lyrics
Etheria
Remembering the first times that you saw, heard and loved
A feeling like no other and you couldn’t get enough
But now this heavy load feels like a different kind of crush
Blurred lines between your needs and what may be too much
When you’re paralyzed
On automatic overdrive pushed too far this time
You’re hypnotized
Information overload, you strain your eyes
It’s in the way mankind sometimes acts unkind
It’s on the open airwaves talking cheap and blind
It’s every act on anger blamed on someone else’s lies
It’s burning, wasting energy while running out of time
So now you run away
Back to where you’re free
Leave hysteria
And travel to Etheria
Cut to the quick by another’s verbal blade
The temperature is rising at a furious rate
Lost is the child who never failed to fascinate
Shooting stars like fireflies can still illuminate
But it’s time to fly away
Back to where you breathe
Leave hysteria
And travel to Etheria
It’s time to run away
Back to where you’re free
Leave hysteria
And travel to Etheria

Always excited to learn and hear what Alex Lifeson does next and this is a fabulous pivot. And Maiah Wynne is a poetic vocal talent, infusing her performance with complex emotion. More please! Perchance Music & Digital Media (SM)
Sometimes I'll be listening to music and a little disappointed. "Is this it? Is this all music can offer?" This really broke that for me, and reminded me of why I love music. Thark Type Beat
