Lyrics:

I’ve accepted that pain will change me
Loneliness will shape me
I’ve accepted that I will emerge
With uncertainty turned to strength

All the failures
All the pain
Can’t touch me now

Antifragile
The more I am strained
The more I can endure
Letting go of empty weight
Anger, doubt, fear, and hate

We must learn to love our fate

Empty and become wind
Releasing your dead weight
Nothing can touch you now
Once you’ve faced it in full
Empty and become wind
Releasing your dead weight
Nothing can stop you now
You don’t need, need to heal

I won’t fear it
(I don’t need to heal
I’m right where I need to be)

I am where I need to be
The world is malleable, not me

We must learn to love our fate

Empty and become wind
Releasing your dead weight
Nothing can touch you now
Once you’ve faced it in full
Empty and become wind
Releasing your dead weight
Nothing can stop you now
You don’t need, need to heal


We are scared
(We are more often scared than harmed)
We suffer
(We suffer more in our minds than in reality)

Am I who I love, or what I’ve lost?
Am I what I feel, or what I fear?
Am I my past, or my path?
Am I my body, my voice, or my name?

Only after we’ve lost everything
We’re free to become anything
Only after we’ve lost everything
We’re free to become anyone
Only after we’ve lost everything
We’re free to become anything
Only after we’ve lost everything
We’re free to become anyone

About Forever in Transit:

A focus on the journey and growth rather than a fixation on the end goal or destination. The sensation of floating, suspended in the air, never quite reaching your intended destination - carried over peaks and valleys of high energy progressive metal and complex, multilayered ambience. Armed with an ethos of artistic freedom and a forward-thinking mentality, Forever in Transit aims to take the listener on a sonic journey without regard for established convention. Led by Buffalo, NY-based multi-instrumentalist Dan Sciolino, and featuring a diverse collective of musicians, Forever in Transit creates sprawling compositions built around a progressive metal skeleton while showcasing influences spanning a multitude of genres.

Forever in Transit released their debut album, States of Disconnection in 2018, which explores how we engage with the world around us, our sense of identity and community, and how we frame our reality. Each song deals with a lapse in connection in some way. States of Disconnection was followed by an EP titled Re:Connection in 2019, which includes a compilation of songs written during the recording process of States. They plan to release their follow-up album, A Coming to Terms, in 2024, featuring returning guitarist Jeremy Schroeder as well as newcomers, vocalist Chris Lamendola, and bassist Daniel Ross. The album is mixed by Diego Tejeida (TEMIC, Devin Townsend) and mastered by Andy VanDette (Porcupine Tree, Rush, Devin Townsend). A Coming to Terms is an exploration of the process of understanding and unraveling who you are, untangling the knots of bias and attachment, and ultimately learning to unconditionally accept the person you are, as you actually are. Intricate, high-energy progressive metal passages interwoven with ambient soundscapes, A Coming to Terms offers plenty to pull you into Forever in Transit’s unique take on prog.
