spring day blue as youthful tears 2004 2015 a soft crystalline river, soft to touch, soft crying eyes and soft whimpering voice alone in such a small place in such a big way hoping for your sophia hand i want to be mid 2000s spring day of a delicate soft sun as burning as our perfect smiles perfectly dreaming and playing in the grass green as the coloring mind bright as youthful feminine laughter i want to be this happy and be beyond time beyond tolerance and brimming in purity i hold a little light in between my hands as you fly i wish upon your fluttering magic let me find the angelic touch and please be happy please be happy please be happy damian i want to be happy

Bring me to the water You are not to blame I love you and I am sorry Castles in the sky are bound to fall one day But they won't rob me of my joy I will protect myself, this child within me There is a forgiveness I am yearning for But I understand if I never hear it We will eventually let go of this pain that we carry This is the sound of a love unprecedented Bring me to the water I love you and I am sorry

about

Ataraxy is the first collaboration between atmospheric black metal act Sadness and experimental screamo/post-rock band To Be Gentle. Together, they weave an eclectic blend of black metal, screamo, emo, ambient, noise, and even elements of shoegaze from time-to-time.
The project proves to be a monumental milestone in each artist's respective catalogues, as well as a powerful offering that beautifully converges the conventional tenants of black metal and screamo, while simultaneously crafting a multi-faceted, genre-defying sonic universe and expanding it outward. Sadness and To Be Gentle take the foundation and frameworks of each other's sound and build them, ultimately, into a pure catharsis.
