1.	Topographies - Speak Through Me 03:35	lyrics
City of god You move like an arrow through the dark To get what you want Whatever you desire City of light Love is an error in the eye Given second sight Maybe you can trust in me Speak through me now Speak through me now If you must speak Speak through me now If you must speak City of eyes Everything is quiet voices drown Emptied of sight Maybe you can trust in me Speak through me now Speak through me now If you must speak Speak through me now If you must speak City of eyes
2.	Shadow Age - The Fall 03:59
3.	Yama Uba - Facade 03:48	lyrics
This facade cracks The pieces fall The outer shell The projection wall The projection wall It’s just a kiss from a narcissist Just a kiss from a narcissist Just a kiss a narcissist It’s just a kiss Heads of the hydra Your eyes are all the same Backwards, forwards Your lies are all the same You know you’re all the same This facade cracks The pieces fall The outer shell The projection wall The projection wall It’s just a kiss from a narcissist Just a kiss from a narcissist Just a kiss from a narcissist It’s just a kiss The years have passed The slow erode Empty laughter Hollow words Deadly kiss from a narcissist All hope is lost As you tied my wrists And hoped to hell The ropes wouldn’t come undone It’s just a kiss from a narcissist Just a kiss from a narcissist Just a kiss from a narcissist It’s just a kiss It’s just a kiss

Your body is a temple In God we trust Time to punch in baby Grind the body to dust Sick enough to forget Money is a lie and we pay live And double to die And you feel it Closing in again The Circle of dissonance Circle of dissonance Circle of dissonance They keep the peace With a loaded gun If you call for help they might kill someone You can still make green From a world that’s charred And when the end comes baby The rich are going to mars

37.	Bedroom Witch - Crossing Over 03:31	lyrics
You can’t get used to us A night out is a target on my back There will never be rest for the tremors in my hands You made me play the game of crossing over When traffic is heavy, they all run over me A thousand miles runs empty As i’m dying on the concrete Will you tell me then I’m crazy For thinking I could be like you And make it over safely? You bring me nothing but pain I want out of this cloud* you’re chasing I’ve been fully reduced to the sounds of crashing Cause when you play the game of learning danger And the traffic is heavy They all run over me A thousand miles runs empty As i’m dying on the concrete Will you tell me then I’m crazy For thinking I could be like you And make it over safely? Cause when you play the game of crossing over * cloud - clout

Andhera... Darna Nahi Sannata Ghabrana Nahi Tumhare Rago main is meethe lahoo ki khushboo Mujhe mere labo par Chahie Meri Bhook ko tu mita Apne rakt or apne Jism se Tujhpar hoga haq Sirf Mera Dekh lena meri Jaan This love comes with a cost Can you pay it with your soul? I'm a parasite Dekh lena meri Jaan This love comes with a cost Can you pay it with your soul? Pishach hoon mai And I'll dance with your corpse Till there's no moon left in the sky And once, I'm done, Feasting on your... Blood, Flesh and mind Sone jaise is twacha ko Tum mujhe berang karne do Surya jaisi chamakti aankho Ko mujhe dhoomil krne do The pleasure I seek Comes with a cost Can you pay it Darling? Pishach hoon mai Dekh lena meri Jaan This love comes with a cost Can you pay it with your soul? I'm a parasite Dekh lena meri Jaan This love comes with a cost Can you pay it with your soul? Pishach hoon mai And once I've made you mine I would be your death And You would be My Life Pishach hoon mai Pishach hoon mai

about

“The Ancient Wall” is a 40+ track, double CD compilation of darkwave, dark electronic and experimental music that benefits, in a 50/50 split, medical and essential services to children in Gaza and food justice for the houseless population of our own city, Oakland, CA. All proceeds will be donated to Middle Eastern Children’s Alliance and Rogers and Rosewater, two Bay Area-based mutual aid organizations run by refugees.

We choose these two organizations and causes simultaneously because the issues that affect us are all interconnected. We believe that listening to the voices and following the leadership of those who are in the most imminent danger, and those who have survived it, is our only way forward.

The compilation is titled “The Ancient Wall” after the poem “In Jerusalem” by Mahmoud Darwish. The cover art is designed by MaryAnn Jaraisy.

It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago. modestwriggles
