Dark Night of the Soul

Hope fades again
Shadows all closing in
Their whispers surround me
With a dark song of apathy
They sing of love, cancerous love
And fear, fear of the unknown
They sing of you and all of your light
And they sing of me and all I’ll never be
Black scar on my heart, a gift from an angel
I still hear her voice, it echoes through me
Her spirit moved on but I couldn't do the same
She sang of love, beautiful love
A new point of view from wisdom above
She sang of change, a change in the mind
It lifted the veil off these quiet eyes
She sang of love
Hope, hope fades again
The past unravels and the truth sinks in
And I fall back into you, back into sorrow
I’ll never forget, I’ll never forget
The empty embrace, the sun on your face, a letter home
A call of false promise, ignorance bliss, I can’t let go
A heartless goodbye, a plague on my mind, I keeps me awake, I keeps me alive
Hope fades again, the cycle never ends
Dark night of my soul
(Hope fades again
The cycle never ends)
This love, this love is a lie.

Flicker and Fade
05:38

Resist, pull away
Don’t get too close
How could the best of intentions breed all of this tension?
Torn between lost confidence and lust, cloudy dreams and broken trust
I tell you that I’m sorry but it won’t change a thing
Resist, Pull away
Don’t get too close
I reach out, you open up, your petals all aglow
You let me peer into your soul and I burn you, I burn you
Confusion in full bloom
Flicker and Fade as you wither away
Roots burn black as your trust turns to ash
You say give up, give up, give up, give up
You cry give up, give up, give up, give up on me
I am fire, please forgive me
Blossom Slowly now, let’s start anew

Inertia
04:40

I know I’m onto something, I can feel it
Words can’t explain, but I need it
Endless Inertia, welling up inside
Silence these thoughts of logic and reason
They tangle you up and leave your dreams bleeding
All this inertia, impulses burning wild
Take me spur of the moment
Awake me with pure inspiration
Always making something out of nothing
Take me spur of the moment
Awake me with pure inspiration
(Take me)
Inertia

Rain

The tears of God submerge the night and lull us all to sleep
Or maybe it’s just rain, just rain
Desperate words collapse the walls inside you head and let the pain in
I know I’m to blame, to blame
Summer’s coming and who are you?
Summer’s coming and who are you now?
Fates align to face the blackest tides, my emotions all collide
Fates align in the darkest times, a second chance to speak your mind
Soft touch, the petals of a rose, grows cold as you move away
There’s nothing you can change, change
Sunlight crashes into you and ignites your empty eyes
Or maybe you’re the same, the same
Summer’s coming and who are you?
Summer’s coming and who are you now?
Fates align to face the blackest tides, my emotions all collide
Fates align in the darkest times, a second chance to speak your mind
Maybe it’s just rain, but I feel it all the same
These demons arise for a reason
They give us something to believe in
(It's just rain...)
I feel it all the same

Gaze

Gaze into sun
Breathe in her colors, you’ll become one
An inferno in our eyes
Infinitely inward our souls combine
Waves surge through my mind
Awaken my spirit and wash away time
Cascading in slow motion
The misty air, a waterfall
We raise our hands to the sky
And shout aloud that we're alive
We are alive
Off the beaten path we climb
An inferno in our eyes
Infinitely inward our souls combine
(Racing down the mountain side, I feel God)
An inferno in our eyes
Infinitely inward our souls combine
(Taken by the moment, we're high above the world)
Hearts ablaze, face to face
Dreams all flutter and fall into place
And I gaze into the sun
I breathe in her colors, we become one
Gaze into the sun
Breathe in her colors, you’ll become one

21 Days

Sold a koi fish to a broken man
His face lit up, he extended his hand
I smile and go on my way
Got cut down in a parking lot
As daylight fades there’s poison ivy in my thoughts
Her vines pull me in
Her voice like the wind, her heart a Rose
Wrap me up in my mother’s arms
Hold me closely
You close your eyes and I melt away
We look out above the fog
The ocean below, a deep blue whisper
Three weeks ago I didn't know if I had a life worth living
You share your heart and then I start to think maybe I’m not alone
Her heart a Rose
Wrap me up in my mother’s arms
Hold me closely
You close your eyes and I melt away
Breathe out slowly
21 Days, 21 reasons to stay
It’s been a lifetime away, now I’m coming home
Break the cycle, don’t look back
(A new beginning, a new beginning awaits you)
21 Days, 21 reasons to stay
It’s been a lifetime away, now I’m coming home
