Collide With the Sun

When the darkness fills our eyes
And we see the pain within
We clash with our own fate
Though sorrow makes us bleak
And claws into our veins
We stand and let it bleed
To drown our agony
Get drunk with aching glee
Salvation from the pain
Hope is not in vain
The shadow won't prevail
If you never let it in
Or so you tell yourself
You can't let it win
Day by day you break
And pick the pieces up
Put it back together
Even if they slash your hands
One step forward each day
Just don't ever look back
But when it all becomes easier
Then you collide with the sun
Shadows weave your way
Breaking every reprieve
When you think it's done
You collide with the sun
Striving for reprieve
Darkness is your grave
Do not stray away
Bittersweet is pain
Moments of brightness absolve
Eternity of darkness drowns
Fly away from grief
Fall and cripple your dreams
Striving for hope
Collide with the sun

Spirit of the Forest

Do you remember
When it all used to be so simple?
When the innocence of our dreams
Was incorruptible?
There was a place where we were sheltered
from the darkness
Then we had to grow out into the cold machines that churn like a disease
upon our spark losing our touch with what made us unique
Now to relive the spirit of the forest
To become whole again like we used to
The pain was numb back then
It was there but we couldn’t perceive it
As it choked our breath
Like vines of corruption seeping within
We used to listen to the song of the wind
Feeling the breath of our souls within
Now we need so much from our surroundings
Satisfaction chained by a million bindings
Do you remember
When the song spoke to you
And the swans carried you?
Is your soul so charred and black
that you can’t find your way back
We’ll sing and dance
Just like old times
With no care or conscience
Just serenity in the forest

Plight of the Stars

Our gaze shifts to the skies
Under the disguise
of the clouds in our eyes
We try to find our direction
but the darkness is such a grim distraction
Our path in the galaxy set by the reactions of infinite abstractions
The cosmic plans fall into black holes
As our species veers from its souls
When there is no way to go
When we’ve lost to our own ego

As Enchantments Fail
02:28
|
|||
When the veil drops and all you see
Is the naked truth of what you must be
No way to escape the pain of ennui
We will grow callouses as soldier on
We can just hope
That we can escape and the find the spirit that enlifts us
As enchantments fail
We taught ourselves to fall
And without hope we will
Little constructs of lies that we build
All the dreams that we left unfulfilled
The blood from our sins building up
As our frustated psyche erupts
