Inside 04:36
Broken, Why am I so broken? Hoping, When did I stop hoping? I slip away and I’m floating I’m sick and tired of devoting All my time in search of why I feel so empty inside I slip away and I’m floating I’m sick and tired of devoting All my time in search of why I feel so empty inside Inside, inside Inside, inside Tell me, When does it get better? Seems as though I’ll never Learn to love myself I slip away and I’m floating I’m sick and tired of devoting All my time in search of why I feel so empty inside I slip away and I’m floating I’m sick and tired of devoting All my time in search of why I feel so empty inside Inside, inside Inside, inside Ah ahhhhhhhhh Ah ahhhhhhhhh When does it get better? Seems as though I’ll never Learn to love myself

Fervent sun, I gaze upon thee Let me rest Beneath this willow tree Birds are chirping, Calling out to me Softly singing, A sweet melody Lustrous moon, Presumably empty Daylight fades, My lover has left me Birds are chirping, Crying out for me Softly screaming, A sweet melody

Bunga 02:35
Help Where did I go? I used to know… Who I was but now I’ve changed I just need somewhere to go That isn’t down this road ‘Cause I don’t know how it ends Nobody knows who I am now Not even me It’s the secret I’ll never tell I’m even keeping it from myself Help It’s raining down on me These feelings I can’t see These thoughts I can’t change Why do I have to overthink Every action every blink It’s all soon gonna flood me I just wanna be myself without wondering… If that’s who I really am I just wanna stand here and tell you what I really like… And what I can’t stand But I don’t even know myself so how do I present myself to everyone else And I say I love myself but how do I love someone… I don’t truly know They say I’ll find myself, but at the end of the day… I’ll never really know But I can’t keep holding me back ‘cause the past is the past and I need to make room to grow Grow

Unloved 03:17
I didn’t make the cut Guess I’m not good enough for you Wish I never found out Was it something I said? I wanna bash my head against the wall And hope someday you’ll like me more I’m falling to the ground, Why don’t you want me around? You always fly above, While I remain unloved My heart is hurting I hope you’re learning That what you did will cause me to break Did I do something wrong? Are you just moving on without me ‘cause I don’t deserve to have anyone? I’m falling to the ground, Why don’t you want me around? You always fly above, While I remain unloved Unloved I remain unloved Unloved I’ll always be unloved Finally realize it wasn’t meant to be and it’s alright Wish I could close my eyes and erase the past few hours of my life You know you hurt me more than words could ever describe I’m unloved, why should I even try?

Why? 03:49
Why? Why? I’m blind, But what’s the point in seeing? Can’t find, Something worth believing Why? Why? Some words, Best remain unspoken It hurts, Can’t you see I’m broken? Why? Why? Why? Why? I’m waiting for, waiting for, waiting for, waiting for, waiting for, waiting for Waiting for an answer I’m waiting for, waiting for, waiting for, waiting for, waiting for, waiting for Waiting for an answer Why? Why? Why?

about

Called Upon reflects Neptune’s Core finding their footing as a band. The EP differs from their prior releases in that it is a work full of experimentation. Spending time with Doug Malone at Jamdek Studio allowed the band to dive deep into the world of sonic possibilities. Each song is layered with all sorts of nuances. Mastered by Greg Obis at Chicago Mastering Service, the tracks are complex and can take the listener to a new level. With drums that propel, bass riffs that soothe, guitar parts that drive, and harmonies that haunt, Neptune’s Core is back with a project they’re crazy about.
The long version of the title is Called Upon (to bring it forth but unable to deliver). Neptune’s Core writes songs that come from the heart, delving into topics that deserve to be talked about. Each tune is authentic and comes from a place of vulnerability. Called Upon is about the inner journey we all must face when it comes to learning to love ourselves.
