Their music was noted for its raw emotion, powerful lyrics, and unique combination of instruments, making them stand out in the local scene. They eventually caught the eye of a record label, which signed them on, resulting in their first album release in 2013.

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
Em G D A
Through the darkness, we’re all alone,
Em G D A
In the silence, where secrets are sown.
Em G D A
Chasing shadows, we lose ourselves,
Em G D A
In the echo, of a forgotten bell.

(Chorus)
C D Em
Chasing shadows into the night,
C D Em
In hopes of finding the light.
C D Em
In this world undone, we continue to fight,
C D Em
While chasing shadows into the night.

(Verse 2)
Em G D A
Lost in a maze, no way to ascertain,
Em G D A
An escape from this endless pain.
Em G D A
Chasing shadows, we search for truth,
Em G D A
In the remnants, of a lost youth.

(Chorus)
C D Em
Chasing shadows into the night,
C D Em
In hopes of finding the light.
C D Em
In this world undone, we continue to fight,
C D Em
While chasing shadows into the night.
