, could you take my breath away? I know you must have So much to say But how 'bout we just respire Till we get tired of this And then maybe kiss It's a hit or miss And I want nothing but this And I'm afraid to die So please, could we just respire Till my mind comes off of it? Distract me with your gaze until my fears all fade away Near or far Doesn't matter where you are Just as long as I'm The one your thoughts turn to So make your move Is there any way to prove That in a couple days We'll have nothing left to lose? So, would you take my breath away? So, could I take your breath away? Please don't leave Let me feel you breathe through me Is eternity much farther away than this? So much to say But how 'bout we just respire Till we get tired of this And then maybe kiss It's a hit or miss And I want nothing but this And I'm afraid to die So please, could we just respire Till my mind comes off of it? Distract me with your gaze Until my tears all fade away Please don't leave Let me feel you breathe through me Is eternity much farther away than this? Please don't leave Let me feel you breathe through me Is eternity much farther away than this?

I didn't think you'd mean so much That in the end, I'd tear myself apart When you were just a distant crush We both could play our part But now we're here, without too much These empty words, so close but just too far If only I had tried to touch your hand Tell me how and why it all turned out this way Tell me if we could go back, what would you say? If loving you was my mistake But for me all that love was all the same, well How could you be so cruel and throw it all away? Look at me, pushing daisies Asking for the one true reason Look at me, constantly Clinging to a distant memory Look at me, pushing daisies I'm not ready to lay this to rest Look at me, look at me Look at me, pushing daisies How could it be we dreamed so much That we would be together till death parts? Or was it me, not you so much? But, you let it go so far... I wish we hadn't got to meet I wish I hadn't felt complete I wish you hadn't lied to me But everything's said and done Even if you said this doesn't matter You know that doesn't help at all with closure Even if you said I must be stronger It doesn't help me get to rest any better I don't even know why I'm stuck on this But I want to know why you're through with it Look at me, look at me Look at me... Look at me, pushing daisies Asking for the one true reason Look at me, constantly Clinging to a distant memory Look at me, pushing daisies I'm not ready to lay this to rest Look at me, look at me Look at me, pushing daisies Look at me, pushing daisies Asking for the one true reason Look at me, constantly Clinging to a distant memory Look at me, pushing daisies I'm not ready to lay this to rest Look at me, look at me Look at me, pushing daisies

My Impulse 04:41
What did I do to call upon these memories? What blew the fuse? How can I see something I locked Tight and threw away the key? It doesn't even matter now It shouldn't even matter now Why does it even matter now If I'm supposed to be safe and sound? I feel like going numb Now my mind comes undone Tell me it'll be alright Tell me that I will be fine Tell me it's okay to cry Tell me hope is still alive Tell me what I should be saying Tell me that we all need saving Tell me, won't you tell me I'll be going home tonight? But when push comes to shove All the answers may not come from above So why do I love To reach out so much? Tell me it'll be alright Tell me that I will be fine Tell me it's okay to cry Tell me hope is still alive Tell me what I should be saying Tell me that we all need saving Tell me, won't you tell me I'll be going home tonight? Tell me it'll be alright Tell me that I will be fine Tell me it's okay to cry Tell me hope is still alive Tell me what I should be saying Tell me that we all need saving Tell me, no don't you tell me That, "It's all a part of life..." "...Like it or not."

Infinity 04:00
Longing for Something more Breaking free What could I be? It touches me to the core What you seem ready for What I find Was a sign Within my heart From the very start But I'm afraid to follow through So I'll learn from what you do I could count to infinity And I would wait for eternities To have a space just for you and me Somewhere safe, like a pleasant dream When the darkness falls, I'll be There for you at your calling And when it's time to take our leave We'll have a place in infinity Back before Before the war The things I feared When they drew near I turned tail and ran away Felt I'd live another day But what I felt As time was dealt Dissatisfied, as if by design But then you came into my life Showed me ways to face my fight I could count to infinity And I would wait for eternities To have a space just for you and me Somewhere safe, like a pleasant dream When the darkness falls, I'll be There for you at your calling And when it's time to take our leave We'll have a place in infinity But I don't wanna wait, no more Cuz I know what I'm fighting for Somewhere in the dark, I'll be Fighting for my infinity No, I don't wanna wait, no more Cuz I know who I'm fighting for Till the day I die, I'll be Fighting for our infinity So I'm not gonna wait, no more Cuz I know what I'm fighting for Somewhere in the dark, I'll be Fighting for my infinity So I'm not gonna wait, no more Cuz I know who I'm fighting for Till the day I die, I'll be Fighting for our infinity

