I was blown away by the way the lyrics and the instrumentation wove together to build a world and tell an epic story for over 90 minutes. Listening to it shaped what an album should be for me—not just a collection of songs but a cohesive experience.

An early music memory:

The music store at my childhood mall had a copy of the 2-disc "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway" by #Genesis. Until then I had only been exposed to #PhilCollins' era of Genesis' more radio-friendly pop, so this was my first experience with #PeterGabriel 's more surreal work. 👇🏻

And with "Let the Waters Run", we come to the end of "The Fractured Eye" and to the conclusion of its story. We hope you've enjoyed it!

From here on out, we'll be posting some of our musical and storytelling inspirations, as well as some inner thoughts that led to the creation of these songs.

Let the Waters Run Os Antonii · The Fractured Eye · Song · 2025

The queen
She turns around and scowls
And says in olden tongues
I've come to you to ask you one by one
What have you done to pay your respects?
And why do you not mourn
When time has come to let the waters run

—"Let the Waters Run", from "The Fractured Eye"

For a While It Was Good Os Antonii · The Fractured Eye · Song · 2025

He told me, Don't believe what they say
It won't matter soon anyway
Then he said, I don't care if they pray
It's all going to end today
So drink up while you can
For tomorrow you'll be a dead man

—"For a While It Was Good", from "The Fractured Eye"

Seven Thousand Arks Os Antonii · The Fractured Eye · Song · 2025

Their faces fell to the floor
The wind was carried by their cries
And so it was told
That they'd soon leave this world
For it was me that sent them all to the source

—"Seven Thousand Arks", from "The Fractured Eye"

Garden of Rot Os Antonii · The Fractured Eye · Song · 2025

But if they ever did dare to reap
What bitter harvest would they keep?
More death and sinning
In endless cycles spinning
Find me a man of virtue
Just one, anyone!
If among the ruins he could still be found
Would he earn a place upon this tainted ground?

—"Garden of Rot", from "The Fractured Eye"

Through the Looking Grass Os Antonii · The Fractured Eye · Song · 2025

Do we know each other's soul?
Carved in time, like rock and scroll
I've heard whispers of your name
In ancient tales of love and flame
Take my hand
Lead me to emerald lands
Through the looking grass

—"Through the Looking Grass", from "The Fractured Eye"

Seraphim Os Antonii · The Fractured Eye · Song · 2025

Only you, guiding me through it all
Only you could silence my fears
And if the lion's courage
The bird's freedom
And the elephant's wisdom converge
Only you stand unrivaled in this world

—"Seraphim", from "The Fractured Eye"

I Think Therefore I Am Os Antonii · The Fractured Eye · Song · 2025

Look into the face of the man with answers
Does he see the truth through a world of blindness?
I can feel the warming sun inside my head
Glorious and weird
Profound and magical

—"I Think Therefore I Am", from "The Fractured Eye"

The Fractured Eye Os Antonii · The Fractured Eye · Song · 2025

Draw from within the power of self
Beyond the fear of failure
We shall transcend the heights of all we know
And turn it all inside out

—"The Fractured Eye", from "The Fractured Eye"

The Nothing Os Antonii · The Fractured Eye · Song · 2025

In the beginning there was a word
Before the word there was the silence
Tell me the story that you once heard
Was it a sin or was it science?

—"The Nothing", from "The Fractured Eye"
