Beautiful Desolate

by KOLLAPS\E

We present "Beautiful Desolate" the 2nd single from our upcoming album, Phantom Centre. Its about the idea of looking glass self and how a distorted view can make your mind wander off to unhealthy places. And the difficulty to break out of that state of desolation.