Suffocate 04:33
Deep breath, take the dive Don't believe that I'll survive And yet, you could carry on No death, no surprise No divine intervention could Prove you were ever wrong I cry to myself Wonder why you never helped When I needed you the most Came out of my shell Now I'm living through a hell Like I'm stranded on a coast So you dragged me out to sea Hoist the anchor onto me As you let it sink, and I barely blink I'm falling underneath you I don't wanna suffocate, no more I don't wanna hit the ocean floor Pounding in my chest, my very core My heart a safety vest, but then it tore (I don't wanna suffocate, no more) (I don't wanna hit the ocean floor) With a hold on nothing, I'll slip away Face a thousand torrents and roaring rain When it's time to face the hands of fate Know if I fall under, I'll suffocate My back to the wind Just want you to let me in All it takes is an open door Our breath, our sin Can we stop if we begin? It's a pain, that we're wanting more We say we don't mind But we're just passing the time Till we scatter or reform And I know I'm flying blind But it's just simply unkind To be stirring up a storm So you dragged me out to sea Hoist the anchor onto me As you let it sink, and I barely blink I'm falling underneath you I don't wanna suffocate, no more I don't wanna hit the ocean floor Pounding in my chest, my very core My heart a safety vest, but then it tore (I don't wanna suffocate, no more) (I don't wanna hit the ocean floor) With a hold on nothing, I'll slip away Face a thousand torrents and roaring rain When it's time to face the hands of fate Know if I fall under, I'll suffocate I don't wanna suffocate, no more But I've already hit the ocean floor Pounding in my chest, my very core I'll become the eye of my own storm I won't wait to suffocate Cuz I now control the chains Of my own fate

Pacify 03:25
What's there left to say? We've played all the games And now we're here with our hands untying It's the end of days For our little craze And we're not too far from straying far apart Ooh, do you feel the rain? The pain? The same? Right here, right now, I'm Feeling we're out of time And it's not like we can Flip the sands Right here, right now, I'm Feeling that something's not right Can you feel this vibe? (Ooh-woah-ooh-woah-oh, oh, ah-ah-ah-ah) Right here, right now, I'm Clinging and holding you tight Is there something that hasn't Crossed our minds? Right here, right now, I'm Not sure what feels wrong or right Tell me, tell me Is there a way to pacify the pain? Are we history? Were we incomplete? Is there anything left to salvage? Was it worth the things We had done for rings? But in the end, does it even matter? Ooh, it's the final seconds of us For us Right here, right now, I'm Feeling we're out of time And it's not like we can Flip the sands Right here, right now, I'm Feeling that something's not right Can you feel this vibe? (Ooh-woah-ooh-woah-oh, oh, ah-ah-ah-ah) Right here, right now, I'm Clinging and holding you tight Is there something that hasn't Crossed our minds? Right here, right now, I'm Not sure what feels wrong or right Tell me, tell me Is there a way to pacify the pain? Is there a way to pacify the pain?

