Welcome To 00:40
It's dark soon and my fuel light's on The road is desolate and I'm driving into a storm The moon hangs low, it's like she knows It's time to go, it's time to go Time to go home

Idyllwild 04:52
On the road In a town called Idylwild It’s bumfuck California The sun’s so bright it bleached our bones It’s dark soon and my fuel lights on And I’m driving into a storm, I'm driving into a storm Ohhh take me down to Idylwild Lay me down, lay me down by the fire Maybe this is crazy but I feel like I’m home When the night arrives we walk along the rolling stones The moon lights up the colours of the dark I just wanna go where the old wind blows In the old town nobody knows Take me out there Idylwild I just wanna go where the old wind blows I just wanna go where the old wind blows

Tonight, I just remind myself it’s just me and you And I find, I’m in a sea of light It sounds like a fantasy but this man of mine he’s got me, got me It’s like a Hollywood dream and I feel just fine Ohhh when he’s not around he’s running riot in my mind In this moment under the liquid sky, it’s got me high He’s like a movie star but instead he plays the guitar It sounds like a fantasy but this man of mine he’s got me, got me It’s like a Hollywood dream and I feel just fine Ohhh when he’s not around he’s running riot in my mind

Atlantis 03:33
We reached the shore at twilight As the day weds the night, You paint the sky I’ll find you, Atlantis Under the water Kingdom sank in a night and a day Into the ocean that rests in my chest I wake and wonder where you are My sweetheart thy time has come to fade to black I’ll find you, Atlantis Under the water Kingdom sank in a night and a day Into the ocean that rests in my chest How can I fight when I’m broken myself How can I fight when I’m broken I’m broken How can I fight when I’m broken myself How how how how
5.
Keeper of eternal youth moves in cycles of the moon Lips like red tulips, locks down to her hips She moves, oh how she moves It was twilight, it reminds me of a day It was quite like this, as the sun begins to fade She wanted me She dragged me down the stairs Dragged me by the hair Next thing I know, I’m dead Next thing I know, I’m dead Shalalala, don’t take me down there
6.
I go where the wind blows, it’s simple, sinful Last night I had another and I wept for you But I know what’s coming my way Heavenly eyes To pay homage to the fire Yeah I know, what’s coming my way Heavenly eyes I’m taking the easy way out, I’ll drive until you disappear Your deadened eyes staring back at me in the review mirror But I know what’s coming my way Heavenly eyes At first I was afraid of rolling in the dust you left behind Nights come and go and I’m alone figuring out how to love myself again But I know, what’s coming my way Heavenly eyes To pay homage to the fire Yeah I know, what’s coming my way Heavenly eyes I’m taking the easy way out, I’ll drive until you disappear Your deadened eyes staring back at me in the review mirror I’m taking the easy way out But I know what’s coming my way Heavenly eyes
7.
Its a memory with no home It’s an enemy with no gun And the wind blows right through my bones And the moon burns redder than the sun But the pain still lingers Yeah my heart it’s yearning for your love It’s a melody with no rhyme It’s eternity without time It’s a tragedy with no crime It’s a fantasy just not mine And the wind blows right through my bones And the moon burns redder than the sun But I thought that you were special I thought we were forever You’re gone forever I guess you’re gone forever now I have nothing to fear You mean nothing to me I have nothing to fear You mean nothing to me anymore

I Am Stone 03:01
Every now and then I think about you Every now and then I lose myself You resembled the sun When I went to undress you, you were gone In my mind I have fallen to pieces In my heart I am stone I dream we’re together With you right by my side Every breath that you take Every move that you make Every word that you say It’s all mine, all mine In my mind I have fallen to pieces In my heart I am stone
10.
Came down to the waters edge, unsure how I got there You were bright eyed and high on fire water A sight for sore eyes in the emerging dusk Oh a sight that makes me want to rock and roll Oh whether it be the aroma of your dirty soul Or the thought of just losing all control You put me under your spell And we fly by the night Lost sense of what’s right we held it together through the night Oh and when that day dawns I’ll immerse myself in your majesty Smashed glass sweet melodies Tumultuous symphonies And we fly by the night We lay on the floor in utter defeat No room for pretending what might one day be And in an attempt to exit your claws I climb to my feet and I pick up my soul Little did you know oh Did you know I held a loaded 12 gauge Im not afraid you mutter to me Oh please, you don’t fool me Bang bang you are fucking dead Bang bang you are fucking dead, in a bank Dead to me

Can We Dance 05:24
Since before I felt the burning imprint of our sun I've had a question Why must we silence our questions? It's like god made a mess and I'm there in the lair sipping wine You come along, there's a beautiful song and you ask me to dance, you ask.... Can we dance under the sunlight, till we dance under the orb of night? Now I know what I know isn't right and so I'm gonna challenge these lies Let's dance to a tune that rings true to us, let's dream up a life that makes sense to us So we play our own game and stay up all night drinking wine Now take my hand as you ask, hey hey hey.. Can we dance under the sunlight, till we dance under the orb of night? See it now clear as day It's like corneal flash burn to my eyes My mind's a weapon and this wine gave me courage to speak You're a dreamer and you're high Don't you ever, ever, ever forget it

about

Eyethewild are a rockin' 4 piece band from the sun-drenched city of the Gold Coast, Australia.
With several members of the band having backgrounds in the Extreme/Tech Metal scene, one would be forgiven for expecting more of the same, but Eyethewild are a very different animal.
One which respects the art of the song and one in which lush vocal harmonies and polished arrangements happily coexist with power chords, blazing solos and shifting time signatures.

Front-woman Astrids' captivating voice ranges from the sublime to snarling.
Her lyrics delivered with sweetness, sorrow and sometimes a little spite.
The bands' sound is steeped in the glory years of Hard Rock, it has a familiar, retro vibe but with a modern, progressive twist that keeps the listeners' ears engaged.
Over the course of 11 finely-honed tracks, Eyethewild draw from a wide variety of genres including Folk, Prog and Metal to fuse their own sound - their own 'Colours of the Dark'.
