Vanishings

by Magic Dance

supported by

cosmopolis thumbnail
cosmopolis A criminally underrated album of a criminally underrated and underexposed genre. The production values here are so authentically 1980s. A good balance of traditional hard rock, synths, and strong melodies, with a spooky yet nostalgic feel, with the songs carefully curated for a strong experience start to finish. For those lonely nights, stuck in your bedroom, reminiscing days gone by: listen to this. Favorite track: Lost [Bonus Track].

Sigma It has the guitar and synths I crave so dearly. Favorite track: Another Lost Boy.
Juan Alberto

Juan Alberto The synths, the clean sound of voices, guitars, or the quality of the riffs... or the combination of all. 80's distilled rock. Favorite track: Still Haunting Me.

You left this world in search of your own By going down a lonely road The only one you ever saw Since your life changed from the fall But you never thought it would end like this You still dream of a world that's gone Where your love just couldn't win Now you've become another lost boy Forever searching in the dark No one can save your troubled soul boy A cast away with a blackened heart And no one can save you now You're the only one who can pull you out But the rain keeps coming down You're lost at sea and you can't see out But the only pain you feel in your heart Is from that world that tore you apart I see you bleeding out Now you've become another lost boy Forever searching in the dark No one can save your troubled soul boy A cast away with a blackened heart Now you've become another lost boy Forever searching in the dark No one can save your troubled soul boy You're cast away by the ones you've loved Oh goddess of the night Take him higher, higher than his highest sight Oh please don't let him die It's the only way he can survive Now you've become another lost boy Forever searching in the dark No one can save your troubled soul boy A cast away with a blackened heart Now you've become another lost boy Forever searching in the dark No one can save your troubled soul boy You're cast away by the ones you've loved Now you've become another lost boy Now you've become another lost boy

Do you wanna dance? She says to me Showing up like an angel from a dream She made the first move Now is this what it seems? No time to think 'cause now I'm off my feet And with our eyes entwined we danced through the night And we lost ourselves in that beautiful lie That our youth would never die Through all those nights with our lives ahead of us When just the thrill of living was enough You took your hand in mine And we got drunk off the rush Will you play that song for me? The one we heard when our lives felt so free 'Cause now we see it all differently But in a different time love was our release But why don't we try to keep it alive? 'Cause I thought we'd dance 'til the stars they would die But now I know why Through all those nights with our lives ahead of us When just the thrill of living was enough You took your hand in mine And we got drunk off the rush But when that spark had faded, dissipated With the setting sun We became so jaded So tell me baby, maybe we did it better when we were young Maybe we did it better when we were young Maybe we did it better when we were young We had the world at our fingertips But it was soon lost, lost to the darkness Before we ever could have realized it It was gone, gone forever Through all those nights with our lives ahead of us When just the thrill of living was enough You took your hand in mine And we got drunk off the rush But when that spark had faded, dissipated With the setting sun We became so jaded So tell me baby, maybe we did it better when we were young Maybe we did it better when we were young Maybe we did it better when we were young

The Mirror 04:12
I can hear it in the wind A lonely sound reminding me of where I've been How my life flickered out as I fell down to that pit Now suddenly I'm standing there I'm back to where that shadow formed from thin air This reflection of me that I thought could never be That face in the mirror took my place And I felt oblivion when the other came 'Cause in that second my whole world changed What once had life then turned to grey And there I knew that I would never be the same And the way back was now erased But I swear I was someone else back then And if you knew me, you'd wonder where I had gone It's like a stranger replaced all I ever was But in downward eyes I cast a dream That somehow I would be released, disbelieved Beneath lonely ashes his figure rose above That face in the mirror took my place And I felt oblivion when the other came 'Cause in that second my whole world changed What once had life then turned to grey And there I knew that I would never be the same And the way back was now erased But I am alive And I can see the path to life Will I make it out in time? Or become frozen in the night I'll try to make it right 'Cause I'm not dying without a fight Can i reclaim what was mine? That face in the mirror took my place And I felt oblivion when the other came 'Cause in that second my whole world changed What once had life then turned to grey And there I knew that I would never be the same And the way back was now erased That face in the mirror took my place And I felt oblivion when the other came 'Cause in that second my whole world changed What once had life then turned to grey And there I knew that I would never be the same And the way back was now erased That face in the mirror That face in the mirror...