Both Of Us 03:41
Everything about this moment of time Seems too familiar Caught up in a notion, "what's yours is mine" Something's peculiar Cause here we are, eye to eye, talking it out Sparks are flying non-stop But just when I thought we had figured it out Oh well, I guess not Baby, it's time we had a talk If you think you can walk all over me, no, no Baby, you'll never have it all Come on, let's work it out Come on, let's work it out But everything about this moment of time Seems too familiar Caught up in emotions, called it a fight Way too familiar... And there we are, side by side, laughing it out Sparks are flying non-stop, ooh But just when I thought we had figured it out Oh dear, I guess not Baby, it's time we had a talk If you think you can walk all over me, no, no Baby, you'll never have it all Come on, let's work it out Come on, let's work it out And maybe a glass will be thrown against the wall Take damage as collateral, oh But baby how crass you are, to have the gall To say that this was my fault After all, it's both of us, y'know It's both of us, y'know It's both of us, y'know It's both of us, y'know Baby, it's time we had a talk If you think you can walk all over me, no, no Baby, you'll never have it all Come on, let's work it out Come on, let's work it out And maybe a glass will be thrown against the wall Take damage as collateral, oh But baby how crass you are, trying to stall It's time to work it out Come on, let's work it out It's both of us, y'know It's both of us, y'know It's both of us, y'know It's both of us, y'know It's both of us, y'know

Half-Life 05:00
Stay still with me My company And let's just be Still silently Stay still with me Why must it be The roots and leaves Start falling to pieces When you leave me? Hah, stay still with me The weather's cold and The water's freezing I need support cause I cannot stand alone I'm waiting for the day The sun will shine it's rays I'm trembling, will you hold my hand One more time? They're calling me out I'm breaking down now I know I must be Causing so much grief when viewed Cutting away from thee The tears go straight to me I'm trembling, would you just leave and let me be But you came then My only friend You saved me from my end Stay still with me My company And let's just be Still silently Stay still with me Why must it be The roots and leaves Start falling to pieces When you leave me? Hah, stay still with me The weather's warm and I've started burning The town's alarmed but Not doing a thing about it I'm left there in the flames With not a single gaze I'm trembling, I've Really done it now, this time But you came then My only friend And put out the fire that Had engulfed me But you came when I was to end And almost left again Stay still with me My company And let's just be Still silently Stay still with me Why must it be The roots and leaves Start falling to pieces When you leave me? Hah, stay still with me Stay still with me Stay still with me Stay still with me Stay still with me Stay still with me Stay still with me Stay still with me Stay still with me Stay still with me Stay still with me

You Get Me 04:03
Echoes of the words you said I toss and turn in my bed Of velvet and red As you run inside my head Eroded visions of the best All which fade at the edges Each like the rest My heart pounding in my chest Reminded Oh, I don't wanna lose the thunder No, I don't wanna say goodbye With everything you do, I wonder Cuz when I'm with you, you get me, so Yeah, you could be a violet summer And you could be the starry sky Cuz if the world was falling under I know that with you, you get me so high (You get me, so) You get me so high You get me so high You get me so high Rain falls down beneath the street But no one dares to believe The smallest of dreams Could ever escape the seams Unspoken tales of underneath The city built in the sea With gold limousines Where you captivate the scene And I said Oh, I don't wanna lose the thunder No, I don't wanna say goodbye With everything you do, I wonder Cuz when I'm with you, you get me, so Yeah, you could be a violet summer And you could be the starry sky Cuz if the world was falling under I know that with you, you get me so high (You get me, so) I can't seem to let it slide Something's there between the lines I'm unaware so tell me why When I'm with you, you get me so high You get me so high You get me so hi-i-i-i-i-high You get me so high You get me so-o-o high You get me ge-ge-ge high You get me so high (Oh, I don't wanna lose the thunder) (No, I don't wanna say goodbye) (With everything you do, I wonder) (Cuz when I'm with you, you get me, so) Imagination running wild Across the ocean, miles and miles Can't wait to say, "it's been a while"

about

Looking for the physical edition?: nostraightanswer.bandcamp.com/album/syntech-0-2

SYNTECH began as a vision of my first VOCALOID album with lyrics back in 2014. Released originally in 2017 via. Groupees, SYNTECH was a blend of various sorts of electronic VOCALOID music.

SYNTECH+ is the final form of the project, paired with a follow-up self-cover / arrangement album, SYNTECH-. With new and remastered songs, I hope that SYNTECH+ and SYNTECH- will be worth the wait. Thank you for your patience, and for your support, and for your inspiration.
