Endless Lonely

This single was the very first song released from the album a year and two days before the album itself came out, on September 20, 2022, which is extremely long of the time between these releases.
Since this song was released so early and even before all the other tracks in this album were even written, the credits on guitar and keyboards are unlike other tracks. As "Endless Lonely" was written and released before Trey Ozinga came to the band on guitar and Doug Lane moving to keyboards, Doug played guitar on this one while Tom Noir played keyboards along with vocals and bass ever since their former keyboardist Justin Thompson left the band in July 2021—two months before their previous album Fate, Wine, & Wisteria came out.
This song contains the late '80s/early '90s elemental style, and there's a quintessential ballad with chimey sound in them on top with powerful and raspy vocals typical of doom and goth rock in the beginning half before it slows down and gets more melancholy. This song is about the virgin girl who is no longer on Earth, making him lonely for so long that it seems endless, although except when seeing her as a ghost in his dream. "Endless Lonely" is divided into two cantos—"Endless Lonely" and "Voice Inside Her".
== Lyrics ==
Where Earth meets Earth
Is this it
Eternal
Golden virgin go-go girl
dancing on an upturned world
The northern star
stalking ghost
A voice that haunts
but her lips tell all that she won’t speak
A single kiss is all knowing
She’s in my head
and in my sleep
These talons sharp
Well her teeth cut in so fucking deep
I’ll never want to know release
But I’m frozen in my
endless lonely
But the all seeing eye
never saw coming
Soft spoken
or gentle hand
Quells the beast
like a child in the deep forest
An outward reach forbidden grasp
Who is this queen
to give advance
The mirror shows
It’s myself inside the looking glass
So little time so much has passed
But I’m frozen in my
endless lonely
But the all seeing eye
never saw coming
Along came the spider
with an entangling web
The voice that’s inside her
but she won’t give in
And I never lost hope
And I’ve never let go
until death do I part
I hope she knows
She knows
Time stands still
yet moves so fast
I’m so focused
and I’ve never been so sad and scared
Forever here now never there
Along came the spider
with an entangling web
The voice that’s inside her
but she won’t give in
And I never lost hope
And I’ve never let go
until death do I part
I hope she knows
She knows
Along came the spider
with an entangling web
The voice that’s inside her
but she won’t give in
And I never lost hope
And I’ve never let go
until death do I part
I hope she knows
She knows
