Head For The Hills
04:31
|
|||
|
Caught in the ether lost in a winterless spring
A lifetime of memory tearing apart everything
Time brings us closer despite all the darkness we feel
Let's head for the hillside before it's too close to conceal
Cold is calling
In spite of it all, we will wait for the fall of the harvest
Night has fallen
Out in the fog, is there anyone out there
Leaving it all behind when we head for the hills
Where was the end when you said we would find the remains
All that was left on the land was the wind on the plains
Our fear was a century burning the light of our past
The future was nothing but somehow we thought it would last
Moon is rising
Over the land where we're taking a stand in the violet
Across the horizon
Out in the dark is there anyone out there
Leaving it all behind when we head for the hills
Cold is calling
In spite of it all, we will wait for the fall of the harvest
Night has fallen
Out in the fog, is there anyone out there?
Leaving it all behind when we head for the hills

Dead End Eyes
04:24
|
|||
|
You can hide
Like a needle in the hay
Behind your pride
As I walk away
I looked back
Felt the thorn into my side
A slow attack
From your dead end eyes
Your dead end eyes
We are falling into sunrise
Running through the shadows blind
Crawling back into the night
Lost outside
But does anybody know
All the lies
That we have told
In the line of fire
Left me standing in the wake
As the light expires
In your dead end eyes
Your dead end eyes
We are wandering through the vacant night
Hollow in the distant light
Silent in the black and white
Calling out across the night
We are locked within a freedom fight
Only left to lose what's right
As I fall into your dead end eyes
We are falling into sunrise
Running through the shadows blind
Crawling back into the night
Locked within a freedom fight
We are silent in the black and white
Only left to lose what's right
As I fall into your dead end eyes
Fall into your dead end eyes
As I fall into your dead end eyes

Easier
04:42
|

|
Oh the empty eyes of memory
Fields of violet in the midnight
You & I in tangled twine
I forgot it all in my memory
How to devise a better lie
Where we could say these bitter words in honest times
Trapped upon a crooked line
Where we left our place in time
Carved upon the tallest tree
That echoes all we'll ever be
Holding on to memories still
Written in an empty will
Filled with flame still burning down
Buried hearts left underground
Can we get easier
Can we get easier
Every moment you were mine
Left its mark over time
Our thoughts remain our only path
To lead us deeper into black
I was made to see this through
Searching for the end of you
Hidden face, long distant skin
Leave this all where it begins
Can we get easier
Can we get easier
Can we get easier
Can we get easier
Only when our shadows move
Only when our shadows move to cross the dark
Only when our shadows move
Only when our shadows move to cross the dark
Only when our shadows move
Only when our shadows move to cross the dark
Can we get easier
Can we get easier
Can we get easier
Can we get easier

Run From The Dark
03:58
|
|||
|
Faded lovers when we run from the dark
To dance with others who we face in the ark
Of time that's leaving our bodies behind
So tired of grieving in our hearts and our minds
Distant from each other, we change in the dark of the season
Left to only wonder, we wait for the light to arrive
Yearning for another, we burn through the loss and the leaving
When there's nowhere to hide
Sacred memories that leave us in time
Lost in motion as we struggle to find
A place to keep them forever close to our hearts
For safe keeping when we run from the dark
Tired of resisting, we black out the sound of our worries
Dreaming in the distance we're chasing the night from the sky
Pain still existing, we think we can heal in a hurry
When there's nowhere to hide
When there's nowhere to hide

Safe From Sin
05:15
|
|||
|
Why did I ever let you leave me first
Go without words
No voices heard
How did we become such a fading past
Disappearing fast
Always thought we'd last
Oh how I had let you win
To keep you safe from sin
Without and within
Every dream became our doubts
Never to find out
Within or without
I've come to terms with loss in a lifetime
To stay behind
To lose my mind
Where did we leave our everlasting fears
Year after year
Are they still here
Bound by all we haven't lost
Through every road we crossed
It comes at every cost
Destined to let you back in
But where would we begin
To keep us safe from sin
When did I become so cold inside
Did I realize
We were idealized
Counting all the things we could never find
I guess it's time
That we resigned
Oh but I had to let you in
Without and within
To keep you safe from sin
Destined to get you back in
But where would we begin
To keep us safe from sin

Cindy Runs
04:20
|
|||
|
You know by now there is no other
Her name revolves around my world inside these walls
But maybe she has found another
To take her by the hand and make her feel at home
Or could she be alone
Look now the sky is full of worry
It's raining all across the land
Just as the stars align
We're running out of time
As the clock strikes midnight and
Cindy runs
We parted ways with eyes of wonder
She wandered far away into the violet moon
I had not seen her since last summer
But then she reappeared to say she'd never leave
Now I don't know who to be
We're walking down the hall together
Hand in hand across a vacant sea
But when it's 3pm
Will she still remember when
The clock strikes midnight and
Cindy runs
Look now the sky is full of worry
It's raining all across the land
Just as the stars align
We're running out of time
As the clock strikes midnight and
Cindy runs Cindy runs Cindy runs

Clovers
04:43
|
|||
|
Lately I have wondered why
Your fading eyes follow me
Back and forth, headed north
I've never missed you more
All my life
Won't you come over to me
Get lost in the clovers
Oh the madness of full moons
As the evening grows colder too soon
But it's never over
Without those eyes late at night
Darling I could never be
Won't you come over to me
Get lost in the clovers and the wreckage
The moon in full blooming silver
Rising slowly as evening gets colder
But it's never over in you
As we get lost in the clovers of June
Lost in the clovers

On My Mind
04:27
|
|||
|
I have run out of ways to reaching you
Just beyond each horizon on my mind
And I have seen all the trouble I've become
Down the road from where we parted back in time
But I hear your echoes in the night
Fading softly from/with the light
By holding onto you I'm losing other things
Every memory into shadows lost in time
In captive darkness still a golden light is there
Within the shades of everything you left behind
And as you dance across the sky
I burn for every star that lies above
There's no good reason just to slowly disappear
And fade from stillness in the quiet of my mind
It's just the dark end in the passing of each year
To remind us of the things we'll never find
I don't know how to make you stay
With every tide you are the wave
And I am lost beyond the sea
Across the ocean where you'll be
Always on my mind
Always on my mind
Always on my mind
Always on my mind

Old Fear
04:54
|
|||
|
Who will love me in the morning when I rise
Through the darkest days will the rest
(any) of us survive
I was meant to be inside the setting sun
Will you long to be beside me in the dawn
The fact of every matter was just a choice
at hand
To catch me where I fall or to lay there
where I land
Destined to lose all of what we held so
dear
Caught up in endless loss with the same
old fear
Same old fears
Same old fears
Memories of us, our lives the space
between
Can't recall who we were or any place
we've been
Seems I'm always here not matter how far
we run
Now who will love me in the evening when
I'm done
Same old fears
Same old fears
Same old fears
Same old fears
