about
Still in the dream sequence, one has to wonder if Captain Rex Vermilion has begun another lifetime in his dream state. As he laments on the heartbreak of lost love, maybe in an alternate universe, he accepts fate and begins his transition into a new journey, lifting off into space in whatever universe he is occupying at that moment.
Emotionally riveting, "a message for you.if you're out there" delves into the dark depths of heartbreak and culminates with an unforeseen epic musical twist showcasing resilience beyond imagination. The virtually unknown 21-year-old REX VERMILION (William Redway) will leave you speechless as his mastery in crafting atmospheric landscapes and singular universes within each of these songs come to fruition. Extracted from his debut conceptual album "MASTEMA." and independently released under his own record label, REX VERMILION recounts his journey through pain, loss, grief, and the inexorable forces of life that propel one's gaze towards verdant pastures and fresh beginnings beyond the realm of heartache. Shedding many tears during his writing and production process of this track alone in his studio, REX VERMILION leaves you pondering your own lost loves/the ones who got away, or even lost loved ones throughout the heart-crushing track.
Within the fantastical universe of “MASTEMA.”, the events of "a message for you.if you're out there" transpire during REX VERMILION's slumber within a cryogenic chamber, embarked on a celestial voyage in search of the utopian planet Onirique. Contemplating this alternative timeline, one can only ponder whether REX VERMILION's soul-stirring words and impassioned cries manifest an entirely new existence conceived during this deep sleep.
William Redway, the gifted 21-year-old artist from Denver, Colorado, has fashioned a genre-bending realm that will unquestionably amass a following after exploring this grand cosmic odyssey.
lyrics
I placed the world in your hand
Did the best that I could
We threw it all in the trash
But I keep it all in my head (Head, head)
I thought that our love was a miracle
Home was when we shared our breath
When you rested your face on my head
Lonely souls dissolving stress
There’s nothing more in the tank
But so much more I could say (Say, say)
There’s not a heart left to break
Was already gone before the day (Day, day)
It starts and it ends in a circle
Life does what it does best
No goggles to swim with the whirlpool
Sinking to our brand new test
I thought that our love was a miracle
Home was when we shared our breath
When you rested your face on my head
Lonely souls dissolving stress (Stress, stress)
I thought that our love was a miracle
Home was when we shared our breath
When you rested your face on my head
Lonely souls dissolving stress
Ready for takeoff
We leave here today two souls intertwined
Dead in a lonesome fire
I know there is a universe out there
Where we found our happy ending
I see it in my dreams
Where we overcame all that stood in our way
But here, in this reality, I failed you
I couldn’t be the person you needed me to be
I couldn’t save you from your pain
I’m sorry
I just wish I had one more minute with you
Just to make sure you knew
