The Woods 05:16
Wrapped up in your arms The woods they call out to me Right out the backdoor The trails lead straight to its heart The afternoons in fall We'd lose ourselves In its green, green arc And wonder out loud Of the path ahead Like our lives ahead Now those days have long gone past So did the walks we had Winter bled into the trees The woods came to a standstill Never before did I loathe this cold so much Wrapped up in your arms The woods they call out to me, still But out the backdoor The trails don't lead to its heart Now those days have long gone past So did the walks we had Winter bled into the trees The woods came to a standstill Never before did I loathe this cold so much And the woods They call out to me

Moires 05:20
Somethings are not for us Never meant to be I don't know why This circle repeats A shimmer of hope Burns down a distant path The ashes carried over to me Thin air Is what I grasp on to And I don't know what to do To separate the lies from the truth Trust this world To let it trust you back But, time and time again I'm left at the mercy of the Fates Thin air Is what I grasp on to And I don't know what to do To separate the lies from the truth

Downtown 03:33
Downtown colors greet us well The nostalgia has been our friend The sight of the streets and the art Are keys to our hearts The sidewalks were always straight Harbored no reasons for hate It mirrored the life we tamed A picture we chose to frame But at times, we would lose our way A simple path, now in dismay We glimpse at the lines by the streets And act our part out of the play The afternoon sun would shine so bright Through the glass that we'd sit behind Strange how it all was the same Even though six months had passed by But at times, we would lose our way A simple path, now in dismay We would glimpse at the lines by the streets And act our part out of the play The downtown colors did greet us well But it was time to say goodbye A joy we had to quell Until our next time

Satellites 05:09
Satellites all around me Stuck in orbit, watchful eyes on me Wish they would break away Incinerate on the way down To the earth Just maybe then I would be free And so would you Cut away from their data stream The lies they feed To everyone Satellites Let me snip away this lifeline Or break away Lift your weight off my world Satellites I don't want any of your insight Just break away Lift your weight off our world In your journey There's so much you've pried into No secrets kept hidden Or stones left unturned No corners you've left Untouched and unharmed Satellites Let me snip away this lifeline Or break away Lift your weight our my world Satellites I don't want any of your insight Just break away Lift your weight off my world

Flight 06:47
Who are you to decline my views On who or what I am What I do? Who cares for what you think of me? It helps to know that you would But maybe you should Stop it Break into these walls in my head A ceiling full of doves and gulls A fresco painted with precision This chapel stands wide and tall You're not my kind You saw me fly You're chasing falling feathers Who are you to decrypt my views On who or what I am What I do? Who cares for what you've found inside? It helps to know that you could I knew that you would I am not your kind I have taken flight The ground is now below me You are running wild You are chasing feathers Tethered to your false beliefs I only hope that you break free The sun may sink in your part of the world It rises above in mine I send over the moon to your sky Hoping to shed some light You're so uptight You'll use that light To search for falling feathers You're shackled down By the vast profound Things you know are better I am not your kind I have taken flight The ground is now below me You are running wild You are chasing feathers Tethered to your false beliefs
6.
Riptide 05:24
We sting on our words On trust and truth Lay in a divide Of our disputes I forget Of all the times I pushed you out to the sea Of all my lies And all that I have hid We trade one darkness For another one instead Set our world on fire For a light much needed Do you forget Of all the times I pulled you out of the sea Of all our lies And all that I could not give? Let your spite out Spill all your words I'll be knot here with you I will hold my breath At the end of those words I'll be knot here with you

Safira 05:55
A life defined In your eyes And our heartbeats In a rhyme A walk down a timeless path Under the azure sky A reverie that we once shared The paintings that we have made Now all of it coming together Pouring life in her veins
8.
Snowland 07:15
There I was, but no more Traded sheets of white For sullen days of cold Fumbling fingers They twist the hourglass Draining dusk till dawn Your fingertips reach out to mine Curtained off Our billowed breaths fall on empty beds As the sands drain on and on So, hold me As I sail to fail With a flicker of hope Flicked away So, hold me As I set to rise again In an endless fight Against the curtain that divides You speak of a drive in me Much more than me Faulted, my feet turns cold So prove me wrong Darling prove me wrong Before our singled breath thaws And splits in two So, hold me As I sail to fail Confounded By your words meant well So, hold me As we set to rise again There is much to find In our ties that bind Reach out For the days to come Your fingertips will fall on mine Memories of love and pain Will be made again Across the snowy plains

Ziva 04:23
Serene, mesmerizing, beautiful The words I would use to describe her Appetence was the love That we shared Words aren't enough, never enough For they always fail The horizon of our future Span undefined The memories we've made Are so divine Now forever, and eternal Love permeates the air Leaving behind, an undying fragrance And it became our life breath The strength to our souls The light, to our darkness Carry each other, we will Through the ends of time Cradle this love to the afterlife Immortal we will remain Reborn again Our strengths combined have tamed The wildest of the oceans Free for us to set sail For us to chart the uncharted waters For us to be onward And never look back For us to never falter
