VISITANT - Briars

Briars is a story of a person who doesn’t realize they've died right away. As they figure it out, they plead that it wasn’t their time yet... and as their pleads are not heard, they realize that there is no god in the afterlife. No matter how big of a name you made for yourself... or how much work you put into something, you’ll be forgotten in the end.

The video, itself depicts spirits bound to the river. Bouncing between earth realm (woods & river) and spirit realm (Candle shots)
While mirrors act as portals between worlds

Lyrics:

All these tears
How sweet though lorn
Through the years
O’ I've been gone

Past tethered to this space
The taste of salt and iron
I beg of you to tear me
From these infinite atrocities
I carve my path through this world
Beneath the porous spines of man
Through it all I've been forgotten

Following a path of incandescence
We take for granted our time here
As panic becomes acceptance
Oh, the silence ensues
I transcend

(chorus)
I just wanted to find home
Now adorned
Briars and brush
Whispers reside in the walls
Those voices became my own
And I, a shadow of existence


I just wanted to find home
Now adorned
Briars and brush
O sun O god I’ve bled enough
Thine absence in the here after
Binds what’s left of me
To this hollow

Forgotten corridors
Bathed in ash and stories never told
Pathways to rooms, where hearts forlorn
Where Hearts forlorn

Through it all
I’ve been forgotten
A fury of existential demolition
Muted screams through a seamless veil
Oh, the air
Serried in harrow

Past tethered to this space
The taste of salt and iron
I beg of you to tear me
From these infinite atrocities
I carve my path through this world
Beneath the porous spines of man
Through it all I've been forgotten

Bleeding out yet so dismissed.
I just wanted to be a part of it
not now there’s so much left undone
Knowing now I cannot return
Please Tear me from this
