I’m searching for clarity
I cannot seem to find my way
I’m held in captivity
A prisoner of the mind
My rage is a symphony
I cannot seem to comprehend
Your captor’s mind
He lives inside of your head
Fight life and limb
They sing the song of the dead
Come now
Leave this padded cell
Choose now
The tale you wish to tell
I feel a new energy
My feet have longed touch the ground
A wave of serenity
I’ve found a way to live again
Its okay to be scared
You’re facing the unknown
It’s not your choice
It's not your fault
But make with this your own

Shadow in a New Name
04:08
|

Crawling for the light
Mouths are full of sand
I can do this all on my own
This pit is my home
I fall back down
This endless pit, it grabs so tight
Pulling me under
This blackened heart, repels the light
Fighting for nothing
Don’t try to save me
I’m so close to death
Please be my scapegoat
Come not to wager
But be met with debt
Drain me of my passion
I am so sick of hearing
What’s possible
I am fine
Where is home, if not down here?
Push and pull, no God, no fear
Only in peace have I seen hostility
Violence, growth, one in the same
The light that comes down in to save me
Is just a shadow in a new name
Blinded by light
Grown used to the darkness
The shadows betray you
You belong to me
This endless pit, it grabs so tight
Pulling me under
This blackened heart, repels the light
Fighting for everything

World of Fading Light
06:07

Wander out at night
World of fading light
Disconnect from your world
Find what nature holds
Wander too close to the edge
Cliffside starts to crumble and drop
You vanish from my eyes
As you begin to fall
Search teams lose all hope
Nothing left to find
I wander out into the night
I scream your name into the sky
Let me bring you home
Let me bring you home
Finding you will be my life
Now i know you're gone
Let me bring you home to rest
Reaching out
Falling off the edge
Reaching out
Let me bring you home to rest
I wander out into the night
I scream your name into the sky
Let me bring you home
Was she even real

Who We Are
04:37

I see the storm approaching
Tomorrow in our hands
The arrow leaves the bowstring
A parting at a glance
This time I hold my breath
And I know who we are
I see who you are
This time I hold my breath
And you let me in
I know who we are
I see who you are
You are To me
Without this
I feel my heart knows
Coming to terms
And out of the shadows
Understand me
Align with us
Together
Two fades into one
I know who we are
I see who you are
You are to me

The Drowning
05:01
|

Lost in words, I cannot speak
Lost in time, I cannot see
I’m frozen here
These empty bottles
Haunting me
I lie awake
There’s only so much I can take
I’m lost and all alone
This place is not my home
Lay your weary head down one last time
Let the feeling die
Look at you
I’ve got you where I want you now
You may have bested me this time
But I hope you know that when you wake
I’ll try again
I’m lost and all alone
This place is not my home
Lay your weary head down one last time
Let the feeling die
Don’t hold your breath, I’m all you need
Come back to me like your need to breathe
You cannot leave, you belong to me
Please don’t go, just drown in me
I wish you’d sing to me forever
But I know you’d hurt me one last time
Pick up the pieces of this mirror
Cut me, I’m alive
Let the feeling die
I’m lost and all alone
This place is not my home
Lay your weary head down one last time
Let the feeling die
Now my head is clear for the first time
