Understars 01:04
When it’s cold outside and lorn And you feel alive and warm Today is an old slumber
2.
Two flames as one In light entwined become A blaze into the sky And for all that disappears We return to love again We fall into the light Into an endless sky If we can fall, and fall shining brightly We will be as one And ignite once again Feel the light that comes to you again Let it burn through your veins You’ll open a door to forever If you look beyond the sky Into the stars that shine And to the edge of time The light unites us forever And will always be here Shining bright inside us Maboroshi Kanata he yuku Maboroshi Kiete yuku An echo rings out clear For all the world to hear Illusions are only born to die So embrace the end This was meant to be So breathe the light inside And feel electric skies Hold on for all eternity Be all that you are You’ll see through it Feel the fire That burns forever

Fall Apart 06:40
You showed me a place Where I could see your peaceful light in me Once I fell for you I was so sure I was home And while there was no compelling reason to go I left my life and fled Beyond what I knew so well before So sorry I didn’t know what would be become Of my design for love It’s not what I wanted to be for you Now there's naught we can do But concede that we're through And watch as we fall apart So I leap to my exalted state Remain here in solitude And I try to calm my plaguing doubt So when I leap from my exalted state You won't be here to interfere and Carry me away from my epiphany And we can fall apart But I know you weren't meant to see The reason I had to leave While you were only standing there I was fading away from you Although I honestly Had left behind what tortured me Some things I am unable to deny So I leap to my exalted state Remain here in solitude And I try to calm my plaguing doubt So when I leap to my exalted state You won't be here to interfere and Carry me away from my epiphany And we can fall apart What you don't understand is how I tried to contain it all for you And lacking expressions Of passion, of hurt, of hope and pain We'll live our lives in knowing That our minds are always alone So I leap to my exalted state Remain here in solitude And I try to calm my plaguing doubt So when I leap to my exalted place You won't be here to interfere and Carry me away from my epiphany And we can fall apart So I leap to my exalted place Remain here in solitude And I try to calm my plaguing doubt So when I leap to my exalted place You won't be here to interfere and Carry me away from my epiphany And we can fall apart

Indigo Night 03:55
When the night Begins to turn And you feel a timeless burn Call out, the sky will open Follow it now, the indigo in your eyes   Come with me Into the night Beyond the sky where we unite Beyond the stars Is where I’ll be Look into your mind and you will see You’ll find the secret Through your heart With the light, the flame You hold within you Go beyond this illusion and see When the light, the flame Burns around you Let it burn and your heart will be free So feel it move Into the light To another world where we ignite You hold the secret Through your heart With the light, the flame That burns within you Go beyond this illusion and see You are one with the light And love surrounds you Carry on and your heart will be free (Carry on and your heart will be free If you open your mind you will see)

Mirror 03:00
There’s no sense in my delusion And I’d lost where I belong Then you showed me my reflection That’s when I recalled the truth You’ll say Where were you? I was always here How long How long Until we see the light I’ve made sense of my conviction And you let me sing my song I can only hold this vision Like a torch to find the truth I feel you Mirror of my soul It’s enough to pull me through I’ll know I’ll know What we came here to do I’ll know I’ll know What we’re here to do Is be the light
6.
Breathless 03:47
When the rain comes in time Falling down on my head I feel your soul in mine Then it comes The sound of silence in my head I think of you and the signs Start to fall in line But it’s only a matter of time Until I come to you now And feel your heart in mine Though the answer is burning through What am I to do now? With words hidden by pride The makings of my mind Feel me breathless one time Soaring out in the sky To feel our souls entwine   But it’s only a matter of time We’ll wake up from this dream now The time to part is nigh The light of the sun Steals away Moving the edge of Your heart at bay And I miss you But how does it feel To find your way again Through your reflection The rain falling down Through my soul again Then it hits me And it feels like a fire High in a flame that comes alive And it’s only a matter of time Until I come to you now And cross the borderline Where the answer will come to you And lead you to forgiveness And there we will decide To let it go
7.
In time, days will dissolve And fall out into nothing And you'll find ways of imploding All heartache and mind ties And I know I should be grateful Still, I find I long for what I can't have anymore Where did that love go? Through the odyssey Will we return to join the light? Fire of the Sun Through the endless sea High above the ground Should you find that you can only Awaken through closed eyes Gaze out, observe the waves of stars Falling when you rise And I know I should be grateful Still I find that I fall by the wayside (But you did not seem so far away!) Where did that love go? Through the odyssey Will we return to join the light? Fire of the Sun To the rapture High above the clouds When you return to the elements And find that the earth moves beneath you And you feel you're surrounded by stars Wide and deep and distant You will find that, as with love The universe is infinite

Love Returns 05:27
Wake up slowly What is this dream? I forget who I am Feel no borderlines And the earth stood still Slowly floating through time That waits for none But I hold fate in my heart Feel no borderlines And time stood still Slowly coming untied Through this dream Dissolving into who we are The way to be Purify what I feel And then wait for love Feel no borderlines And hearts stood still Slowly turning through tides That spare not one But I will wait for our time If you feel The pull of me It’s always real I am here You’ll always be A part of me And all these signs Will make sense I’m dreaming that I’ll Soon arrive But I fall far away You move me I’m waiting For the time we will be Free to love again Wake up slowly And still I’m here I remember my way

about

Written, produced, and performed by Ananda Jacobs.
The first of three volumes of songs emanating love as connection to the universe, and threads of energy to one another. Nostalgic pop mixes with deep underworld tones for an ethereal and mesmerizing aura of emotive sounds.

Based on her own spiritual experiences, “Songs of Love, Death, and Transcendence Vol. 1” encompasses themes based on deep inner realms, love, and soul connections.
The album is Ananda's self-produced work in which she composed the music, wrote the lyrics, and assembled the tracks for all songs.
Deep electronica, synth pop, industrial and dream pop-infused rhythm tracks resonate with pastoral soundscapes of strings and theremin, all embraced by a downpour of sublime vocals.
The lyrics, interspersed with metaphors on eternal love and one’s inner self, point to the soul in a state of revelation, gently enveloping and inviting listeners on a meditative spiritual journey.
Feeling deep love, feeling the light within, feeling the connection of souls, feeling the Earth as if gazing down from the universe, all boundaries disappear and one is released.
