about

Acronyc is the second single from Nighted's upcoming debut album Absence. The track is very much a showcase for the band’s unique take on
heavy music: a blend of electronic synthwave and black metal.

Ivo Henzi comments:
“The story of this song is based on the idea that humans are one of the few species that decide for themselves on which side of the life line they want to stand. One decides either for life or for death. It is a topic with many taboos and stigmatas, and this track is a love letter to life & a poem of death.”

Marc Petralito adds:
“‘Acronic’ best showcases our core idea of playing music that is rooted in black metal and influenced by a synthwave atmosphere. We‘ve based this song on the synth lead at the beginning and developed it from there.”

lyrics

You shall be no more
Finally adrift and free
You are not fragile
Nor are you weak
I wont let them judge us
For being who we are

A love letter to life
A poem of death
The beauty in between
And the void after that
No end no beginning
For better or worse
No shadow, no light
The decision you’ve made

Voices
Echoes in our minds
A flame not bright enough for life
Acronyc
Only shining at night

A shimmering light
Weakened by dawn
The question you’ve answered
That no one dares to ask

Drifting further
Every day
Colors
Fading into grey

I could have told you
That this world was never
Was never meant
For one as beautiful as you

Nothing left
paths worn out
Acronyc
Rising after dark

Voices
Echoes in our minds
A flame not bright enough for life
Acronyc
Only shining at night
