Comfort Pain 09:37
lyrics
buy track
Comfort pain A biting wind, cuts ominously in Ah ah ah etc Shadows merge within, the day begins to dim Ah ah ah I want to feel the pain of past times I want to re-live all our worst nights But you moved on, all our memories are gone I stand cold, and stare, as dusk turns to dark Don’t ever pray for me Don’t ever change for me You can take it out on me Just be there for me A frosted pane, the breath exhaled Ah ah ah The fondest trail, the comfort pain Ah ah ah Someone else living my life You whisper words, that were once mine But they don’t know, the fear you brought home The pain ebbs and flows, as I move through the smoke Don’t ever pray for me Don’t ever change for me You can take it out on me Just be there for me A biting wind cuts through my life Whispering shadows merge by firelight You brought the fear home, it lives on and on and on And the flames start to grow, as I pass through the smoke

Relic 07:04
lyrics

Relic Warm nights, good times See the sights, get high Leave for, a long drive Far from it all Birds dive, flags fly I see you, feel fine Friends for a short while Walking out tall Frost bound, moonlight Warning, plain sight Break on through, your mind? Losing it all Drift-free, inside Blinding, low light Someone, you can’t find Now lost and small A relic of our past, today Sits alone, his mind has gone astray Beats himself, the familiar face The thoughts and people time displaced And everything keeps moving on Nothing stays, not for long You, my friends, gotta keep it strong Remember the good times, keep holding on Dark nights, tough times Warm glare, head-lights Cold bed, street side No one will talk Obsessions, pastimes Bare-faced, fresh lies Search for a friend, blind Shoulder my fall A relic of our past, today Sits alone, his mind has gone astray Beats himself, the familiar face The thoughts and people time displaced And everything keeps moving on Nothing stays, it’s all gone wrong You, my friends, gotta keep it strong Remember the good times, keep holding on A relic of our past today Loves the things you packed away A relic of our past today Wants all the things you’d rather stayed away

Stuck A While With You 06:28
lyrics

Stuck a while with you Before you wake A feat of will The bones they wait The brain is still That loving face You long to kill But all you taste A bitter pill Help me, I’m calling Through the fog to you Catch me, I’m falling Don’t know what to do Sunshine, moonshine Make the world ok Love-wide, bright eyes All the time we waste Those funny games We played through and through Now there’s just a rage Cutting through the blue Memories they fade Long before they’re due Wishing time would stay Stuck a while with you Help me, I’m calling Through the fog to you Catch me, I’m falling Don’t know what to do Dark shadows taunting Someone I once knew Merciful haunting Brings me back to you

Where Were You 02:14
lyrics

Where were you? Their opinions pierce Your brain, it bleeds Never welcome here You must break your genes Deny your, pleasure Let us come inside No more, pressure Take us for a ride Belonging here You have no fear Release your tears We’re all you need Aim to, break through Stuck before I tried So hard, seeing you My heart just want to cry But where are you? Are my eyes still blue? Do my thoughts sound new? Can you hide the truth? Harsh rules, life glue Give yourself some time Forget who, needs you True to what’s inside So where are you? Can we have a drink or two Were your thoughts ever new We’re here for you

The Clear Blue 04:00
lyrics

The clear blue You, accept the mysteries of our world And you, long for life that’s simple, and a girl Now lose your head And move yourself Come to the shed Consumed with dread One more day A picture of hate An American plague Our golden graves Can you See through The clear blue Me and you True, expression pushing through our bounds Two, impressions captured in the sand Now be yourself Remove all sense Cut through the fence Resist the regiment One fine day We find our way together as slaves The world turns a day Can you See through The clear blue Me and you

Take Them Down 02:33
lyrics
buy track
Take them down I met you in a dream But I never knew it Alongside me for years You would guide me through it Unwelcome and unseen Until I could view it You’d bring me to my knees Take me down to chew it Ahhh’s You cut into the scene And you saw right through it You tell me to be mean But I just can’t do it You made my ears bleed And you force me to it Getting high on caffeine And I always blew it Uptown Eyes Down No Frowns Till we take them Uptown Hard Hand No doubt Till we take them down We take them down My throat cut, I was clean And my heart pushed through it Words return, they were extreme I could hold back, but screw it Tried to gas me with chlorine The truth is out, you can’t subdue it I see your face, it’s turning green The crowd want blood, you’re gonna spew it Uptown Eyes Down No Frowns Till we take them Uptown Hard Hand No doubt Till we take them down We take them down

All Of Us 03:47
lyrics

All of us Waking again, I’m still alive! And cursing, the dying days light Watching, the city come to life Just longing to feel recognised All of us With all our love It’s not enough To free our souls from… All of us With all our love It’s not enough The demons, hold on Hearing the lovers, laugh and cry I’m broken, I’ve severed all my ties Hope for, the journey through the light Some meaning, at the end of time All of us With all our love It’s not enough To free our souls from… All of us With all our love It’s not enough The demons, hold on

Loves the Rage 03:22
lyrics

Love’s the Rage Trace my steps back through the sand I see the branches and the dams The joys and the heartaches pang The friends pass, the embers flash Dark and dank Our best moments underground Strobing lights urge us out Play through our eternal trash You make the most of your time You fight for things you believe are right In our place there’s nowhere to hide The tougher hurdle, the greater prize All the pieces of our lives Store a piece from us in time Fossils burn, the fading light our fiery dirge shines ever bright know enough to feel it’s not right struck with fear within our minds the pain of those unsatisfied the torture when we look inside Love’s the rage Force the change Love’s the rage Force the change

Pushing You Aside 04:20
lyrics
buy track
Pushing you aside Closing the door, I’m alone now You tell me to try new things Get out, cry and dance, try some romance Take a chance, experience a laugh, live with doubt But the fear grows inside All the people run and hide And the harder I try I push you aside Forcing myself to get closer I reach out to hold your hand Try to forget all the haters Who’d rather we drown in the sand But the fear grows inside All the people run and hide And the harder I try I push you aside Locked out the world, shut inside now Safe with myself once more I don’t need you, to root through my lifestyle It’s enough, being stuck with me But the fear grows inside All the people run and hide And the harder I try I push you aside
