And I don't feel anything, just don't In this great wide open space I’ll be there waiting And the hole that gapes inside Will devour all living And I can’t feel anything at all because I fell in love with a ghost You want my piece of mind So come and get it But there will be blood And blood And more blood Where is the ocean when you need it Not to drown in, but to hear it Gently whispering dozen names Of the ones abandoned Of the ones discouraged Discouraged like you
2.
I’m entering her room with my heart Beating out of control Everything on my way is broken Like someone has been here before Step by step Into the void Beat by beat Until the end Butterflies In my eyes In my eyes And when you die Butterflies rush out From your mouth Flooding all the space
3.
You’ve been discouraged tonight Blood on the floor You’ve never felt so great in time Now you are assured That magic happens in the night In the night Tonight Your eyes are made of glass Your tears are like frozen drops of lust Beware every thought Of violence that happens in the night In the night Tonight You’ve been discouraged Tonight Discouraged Silk and satin always tears Under your hand And you'll never be afraid After such pain
4.
Her body still sings Even if she’s not dancing And I can’t resist Not to touch her once more I can’t resist No more Not to touch her Her body still sings And all the shadows are dancing And I won’t pretend That I don’t miss her already I won’t pretend No more That I don’t miss her Her body still sings As we dance in the moonlight As we dance in the moonlight

Widower 06:44
Blank face Blank eyes Blank piece of paper Blank piece of mind I’ve driven another nail in your wooden bed In my golden head I’ve driven another nail in your wooden bed Further down the stairs going up with the dawn I’m just one mile after you One minute after And don’t you dare to look back Don’t you dare to care Fix your eyes to the light To your mirror image I never saw myself in that looking glass Coffin Coughing Crying and lying Buried by beloved Betrayed by buried Once again Finding escape in the grave But this time I will chase you to the end Of the light Of the fight for this blinding light Forgive and forget those you have forgiven I forgive you For the promises For the prophecies that didn’t come true That are laying with you in that coffin I’m not surprised you don’t even care What have you've done when you had gone I’m not surprised you don’t even know What I’ve become without you You have always been this way
6.
Like whisper in the noise A white spark in the dark It’s your face in the smoke A loud scream in the noise I’ll tear apart the life I’ve got To be closer to you For you I’ll spare all the lives For you I’ll bring down the skies But this time I won’t be waiting Won’t be waiting for you You closed your eyes Forever I’m pronouncing you dead For the sake of our future Let the day when we met Never happen I’m pronouncing you’re dead For the sake of my future And the day when we met Will never happen Will never happen

Love each other...

"The album is artistic, highlighted by the sensual artwork that wraps the music inside. Its smooth edges hide the rough spikes, surprising the listener and creating an interest not normally predicted with such a release."
— Sputnikmusic (sputnikmusic.com/review/60223/Septa-The-Lover)

"It's quite evident that I like this album and those of you that are in love with aggressive forms of alternative rock and metal, will be surprised in front of a variety of sounds so well mixed. This album is for music lovers and for those that have to ability to go beyond the classic rules. The Lover is really a superb alternative album."
— Echoes And Dust (echoesanddust.com/2013/12/septa-the-lover)

"Overall, Septa are a hotchpotch of many rock and metal flavours where vocals and musical tapestry suggest various emotions, yet with a certain consistency throughout. A very good debut album by a band that we hope will get the aura of bands that inspired them (such as Mastodon, Tool, Faith No More or Riverside)."
— Prog Sphere (www.prog-sphere.com/reviews/septa-lover)

"The Lover is a great independent record. I am so familiar with the experimental prog rock showcased by the likes of Tool and Nine Inch Nails that it is nice to see something a little more under the radar taking risks with the genre of alternative rock. This really is alternative. It's not for everyone. And while it may have some mainstream appeal, it also has moments of pure aggression that may hold it back from radio waves. In my opinion, Septa is like a volatile explosive. They are just packing the powder in really tight, and in the near future I expect they will explode and quickly get recognized by a larger audience. For now though, soak in the flammable liquid that is The Lover. Try not to light yourself on fire."
— Heart the Indie (heartheindie.com/reviews/2013/11/21/septa-the-lover-album-review)

"Hard. Slow. Raw. Rough. Evolving. Unforgiving. Surprising. While not being perfect, Septa’s The Lover is a pretty good and high quality indie release."
— Happyrage (www.happyrage.org/septa-the-lover)

"Septa leave the listener in no doubt that they came to rock and I can imagine many a rock club around the UK reverberating to the pounding drums and throbbing bass lines of these songs before too long."
— Listen With Monger (listenwithmonger.blogspot.co.uk/2014/01/septa-album-review.html)

"En dépit de familiarités mélodiques et d’un chant au timbre qui ne plaira pas à tout le monde (mais auquel on s’habitue parfaitement), il y a vraiment de bien belles choses dans The Lover! Nul doute que cet EP ouvrira bien des portes à Septa et qu’on réentendra parler de ces ukrainiens très bientôt."
— Eklektik (eklektik-rock.com/2014/01/septa-the-lover)

«Это одна из немногих работ, которая хоть как-то отдает хардкором, раскрывая его идею, порой, в самых неожиданных местах. Да и занятные переходы от агрессивных и практически психопатичных моментов к лирическим настроениям не могут не привлечь внимание. В общем и целом альбом Йобырь довольно приятен, достаточно атмосферный и самобытный. Отличная смесь из пост-хардкора и альтернативы. Давно такого не слышал.»
— Sixth World (sixthworld.ru/blog/RickySpanish/33/septa---e-b-y-r)

«Что действительно стоит отметить в этом релизе, так это превалирующее количество чистого вокала, который даже на моментах перехода в некую грубость не сдавливает голову, как это часто бывает. Здесь все эти переходы незаметны и дополняют друг друга. Нескучные аранжировки, уходящие то в пост-метал, то в прогрессивный рок, заставляют уши вслушиваться и думать.»
