Our final single of 2012 introduces Ral, elder brother to Venna and Asa. He is their protector and guide through the smoggy surface world - lighting their way in the dark. He loves his brother and sister, but falls prey to his own ambition. And in a moment of violence, he leaves them behind.
Ral discovers a glittering new world and is presented with a choice - does he press on and realize his own dreams? Or risk it all by going back for his siblings, returning to the dusk?

lyrics:
I look trapped
And in your eyes, sister, closed off to the world
Take a chance and join me. Witness marvels gaze upon thee
This could be yours, this and something more
Ooh... ooh
Ooh... ooh
You're selling yourself short, girl
Close your eyes
See the shapes before you dancing with the light
Let them take you someplace, whisper secrets only they can tell
Don't keep them inside, let them be your guide
