So bright, she’s the dark light* that awakened me
She’s a shadow, she’s as radiant as day
Shadowed underneath her wings of soaring melody
Secret angel**, with a message saving me
A sweetness that’s this deep is far from quaint
The lion may be good but He’s not tame***
When you see her face she’ll say “don’t be afraid”****
Her brightness blinds you but your eyes can’t look away
And her glow proves that she’s not just one of us
She’s from heaven but she’s oh so dangerous
“Breathe”, she tells me, “take a burst of bravery”
Wings on my feet, gaining speed and unafraid
She propels me fearlessly to destiny^
Living too fast for shame to make us hesitate
A sweetness that’s this deep is far from quaint
The lion may be good but He’s not tame
When you see her face she’ll say “don’t be afraid”
Her brightness blinds you but your eyes can’t look away
And her glow proves that she’s not just one of us
She’s from heaven but she’s oh so dangerous
And we live fast, so fast
Nothing can stop us now
‘Cause we live fast, so fast
Not slowing down
(Guitar solo – Maxwell Kozen)
And we live fast, so fast
Nothing can stop us now
‘Cause we live fast, so fast
Not slowing down
(Guitar solo – Jericho Leal)

AfterWake is one of the dopest up-and-coming prog bands in Toronto, and we've had the pleasure of sharing the stage with them. TIL is melodic, bouncy, groovy, and emotional in all the right ways. KOZEN
Polarity are veterans in the Toronto prog & rock scene and they've been like our older siblings - we've played with them more than any other band. Proggy, melodic, and powerful. KOZEN
Arrowheads are our brothers from Quebec. We toured with their old band We Throw Flowers back in 2017, and their new project delivers undeniable metalcore/post-hardcore greatness. KOZEN
A powerhouse of a record from the Michigan metalcore stalwarts, full of sinister, stadium-sized singalongs and unbridled emotion. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 31, 2022
The latest Djunah LP channels the duo's heavy, intensely cathartic sound to reflect on living with and healing from trauma. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 14, 2023
