For Too Long 05:42
I’ve lived a Iife with other souls I’ve dreamed of you all through the night I’ve lived a life that wasn’t mine I’ve dug through soil to find the roots I’ve gone through darkness and despair I couldn’t see yet it was there A swath is clearing the obscure A memory vivid and pure A ray of light cuts through the clouds It is so clear and it’s so loud I’m laying claim to this new day I’m filled with words you didn’t say I’d give much more than I could spare Now i can see once it lays bare A reaching hand out from beyond i’ll commit – resolve this bond To come asunder one last time I’ll hold your word and you’ll take mine All moving parts caught in a wake I’ll own this life that’s mine to make For too long now I searched the world for you For too long now I’ve lived a life alone For too long now i’ve tried to find the one For too long now I’ve lived away from home For too long now…

Cocoon 07:09
My head still spinning a cocoon Silk surrounds me, I feel safe My mind fights to protect me child from New stings, wounds, scars Whenever I feel drawn to you I perceive this strong bond I withdraw instead of being brave To tell what you already know Now I'm sitting here alone Even this should be me in this place Because you never guess I’m always thinking about you I am writing these lines down I could not manage to tell you You may never guess I can’t stop thinking about you My soul was wallowing in self pity My heart was longing for utopia Pattern broken by my own hands Still same stings, new scars Whenever I felt drawn to you I perceived this strong bond All the fictitious times we spent Not telling you what you already knew We've been close before Now far apart Lose each other Attract like poles In space together Seen by the moon Fall back into the void Into my cocoon

Solanum 05:24
Awaiting darkness Hovering, hiding To devour while asleep For damage and demise A sensation to dull the pain So brutal and at peace Manifest the rift between The walls I built – a recurring theme Guns bows and knifes Chasing and being chased Twitching and gasping Just to gnaw and bite The confinements I built myself A work of pristine design Evading progress and diversion Fortified in my old shell A sanction to stay sane Unagitated and at ease All obstacles that have been Now torn down – a horizon can be seen Redeeming brightness Hovering, shining A scouring dream in sleep To mend and synthesize It is not what I crave Can’t stem the tide by myself One foot stuck in the mud Dwelling in my head The bigger the pain The bigger the urge Manifesting the rift Between the flesh and mind

Säg was tröimsch i dr Nacht - u weli Tröim wärdä wahr Geng no am sueche niene chumsch a Bisch bi dir oder irgendnöime angers? Luegsch Löcher i Tili we di angere schlafe? Gäu I dere Stund verlürt d’Wäut ihri Farbe verstummt u dini Wäut flügt usem Rahme lasch d’Füess la hange über Kante vo dim Bett wones Monschter läbt, gnährt mit jedem Tropfe Schweiss u när schlottere Bei? Hä? Säg schlottere Bei? zieschs se wider zrügg und aus isch no heil? Fat d’Lampe a flackere, schatte tanze, Poutergeischt U dr Mond zergheit i millione Teili ruhige Schlaf isch für Mönsche ohni Sünde Nid für Mönsche wo zwiifle, für Mönsche ohni Gwüsse Im Morgerot lüte d’Chileglogge sturm U dr Tag ligt vordr wine offni Wunde Nume wöu scho Loub uf dr Strass ligt Isch no lang nid Herbscht Säg tröimsch düre Tag bis Gränze verschwümme wi Chride im Räge Steisch ufere Brügg unes biegesech Gländer We dini Wuet nume schlücksch wird si di frässä U we dr Wind dräit flüge Ziegle dür Gägend Si sägä z’Paradies ligt irgendwo hinger de Bärgä Bis erkenne wirsch s’ligt i dr säuber Keni gleaste Wärte, Zinse uf Liebe, Glück uf Rate Jede Mönsch i sim Schützegrabe Chöme frei uf di Wäut - o we Geier scho kreise Aber nüt hie isch i Steine gmeisslet O we us Ohmacht Wörter im Haus blibe stecke Schimmerets immer dür di wis Blau vo dine Venä Los em Sound vo Heude, Sound heilt Narbe ir Seele Sound wi Sauz ir Wunde, vereint Aus i Eim We d’Sunne versinkt lüte d’Chilegloge sturm Was ungergeit geit irgendwo widr uf Nume wöu scho Loub uf dr Strass ligt Isch no lang nid Herbscht

fading away no one tears me down every time I close my eyes endless space floating sounds every time I shut my ears evading holes highs and lows planet bipolaris firmly on the healing ground on planet bipolaris lurking in the shadows – I fight you down emerging from beyond – I fight you down prevailing upon my mind, my senses every time I pack my bags barely saved scars recede every time I’m landing there evading holes highs and lows planet bipolaris firmly on the healing floor on planet bipolaris I can see your deceitful guise – I fight you down exposed in glistening light – I fight you down a strengthened vessel coalesced from shards – I fight you down now that we have met you hold no command – I fight you down bipolaris I can see your deceitful guise – bipolaris exposed in glistening light a strengthened vessel coalesced from shards – bipolaris now that we have met you hold no command lurking in the shadows – bipolaris emerging from beyond a strengthened vessel coalesced from shards – bipolaris exposed in glistening light every time I close my ears I perceive floating sounds

Inverted Sun 05:39
Focus, relate to here and now Bury a bone deep in the ground For me to find, for me alone To strike a vein of gold Over and through the arch safe passage, the frame will hold A tree like a lightning bolt Growing from the center out A bold leap into unknown To fall without hitting the ground Repetition makes us feel A purposeful life with intent Shave off all excess To get lost in the light Down to a shape we recognize The boundaries we comprehend A blazing star is rising Salvation is now near I feel a spark inside me To guide us out of here Complete and defragmented Succumbed to the law All layers permeated Bleak and without a flaw It does not crave, it just is The creation’s never done Does not observe night and day Neither tide nor flood To shed and to become A new skin to bear This is what I will be now A bright inverted sun A bright inverted sun A bright inverted sun This is what I will be now A bright inverted sun

Yarn Of Time 07:52
Gazing stars from a midnight train The only passenger on this last ride The empty line flooded with lights from sky With rays from eons ago, sent on time Glaring at millions, eternally Feels like showered by quondam sparkles They traveled in time, they never fall But none of them will ever arrive I can see further the longer I stare Gravity suspended – floating towards the sky Untied from this earthly bond Passing through blazes of dying suns Hitching a ride through hailing gemstones Piercing the cloak of a gloaming boundary A visceral memory of what’s to come The temporal horizon just in reach Towing in the anchor Thrown forth in time Merging with the stardust Passing through bone and hide Hypersonic ions Alchemic and divine A thought turned to matter Coiling the yarn of time

about

TOUSHAR Bern, Switzerland

Toushar begins with an idea, a sequence of motions. An inkling of a start, a hint of a transition, the premonition of an ending. From there Toushar builds back or forth, until revealing its final form. Drawing from a passion for the amplitude of metal and rock genres over the last decades and an inclination for electronic soundscapes and club music serving as a foundation. Live incarnation in '23. ... more
