In the darkness they stand, watching me, stalking me Without ill intent it plagues me like air-borne disease Slowly takes over my mind is weak, heart racing One by one the voices fill my mind I need some sleep Tick tock goes the clock I can’t take it, can’t face it If it takes a shot to set me free, so let it be Seconds left, the voices scream at me, taunting me One last breath before I end this curse, this misery Let me, let me  Go into an endless slumber Help me please stop the voices Let the silence drown out all the noise So I can see Put me in an endless slumber Save me please stop the voices Let the silence drown out all the noise So I can hear myself

One step, two step over here Can you see me? One tug, two tug I am near Feel me One step, two step, I am gone Back to my place One tug, two tug, I am back Did you miss me? I have come to play Wake up while everyone is still asleep I want to see your frightened eyes Your fear feeds me Just you and I Ghost of 212

Fight 04:44
I fight But nothing’s going right Everybody’s out of their minds In this place I’m living in, everything’s so dark I kept falling down repeatedly, but they told me it’s not hard I see everybody struggling to be sure they are surviving With a piece of bread in their hands, but hope left behind I prayed to God to show me some enlightenment But again and again, I kept seeing disappointment At times I had a dream to be living in a garden A place that looks like Eden, but I end up with a serpent I fight But nothing’s going right Everybody’s out of their minds I fight For someone to shine a light Get me out of this life I know there’s someone out there who’s hearing all my cries Put me out of this hurt, cos I will rise Is this all I’ve got?

Memory 03:53
Don’t make me hold on to these broken lies You said to make believe All the promises you said were empty words It doesn’t mean a thing Stop begging for that chance to take you back I got to disagree Thought I saw my destination but now I see It’s just a smokescreen I’ve lost my empathy For your twisted blistered perturbation Keep it to yourself Don’t get me involved in your hallucination Emancipated from The prison of your sick obsession My life is liberated Without the cuffs of your objection Memory Why did you keep these worthless Memory Why did you keep rewinding Memory Let me just burn it all away And let me break free
5.
Wanderer 04:02
Streetlights, the cold across my face, I breathe in Footfall, I fill the empty streets in my heart Grounded, I find myself I’d gone astray Tell me where do I go, how do I find my way? Frozen, the snow within my blood Twisting, swirling, falling, it’s blinding me The world hiding from my eyes I’m leaving, the cries of merchants fade behind me Sanctuary, the only world I know I’m lost I’ve floundered I find myself I’d gone astray Tell me where do I go, how do I find my way? Frozen, the snow within my blood Twisting, swirling, falling it’s blinding me The world hiding from my eyes Let me run into the light Away from the darkest night Follow my heart Sunlight shows me where I am to go Let fears fade away Follow my heart In the wind I see my desire I must go now I see a way
6.
Your silence is deafening to me Like nails hammered through steel walls And why would I deceive myself To please the one who’s causing me pain The black parade is over And all that’s left are smiles and laughter from Empty houses and photographs of Things that were never there More, I want to see you laughing, believe me More, I want to see you crying, receive me Seek out those who hide themselves And free them from the circus of contempt and purpose And why would you deceive yourself To be someone that’s causing you pain No more

about

What ghosts from your past continue to haunt you today?

After a period of intense growth, Sangriento emerges with our first ever EP Ghosts of the Past! This album captures the pulsating sound of Sangriento, which is known among the local J-rock scene for delivering the most electrifying live performances.

Three years in the making, this EP explores the tensions in our pasts that shape us today. It begins with a neo-classical meets metal number, Inner Conflict, which is a snapshot of the crazed cacophony of voices in our heads. Ghosts of 212 is inspired by a true ghost story that happened to the band, as we playfully reimagine the thoughts of this haunting spirit. Fight takes a melancholic turn, and this song is dedicated to all who has ever struggled in darkness. Memory is an ironic combination of gleeful melody with irate lyrics – a contradiction not uncommon in precarious relationships. The album pushes to a climatic finish with Wanderer featuring a memorable chorus that everyone can sing along to. In the final track, we come full circle with Circus, as it represents the starting point of our songwriting adventure.

Come, embark on this journey with us as we bring you the Ghosts of the Past.
