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

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

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

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
