The band has the following to say about this:
”The video follows a journey where the traveler isn’t exactly lost, but temporarily negotiating with the universe about directions. The visual theme revolves around transformation and letting go of limiting beliefs.
We chose the visual element of the tunnel to signify the crossing of thresholds – What will go with you, and what will you leave behind as you move from one scene to the next?
May this song be a reminder to you that clarity rarely hangs out by the exit sign; it is more likely to show up after you’ve kept going, even when the trail fades before you and the map looks like it was drawn by a sphinx with a sense of humor.
The only way is through – and sometimes the view on the other side is worth every confusing plot twist on the way.”
“The Only Way Is Through” written by ACTIVE INTERSECTION
Vocals recorded by Kate Nord in Porvoo, Finland
Produced, mixed and mastered by Jeff Campbell at Hyper Focus Studio in Ohio, USA
Lyrics:
Art exhibition Buddha contemplating rice
Distracted by the abstract
No exit sign in sight
Choices become clear to you
The only way is through
A lonesome mountain, blue lights in the sky
I’m walking in circles, trail fades in the night
Long commute, storm warning, red brake lights
I’ve lost myself, looping in a dead-end plan
Closed mind, opening doors
Black holes in raindrops
A sphinx’s voice
speaking riddles that lock the doors
Closed mind, opening doors
Black holes in raindrops
A sphinx’s voice
speaking riddles that unlock the doors
Art exhibition Buddha contemplating rice
Distracted by the abstract
Trail fades in the night
