WATCH – HOLE iN My SOUL

WATCH Hole in My Soul.. the latest video from cultureDef about redemption from dangerous places. Filmed, directed and edited by Luke Hansen-MacDonald of Trinocular Films, this video is a beautiful and dark visual for cultureDef's brooding track. The band plays the roles of hero and villains with a spectacular performance from Aidan Synn Pringle as the 'brutally honest' punisher, and Julia Fox as angel.

Chrysalis

Do you remember
the way that we once were?
We shared an existence
Where there was no distance
But now  you and I 
Stand on either side
Of a great divide 
So far and wide – so far apart
But once in a while when my vision gets clear
The wall between us disappears
Just like you were here

I see our love as a butterfly
Inside a chrysalis waiting to fly 
To the sky 
Our love is a butterfly inside
A chrysalis waiting to fly 
To the sky – waiting to fly

When flames become embers 
I try to remember
Feelings I swore I’d never forget 
Now we’ve become strangers
We’re losing our best 
To the war in our heads
We can’t let it go out 
Before this chrysalis sheds
Out of my dreams come desires
The wall between us 
Comes down in a fire
And the flames lift us higher
