    Imbalance, the 2nd album from Awakening Sun. This is a solo album of Ernest and the band itself is a one man project at the moment. Imbalance was written during Summer 2012 and on December the 1st the band entered studio to track everything but the vocals. After a few months drums were re-tracked. The vocals were recorded during April-May 2013. It took a year to save the money for album release and finally it's ready to be out!

    Awakening Sun music is quite young and still progressing and finding its true sound. I started this band in 2011 Spring without any stage or recording experience. My first album „SOLD OUT“ was written during Summer 2011 when I was 17 years old. Imbalance is next step in this band‘s evolution.

    Despite the fact that this album is a solo album, I would like to thank my friend Vilius Stašauskas, who was really big part of this album, we spent a lot of time in studio while we were writing the drum parts. Also I would really like to thank Povilas Laurinaitis for being part of this band since the beginning.

    Drums, Guitars, Bass were recorded at „Phoenix“ Studio by Gints Lundbergs.

I've received an invitation To the masquerade of life Carriage is waiting but why? Black crow brought it to me I don't even have the mask All guests arrived The Orchestra play’s playing Deaf conductor is waving his hands Soulless poet’s reading Blind waiters are serving drinks My denial’s not been taken I'm still the most desired guest The fear that I had is gone now The truth has killed all doubts of mine Why you're not letting me go I'll never give you my hand And I'll never become one I'll never become one of you You won't break me Don't even try All guests arrived The Orchestra play’s playing Deaf conductor is waving his hands Soulless poet’s reading Blind waiters are serving drinks My denial's not been taken I'm still the most desired guest And I know that it will never end It won't end Until the last day of mine It will never end It won't end Until the last day of mine

Edgewalking 03:26
It's like walking on the edge, no other way Wrong step and you are doomed to fail You're given only one chance and no tries Two ways and you must choose one No time for reflections No time One step, one way, one life One chance out of 10, so act ACT NOW! You can't win it, you can only lose Fall down and not return. Strict rules and no pity for none It's like a war where you have to survive No time for the doubts No time One step, one way, one life One chance out of 10, so act ACT NOW! Time is running out Don't waste it Don't waste your time Make right choice It's always hard But there is now way back so Make decisive step And no doubts And No fucking doubts And no fucking doubts One step, one way, one life so live it now One chance out of 10, so act act right now

Waiting, they are waiting for deliverer Of the boat that is on the other side Don't push me, I’m not with all of you, Get out from my way! I, I can't believe that I'm here What I've become? What I've become? It's not me... After every breath I realize That there is no air And I wonder how my heart Is still beating flooded with poison? It had to stop long time ago But it's still beating, it's still beating I, I can't believe that I'm here What I've become? What I've become? It's not me, it's not me! Lost in illusions I've turned away from life Temptation was stronger than the world inside me What I've become? What I’ve become? It's not me
4.
The sky is falling I can't see nothing what's above me I keep walking in unknown way The drop of blood has grown into a huge tree with wide branches The leaves of it are so opaque around only darkness, only darkness It's even hard to breathe course now pressure is too strong and I'm feeling the weakness, taste of the blood on my tongue The sky is falling The sky is falling Only once, I've seen the light but it has gone so fast Twice, I've seen the devil and I won't be back The ground that I've walked is dead and infertile The air that I've been breathing is haunting me, is choking me Choking me, I've tried to escape but how I can erase the memories And get rid of past, Get rid of my past The sky is falling The sky is falling And what now? And what now? Is it the end? Somebody tells me If only I had at least one chance To get rid of my past I would give everything To start all over again Over Again Over Again To start All Over again

Wake Me Up 04:20
In a mirror maze I can't find an exit Someone is calling me But I don't know where Beam of the light Flashed in front of my eyes All around me gone What's gonna be next? And here I am standing on the top of the hill above the sky Wake me up I can't realize where I am Dead or alive is it, the real world Or it's an afterlife. With the burning torch I'm moving forward Lightening up The way I'm walking One-armed guard Appeared from nowhere He is the key To all my questions but As I try to come closer He moves away from me And quickly dissolves As a smoke In the air At some point I felt hope But you've taken it away from me And now again everything is gone It repeats over and over again And here I am standing on the top of the hill above the sky Wake me up I can't realize where I am Dead or alive is it the real world Or it's an afterlife Wake me up Am I Dead or Alive? Wake me up Am I dead or alive? Is it the real world?

False Mirror 03:48
Why Are You Staring At ME? I'm the one in whom you have turned me I've crucified my soul at the devil's altar I lived the life that you were afraid to live You ain't better than me We are the same You ain't better than me We are the same We are the same I, I've lived the life as a moment, disbelieved in after Allowed it burn with the hottest flame and now You're trying to find me guilty You ain't better than me We are the same You ain't better than me We are the same you know what? Fuck you fuck you Long ago our paths diverged The only thing that united us is that We both were defeated You've preferred to stay aside And dream for the rest of your life While I was taking all I've ever wanted Now I'm the one who you always wanted to be Now, I'm the one who you always wanted to be Now, I'm the one who you always wanted to be...

Number 5 04:11
In the kingdom of darkness Where the emptiness prevails In the place that’s never seen the light In the place where life loses its meaning and becomes barren You've stayed there for too long Now you're ready to die Why haven't you escaped? You've stayed there for too long Now you're ready to die Why haven't you escaped? You're full of hate, Living in agony. The world around Is insanity, Chaos and mess in your head, dead memories Pain and disgust, there is nothing left what can Revive the light. You've stayed there for too long Now you're ready to die Why haven't you escaped? You've stayed there for too long Now you're ready to die Why haven't you escaped? As each story has the ending It seems like this one is close to it And if you'll try to rewrite it It's something what can't be done Ink soaked into paper and last dot is already set You've stayed there for too long Now you're ready to die You've stayed there for too long Now you're ready to die You've stayed there for too long Now you're ready to die You've stayed there for too long Now you're ready to die

You were never there and you don't know How it is when the skin falls from bone It's the way to nowhere, you're digging your own grave Sinking in, and they will help you to, they will smile, And then they'll bury you Blackened Sun has eclipsed the world, now fight for The Dawn that will break through and bring the light Bring the life back Blackened Sun has eclipsed the world, now fight for The Dawn that will break through and bring the light Bring the life No one is around you, they were ghosts who came and left Seeking for the answers,lost and wasted, in the clouds of dust But nothing is over, nothing is over, nothing is over Still seeking for the way of nowhere Still seeking for the way of nowhere, you're digging Your own grave, sinking in, and they will help you to, they will smile, And then they'll bury you Blackened Sun has eclipsed the world, now fight for The Dawn that will break through and bring the light Bring the life back Blackened Sun has eclipsed the world, now fight for The Dawn that will break through and bring the light Bring the life back

Ashen Rain 02:59
What doesn't kill us makes us stronger When the sun goes down Darknees fills horizon Gloom and cold Replace cosiness Ashen rain Covers all the surface Times change but we have to stay strong, press on, fight until the end Our faith is our strenght we won't give it away Times change but we have to stay strong, press on, fight until the end Our faith is our strenght we won't give it away I won't give it away Once upon a time The pile of broken glass Was one peace of glassware What is it now? Now it's just worthless rubbish Times change but we have to stay strong, press on, fight until the end Our faith is our strenght we won't give it away Times change but we have to stay strong, press on, fight until the end Our faith is our strenght we won't give it away We will never, give it away Never will give it away
