I was taught to read L I F E. Then to believe those letters were my life.
My name. My feelings. My “I”. Words I was told to see myself in. Everyone reads me like a book. I read along. On the stone: the same letters. Not one of them has become me.
You thought there was a life. There’s a letter. Someone else’s name in your mouth. Someone else’s words under your skin. Love on repeat: a sound with no eyes. Ceramic teeth behind hyaluronic lips. Eye to eye. Read my I.
мортал комбат
·1:21
About & where to listen
The gaze becomes the camera; the body becomes the game. “Fatality for you, brutality for me” ends a round written in someone else’s letters.
huh
E
·4:11
About & where to listen
The word “human” is stripped from the body layer by layer. Beneath names, roles, and instructions, something still breathes, remembers, and fears.
т Ы (remix)
·2:19
About & where to listen
The letters т and ы return in a different sonic form. The Russian word ты (“you”) repeats; no one appears on the other side.
астма
E
·2:07
About & where to listen
A new mask becomes a role; someone else’s words become smoke. Between letters and the body, only one way out remains: exhale.
I
·2:38
About & where to listen
The letter I arrives before the voice and takes over the body line by line. The written I no longer belongs to the one speaking.
меня
·2:13
About & where to listen
“Me” was read before it was written. Someone else’s letters describe the body; the body searches for itself outside the word “I.”
текст есть текст
·2:28
About & where to listen
The song turns body, name, love, and pain into words, while its speaker fears that the living person can be replaced by them.
имя
·1:33
About & where to listen
Lines assemble into a name, the name into a face and body. Erase a line and the letter disappears; erase the letter and the name goes with it.
Кирилл
E
·1:59
About & where to listen
One bed, two bodies, and a screen between them. The words “Kirill,” “you,” and “close” become heavier than touch.
йу ху
E
·3:08
About & where to listen
Thirty heads turn toward a body with no name; the teacher demands a signature. The room accepts a presence; the register requires a line.
я буква я
·4:05
About & where to listen
The letter I is placed on the body as a name, role, and face. The written I remains a letter; the body keeps searching for itself before words.
тут всё моё
E
·2:12
About & where to listen
The letter I claims everything around it. The body reads itself like someone else’s notebook and disappears inside the word “mine.”
за зеркалье
E
·1:56
About & where to listen
In the song, the mirror holds a name, fear, and the words “I” and “you,” while the person remains outside the reflection.
не чело век и
E
·5:22
About & where to listen
The word “human” is dismantled into roles, instructions, and labels. Beneath them, a body still breathes, remembers, and fears.
си я ю я
E
·2:00
About & where to listen
The Russian word депрессия (“depression”) splits into де / пресс / и я; сияю я (“I shine”) into си / я / ю / я. Ready-made words no longer hold the body.
ma ma
·6:13
About & where to listen
The word “mama” is called out into the void. Love, duty, pain, and the letter I arrive; the mother does not.
The plea “love me in silence” searches for the mother before sound, role, and pain. The word “mama” contains letters; it does not contain closeness.
т Ы
·2:42
About & where to listen
The Russian word ты sounds again and again. Its two letters are present; no second person appears on the other side.
терпи
E
·3:32
About & where to listen
“Endure” is a command that passes pain on: one person inflicts it, the others stand by, and the body is left carrying it.

About & where to listen
A wardrobe, someone else’s clothes, and a crack in the door hold an old fear in place. “I piss on you from above” sends it back to the one who left it there.
бал
E
·3:17
About & where to listen
Scores, advice, and ready-made rules turn into a tedious dance, playing on the Russian words балл (“score”) and бал (“ball”). Refusal strikes at the illusion of a measured “I”.

About & where to listen
“Where am I?” returns to the letter I. After the sound, a mark remains; the speaker’s place before that mark is nowhere to be found.
