Surging from the ashes
A fire left to die
Abandoned by forgiveness
No breath, no life

Echoes Fade Into Dust

Mistakes were made
Words left unsaid
And now we’re standing on the edge of death
We built our castle on shifting sands
It’s slipping through our trembling hands
It’s slipping through our trembling hands
Lean into me
And show me what you see
Share your thoughts with me
Let’s count the times I’ve failed you
Pride became our jailer
Ego was our chain
Imprisoned by regret
In a cycle of disdain
In the silence of our whispers
Echoes fade into dust
Time eroded every word
Leaving hollow hearts to rust
Echoes fade into dust
Ego was our chain
In a cycle of disdain

Nightshade

No solace in the words they claim
Only bitterness like acid rain
The right to feel was taken from me
Eyes wide open, yet nothing to see
Lead me to a place I know
And promise that you won’t let go
Show me strength I can’t seem to find
Spark the light that only you can bind
No solace in the words they claim
Only emptiness in soul’s decay
The right to speak was taken from me
My mouth is shut, it’s all too real
Lead me to a place I know
And promise that you won’t let go
Show me strength I can’t seem to find
Spark the light that only you can bind
Rain falls
Shadows call
Walls are closing in
Rain falls
Shadows call
Walls are closing in

Dead Weight
02:09
|

|
The ground shakes beneath my feet
I can’t hide, there’s no place to retreat
In this world
I feel like dead weight
What do you want from me?
Back and forth
I bear the pain from my broken home
Safe and sound
I just can’t wait to feel whole again
Praise ends where the insult begins
My body’s twitching, poisoned from within
I feel like dead weight
There’s nothing left for me
Back and forth
I bear the pain from my broken home
Through it all
I just can’t wait to start all over, new
Through the pain, the tears, the strife
I search for
Warmth, peace, the essence of life
With every step
I draw closer to me
To the person I’ve lost, the one I long to be

Aching wounds
My body breaks in two
All I wanted was to feel alive
To take away all the pain inside
Please take this pressure off my chest
And fill my heart again
Aching wounds
The noise is piercing through
In the silence of the night I seek
For peace to soothe my sleep
Give my soul another chance
To come alive
Let shame dissolve and truth appear
Exchange the words inside
Aching wounds
My body breaks in two
Dreams shared in our embrace
At journey’s end, I can’t pretend

Soft Collapse
02:54
|
|||
|
Walls collapsing, piece by piece
A fleeting dream, that seeks release
Built on moments I can’t erase
A broken frame in this empty space
Fading light in broken glass
This hollow shelter I can’t outlast
Soft collapse through sleepless nights
Where silence speaks and shadows bite
Foundations falling, brick by brick
A hollow structure that won’t quite fit
Fading light in broken glass
This hollow shelter I can’t outlast
Soft collapse through sleepless nights
Where silence speaks and shadows bite
Soft collapse