I need to believe That I will someday find a way Out of this bitter scene Out of this life that's gone astray How many times have I retraced my steps A dozen stories of regret Is it time I give in? If if can see that I need a name that can carry my passion I need a name that can tear at your hearts Things won't ever change if I don't there's no exception I'm just a flame that's looking for a spark And I wish that you could see Me out on the road and up on the stage The place where I should be If I could only find a way 'Cause this journey leaves me on my feet And pulls me farther down this street Is it time that I win? If if can see that I need a name that can carry my passion I need a name that can tear at your hearts Things won't ever change if I don't there's no exception I'm just a flame that's looking for a spark I need a name that can carry my passion I need a name that can tear at your hearts Things won't ever change if I don't there's no exception I'm just a flame that's looking for a spark Well it's out there The life you dreamed Is at your feet If you believe Well it's out there There's more to be Then what may seem If you can see I need a name that can carry my passion I need a name that can tear at your hearts Things won't ever change if I don't there's no exception I'm just a flame that's looking for a spark I need a name that can carry my passion I need a name that can tear at your hearts Things won't ever change if I don't there's no exception I need a name, I need a name

I had a dream you came to me And you promised me a new world Where love would be all I'd need And in the smokey distance I could see All the things you'd give to me, give to me It was like I was finally free But then the truth hit me again And the illusion came to an end And as I woke the darkness came back in Oh I knew that Love, love was not enough To get me through those nights To get me through those lonely nights And was it all a lie Just a dream turned to delusion Where it never was my time 'Cause this night has lasted years An endless journey of pain and tears Will there ever be an end? Or is there something I'm missing 'cause Love, love was not enough To get me through those nights To get me through those lonely nights Yeah love, love was not enough Though I reached out for the light For a way out to other the side I couldn't find my way And I never could believe in it Though in the distance was the flame Something pulled me away Yeah love, love was not enough To get me through those nights To get me through those lonely nights Yeah love, love was not enough Though I reached out for the light For a way out to other the side Is there someone on the other side? Or was it all a lie Or was it all a lie, Or was it all a lie, Or was it all a lie.

I Wanna Know 04:03
I see it in the sky tonight And I'm feeling restless now 'Cause the full moon caught your eye, somehow But I will never see the light If you're not coming home So baby tell me why Why did you go I wanna know what made you think of leaving I wanna know what didn't get you through the night I wanna know, baby give me a reason 'Cause it ain't over until goodbye And I used to hold you close Just like we'd never come apart You were the tender rose In my arms But now, we're running out of time And I just can't see how I'm gonna make it on my own So tell me baby I wanna know what made you think of leaving I wanna know what didn't get you through the night I wanna know, baby give me a reason 'Cause it ain't over until goodbye I wanna know I wanna know I wanna know 'Cause it ain't over until you say goodbye Have we come now to the end Please baby don't pretend 'Cause it's time we clear the air Why were you missing I know we had our troubles here But remember all the loved we shared Don't you give up on us now Don't you give up now I wanna know what made you think of leaving I wanna know what didn't get you through the night I wanna know, baby give me a reason 'Cause it ain't over until goodbye I wanna know I wanna know I wanna know 'Cause it ain't over until you say Yeah it ain't over until unless we say goodbye

