scatter my blood far across the tile
make her smile to prove it's worth your while
let the sunrise fall and let the sunset die
let the clouds go grey, and lastly, let me cry.
im turning out much worse than what i bargained for
im burning out.
how do we come back from where we last left off?

fly (demo)
05:09
|
|||
someday, our hearts will wither
someday, our minds will fray
let it be not for those who would laugh as we suffer
and chuckle as we drown
someday our eyes will see darkness
and our bones will grow fragile and frail
time warps our mind till we're all old bitter
and bitter you'll become
but your soul is a song
of everything holy and bright
though time passes on
the light in your eyes
it burns all the monsters who'd rather see us fall and die
with you, we'll fly
the pain does just one thing today,
it leads us to further decay
life goes on
and hearts grow far
but your soul is a song
of everything holy and bright
though time passes on
the light in your eyes
it burns all the monsters who'd rather see us fall and die
with you, we'll fly
so burn it all down, and topple the walls
forget mortality and turn back the clock
we'll grow up again and make it our own
they'll all sing along with you on the throne
your soul is the music of amplified fire
the one thing that's good in our final hour
so please hold me closer, please hold me tight
together we'll fly and become the light
become the light.

my time alone (demo)
03:55
|
|||
my time alone showed me
everything i couldn't be
my sleepless nights prevailed
over every last happy tale
relive them all, now
yesterday's just fading away
normal is gone, we have lost
the game oh, so long ago
the chills on my skin
are born from every last sacred sin
forgive them all, now
tomorrow's all just fading to grey
relive them all now
forgive them all, now
it's time to move on, now
find your way home, now

how was your day (demo)
04:18
|
|||
darling, why don't you stay up tonight?
and tell me what your day was like
did you live your best life?
did you find some warmth and light?
i know my day was not the best,
and to be frank, i'm quite depressed
i did not live up to the best
today was so cold 'till you
you showed me that to feel again
we can't be fake, we can't pretend
we can't move on without a friend
then you asked
how was your day?
how was your day, dear?
how was your day?
how was your day, my love?
and i hope these words will fill you up with joy
and lift us up above the noise
a choir singing loud, "rejoice"
i do wish that you'll be okay
'cause life is not an easy thing
sometimes we walk alone and think
my sanity's beyond the brink
just step back, and maybe you'll find
that love won't be alone again
and in your heart you will begin
to love those that helped shape your plans
they'd have asked you
how was your day?
how was your day, dear?
how was your day?
how was your day, my love?
how was your day?
how was your day, dear?
how was your day?
how was your day, my love?
so don't give up on life, alright?
i wanna see you smiling bright
i even will stay up tonight
i know life did not treat you right
so wipe away the tears
i'll show you, you matter
at least to me, darling
we'll make it through alright
we're landing in starlight
and i will be here for you

we'll be around (demo)
05:01
|
|||
find in your heartbreak
the only ones you loved
find in your sorrow
the fire you stole from the gods
we'll be around
we'll be around
find in the madness
a peace within your words
find in the wasteland
the flower that so rarely blooms
we'll be around
we'll be around
i hope i'm not forgotten
i hope you saw the best in me
i hope my love was enough to plainly see
i hope i'm not too overbearing
cause i'll be around
i'll be around
find in her memories
a true meaning of home
find in her loving eyes
all you need to let go
find in her absence
a pain never fading
find in her absence
the gods who lack a loving soul
we'll be around
we'll be around
i hope i'm not forgotten
i hope you saw the best in me
i hope my love was enough to plainly see
i hope i'm not too overbearing
cause i'll be around
i'll be around
i wish i was not forgotten
i wish you saw the best in me
i wish my love was enough to plainly see
i wish we found an understanding
but you're not around
you're not around.

rope and twine (demo)
03:51
|

i dream about dying alone in the woods
and angels weeping along with the sight
if there was a god up above that they serve
it doesn't live
or maybe it's blind
give it all your energy
it's more than you could handle
they might just leave you cold
the only love you'll ever use
the evening sky turned to fiery gold
the weight of the world crashing into this home
a panic that leaves me with chills to the bone
i cannot breathe, maybe it's dying
give it all your energy
it's more than you could handle
they might just leave you could
the only love you'll ever see
i'll swing from chandeliers
of rope and twine and electrical cords
it's the final answer
when there's nothing real anymore

wander, my heart (demo)
05:38
|
|||
come, take my hand
it's not too late to wander
if you're so inclined
it's hard to find
the right words to say, or things just to do
when our fears hide our eyes
so why did we run?
as if glass had torn at our feet
why did we mourn?
for a love that's still so alive
why did we hide?
as if every memory worth joy
was given to the monsters inside?
come, toe the line
between life and death and blind retrospect
come pull me back from the edge
i knew it must be you
and you must be you if we're to be free
come take your rest in my head\
so why did we run?
as if glass had torn at our feet
why did we mourn?
for a love that's still so alive
why did we hide?
as if every memory worth joy
was only ever one of ours to keep?
come, take my hand
it's not too late to wander
it's not too late to dance
oh darling, it's not too late
to find
to fight
to wander, my heart

it's a miracle you're here today,
so why are you still living as before?
broken dreams and promises,
do they leave you lost and broken on the floor?
in endless seas of struggling,
i understand if you can't bear the pain
when the sky gets dark again,
remember all the love i sent your way
cause i remember love
i remember who you were when this began
kaleidoscopic canopies
dot the sky of reds and blues and golds
living breathing elegies,
our fears and worries sewn into our clothes
in tapestries of consequences,
i'll wear them proudly lest it goes in vain
when i want to scream your name,
i'll sing it loudly into pouring rain
cause i remember love
i remember who you were when this began
i remember love
i remember how you'll stay until the end
at least, i thought you said
at least, i thought you said
you'd stay until the end
at least, i thought you said
that you'd remember love
you'd remember love
you'd remember how all this began
(where am i gonna go home to now?)
do you remember love?
(how could i know it's not real?)
(why can't you tell me the truth?)
(i couldn't walk away)
please remember love
(with you so engrained in my mind)
(why can't you just stay?)
please remember
me.
