"Waking from an undetermined period of sleep, Jason finds himself face to face with a younger version of himself. His younger self has grown fearful of a shadowy figure occupying the depths of a painting hanging in the library."
Narrator
His dreams they were eventful
But didn't seem to offer much
Awakening to the sound of a young boy
Tapping him on the shoulder
Jason
You are me... Are you me?
Young Jason
Yes I am, I am you
Narrator
In the library many years ago
A painting hung above the fireplace
His father would make the world look bigger
In the landscapes he would paint
Young Jason
And now it's changed above the fireplace
It's come alive and you must see
Within the trees there stands a man
In darkness he's concealed
He climbed into the frame and became a part of the scenery
Now he waits and watches me
You really have to see
Narrator
And he remembers how his father painted the picture long ago
And the man in the frame had he always been there?
Standing on his own
Jason
Wish me luck I shall try to climb inside
In the heart of this picture I'll reside
"Jason climbs into the open painting."

Impressive music and inspiration
Loved the first EP , loved the concept and the theme.
I managed to order the digipack