You took your life on a safe bet And never doubted your dreams you'd soon forget But something in your past stayed frozen And that something keeps you running, running But how long will you stand for all that you never, ever really wanted? The fear keeps haunting your mind it drives you to seek another life We're only fighting the fire With all these good intentions When it comes down to the wire Will we see we're defenseless You're looking over your shoulder For a day that'll never come And now you're one year older And not a single thing was done But now that you're starting to feel so lonely, so empty in your life Will you stop trying to build that hollow shell you call your disguise We're only fighting the fire With all these good intentions When it comes down to the wire Will we see we're defenseless We're only fighting the fire With all these good intentions When it comes down to the wire Will we see we're defenseless We're only, we're only fighting We're only, we're only fighting We're only fighting the fire With all these good intentions When it comes down to the wire Will we see we're defenseless We're only fighting the fire With all these good intentions When it comes down to the wire Will we see we're defenseless We're only, we're only fighting We're only, we're only fighting…

She had danger in her eyes But under the cover of moonlight I couldn't see through her disguise Even though I've seen it all before She left me waiting, wanting more Now I roam the night Chasing a feeling that died This doesn't seem like the comfort home That I've long been waiting for But I've spent too many years In this world alone And when she seduced me with those eyes We were under the cover of neon lights And I forgot all of her lies Even though I've seen it all before There's no denying her allure I still roam the night Chasing that feeling that died This doesn't seem like the comfort home That I've long been waiting for But I've spent too many years In this world alone And if I never reach that land And I'm frozen where I stand Then your hand, then your hand Is better than no hand So take care and take cover, baby For the night is after you, calling... It's coming right for you. It'll leave those mysteries dangling Hanging right in front of you Haunting But never giving you the truth… This doesn't seem like the comfort home That I've long been waiting for But I've spent too many years In this world alone And if I never reach that land And I'm frozen where I stand Then your hand, then your hand Is better than no hand This doesn't seem like the comfort home That I've long been waiting for But I've spent too many years In this world alone And if I never reach that land And I'm frozen where I stand Then your hand, then your hand Is better than no, is it better than no hand?

There was this look in your eyes Like fire burning to take flight A distant call from the sky Beckoning you to flee the night But I cannot fathom why You would ever leave my side Forever wondering how it died And I can't shake it With your face Still haunting me Your face, Still haunting me I never wanted it to end how it did Another lover now crossed off Off the list But our time was running out And our dreams they pulled us down To another place where you were free How can this be With your face Still haunting me Your face, Still haunting me Your face, Still haunting me Your face, Is still haunting me It's gone too far tonight Let's bring our love back to the light Where it once burned so bright How can I let this die? With your face Still haunting me Your face, Still haunting me Your face, Still haunting me Your face, Still haunting me Your face, Is still haunting me Is still haunting me Is still haunting me (Still haunting me) (Still haunting me)

You spoke to me in whispers of a new world Your vision like a seer's, your promises I heard And as that day grew clearer, you claimed I'd transform You'd greet me like an equal, we'd meet the rising sun And when that dawn came, After that night I prayed, I awoke to find you gone and nothing had changed. But I waited for you for so long I waited for you in the rain and cold You never showed, so I left all I owned and searched for you So far away from home And at the end of that desolate road I reached the truth I had forever known I finally knew that I was on my own, so far So far away from home And where were you when I was falling from this earth When the shadows came and drove me farther from this world Was I fool to believe every word you said? 'Cause I thought we'd take this world by storm I thought love would win But I waited for you for so long I waited for you in the rain and cold You never showed, so I left all I owned and searched for you So far away from home And at the end of that desolate road I reached the truth I had forever known I finally knew that I was on my own, so far So far away from home And when that dawn came After that night I prayed I awoke to find you gone and nothing had changed. But I waited for you for so long I waited for you in the rain and cold You never showed, so I left all I owned and searched for you So far away from home And at the end of that desolate road I reached the truth I had forever known I finally knew that I was on my own, so far So far away from home But I waited for you for so long I waited for you in the rain and cold You never showed, so I left all I owned and searched for you So far away from home So far away from home So far away from home Was it all a lie? Just a dream turned to delusion (So far away from home) Where it never was my time (So far away from home) Was it all a lie? Just a dream turned to delusion (So far away from home) Where I never got it right (So far away from home)
