This is a tale
Oh what a tale
Of all the things I know
Like giving up
Like breaking down
Like forever letting go
This is a journey
A hell of a journey
Away from hopes and dreams
To the deepest depths
The lowest lows
Where the sunshine won't find me
Do we dare
To venture forth
Into the black abyss
On a ship with NO COURSE
There's one thing
I know that's true
The stars won't guide me home
Right back to you
Right back to you....
Tonight
The stars
Won't guide me home
Tonight
The stars
Won't guide me home

I feel…
I feel no connection
No warmth from the glow
Stranger…
Tell me your fears?
Maybe we’re the same
Deaths hand grips our shoulders
Awake…
And counting every breath that we stole
Do we all hold hearts worn & guilty?
Our futures buried by the past
Maybe you lie wake
As I lie awake
No connection
What if we buried the past?
Could we
Just feel young while we are
What if we buried the past?
Could we
Just feel young while we are
It’s all I wanted
She feels…
No love, no connection
Dying to know
The comfort in her own skin
A stillness of soul
Maybe we’re the same
Two dreamers in a harsh world
Stranger…
Was it love that we felt?
Stranger…
How, how was it love?
How was it love that we felt?
I can’t explain
How was it love?
How, how was it love?
How was it love that we felt?
I can’t explain
How I got through the day
Stranger...
I feel nothing

Your Light Wont Guide Us

This is the death of your empty...
EMPTY WORLD
'A bone to pick... And a few to break'
A callous end, a pale horse
Your neglect will be turned against you
I embrace the fallen...
FALLEN SKIES
Your elegy will be a cut throat
I'll enact your downfall
If we reach, reach for a brighter world
We can breathe no longer robbed of hope
To worship drunks and liars
To love with fingers crossed...
Sleep medicated,
Dreams choked in the haze
Our voice will be dissent.
Our cries will be...
We embrace the fallen...
Fallen skies.
Your elegy will be a cut throat
We'll enact your downfall
If we reach, reach for a brighter world
We can breathe
no longer robbed of hope
Your light...
Won't guide us...
YOUR LIGHT WON'T GUIDE US HOME
Your light won't guide us.
Your light won't guide us home.
YOUR LIGHT
WON'T GUIDE US
YOUR LIGHT WON'T GUIDE US HOME

With My Everything

Cold Sky
Encircle this place
These four walls
Cage me like stone, they cage me
I awake unto exile
Your guilt is a chain
Embody dispirit
You sharpen the pain.
And I don't think I can find the strength
To keep the demons out
TO KEEP THEM OUT
To keep the demons out
TO KEEP THEM OUT
They take all I have to give this world
And leaves this man with no will to live
THE WOLVES
ARE CLOSING IN
And the holes
In my bedroom door
Grow larger every night
Because my fists
Can't think of anything better to break in spite
THE WOLVES ARE CLOSING IN ON ME

We Are The Streets

I've been waiting for the day
Where we put down our guns
And stop living
inside this hell
Of blood sweat and tears,
Of heart ache and sorrow
Nights spent staring at the floor
That we hate most
What if instead of
laying down
our lives
We leave this place
For a brighter day
What if instead of throwing ourselves in front of all the bullets that are coming for your head through our hearts
What if we stopped doing what we're told
How far could we go
I still feel the cold pavement beneath my feet,
Carrying me to where only it knows,
If this is all we have
Fall to your knees
And beg the world
For your lives
because all I have
Is all I see
And all I need
WE ARE THE STREETS
WE ARE THE STREETS
We're not taking bullets anymore

TIME ERASED
Time erased us,
Time erased...me
You said the waves; they melt the hours
When this town, is past dead
The ashes, of you, and the brashness of youth
Oh time erased all that we shared
Do you feel lost…
after all this growing up?
Did we change for the better?
MY FRIENDS...
Or did we just give up?
This cursed town
will bury us all...
Watch, just watch me…
Spit blood on the streets
This cursed town will bury me.
Encase me, your tragedy in my bones
You speak the words
that keep me low
Erase me, let the bitterness grow
A spiteful world will swallow me whole.
Do you feel lost…
after all this growing up?
Did we change for the better?
MY FRIENDS...
Or did we just give up?
The ashes of you, the brashness of youth
The ashes of you, the bitterness
A spiteful world, will bury me.

We are striving
Striving to reach the sky
And we are thriving
Thriving in the hell you tried to keep us in.
I never thought I'd see the sun after
having the earth ripped from under me
EVERYDAY, I DREAMED
Everyday I dreamed of being cut from my chains
Taking flight and never looking back
Breaking the cage that holds me
Never seemed possible
BUT NOW
I hold
A shattered lock
A broken key
In hands that will always be free
I hide in darkness no more
I cower to no fucking hand
JUST TRY AND STOP ME
Because we made it
WE ARE FREE
I close my eyes and feel the sun on my face
The breeze on my skin
ON MY SKIN
After so long with no path at all, I look at my feet
And what lays ahead
Because we made it
Because we made it
WE ARE FREE
Because we made it
WE ARE
Free...

And so you run
Run with the wind
And the sky still looks like painted pictures
And so you run
(And so you run)
Run with the wind
(Run with the wind)
And the end still seems forever distant
So are you where
You want to be?
Old friend
Could you believe?
We never made it
And I still wake up so low
Death and these useless things
They take a hold of me
Frail hope… my last friend…
I’m fighting not to let go
And so you run
Run with the wind
And the end still seems forever distant
Death and these useless things
They take a hold on
They take a hold on me.
And I still wake up so low
At least I still wake
You miss the coast at night
The way the waves melt the time
You miss the youth and the lust
And the friends you could trust
You see the faces age
Pack the memories away
Say goodbye to a world that left you.....
THAT LEFT YOU
LEFT YOU COLD
THAT LEFT YOU
LEFT YOU COLD
'Im still cursed
Still
Fucking
Cursed
And so you run
Run with the wind
And the sky still looks like painted pictures
And so you run
(And so you run)
Run with the wind
(Run with the wind
And the end still seems forever distant

Her Name Was (Life)
03:26
|
|

A nameless face in the crowd
A girl with dreams so high
Looking down at the street
The wind beneath her feet
Oh how I see, the beauty kept hidden away
As the rest of the world
runs against her
Like the fiercest river.
And still she stands,
Against the waves.
With head hung low
No name or place,
to call her own.
The crowd forms, a thousand voices talk back at me
"Where did she go?"
"She was here just moments ago"
"What did she say?"
"What was her name?"
She closes her eyes
As I race up the stairs
I hear her scream to the sky
"Nothing left for me here
No one to hear my voice
In this world
I've lost my place
Nothing but a nameless face"
That familiar feeling
Of floating away
The last shackle is released
Before a sharp snatch
Pulls her back
To me and I scream
"Don't leave this place
Don't give in
Be the weight that parts the waters."
"Don't leave this place
Don't give in"
She smiles and turns to me and says
"Open your eyes young man
I'm already gone
You came here just too late
You never took hold of my arm"
A bright lights stings me
As my eyes adjust
My hand remains out stretched
But in them I hold nothing but dust
I fall to my knees
My soul torn in two
There was nothing
That I thought
She couldn't pull through
But now she's gone
But now she's gone
Her name was
Her name was
Her name was life.
