The Void 05:54
To think you were here just a moment ago makes it all seem so unreal We may never be the same And these wounds may never heal Farther and farther I try to trace back Can't seem to hold on, this feeling I lack Won't you appear and take my hand? Because farther and farther I'm losing this fight Always feeling so close yet so far away Oh how I wish I could say hello For so long I’ve been searching for a light through the dark These are the times I can never forget These warm memories, my silent remedy Until I remember the cold ways, In which you treated me Farther and farther I try to trace back Can't seem to hold on, this feeling I lack Won't you appear and take my hand? Because farther and farther I'm losing this fight Always feeling so close yet so far away Oh how I wish I could say hello For so long I’ve been searching for a light through the dark I’ve been trying to find you, did you know that? I’ve been trying to find you, did you know that? Oh how I wish I could say hello I know that we are searching for it And I know in my mind I'll find this piece I'm missing A message to the unknown, hoping I will hear an answer An answer to this... Always feeling so close yet so far away Oh how I wish that I could say hello For so long I’ve been searching for a light through the dark I’ve been trying to find you, did you know that? I’ve been trying to find you, did you know that? Oh how I wish I could say hello

Streetlight 03:46
I’m fleeing from a view of concern I’m struggling with these values Where do the lines draw themselves? You wait while I contemplate, the thought of nowhere to go I’ve tried to see your point no longer will I settle for a life of average descent time is coming to an end, beginning to Take its place, a place worth holding onto Wake up and do the same I’ll wake up when it’s time to change To live is to breathe, and I’ve been suffocating for so damn long Searching for the air to satisfy these tired lungs Bring me back to the time when I knew the world knew me by name I’m questioning the answers unpacking the truth that I’ve stumbled upon seeing what others Have to say Wanting to speak, I keep it silent; freeing myself from hands restraint And learning to take your hate with subtle grace I’ve tried to see your point no longer will I settle for a life of average descent time is coming to an end, beginning to Take its place, a place worth holding onto Wake up and do the same I’ll wake up when it’s time to change To live is to breathe, and I’ve been suffocating for so damn long Searching for the air to satisfy these tired lungs Bring me back to the time when I knew the world knew me by name

I bring myself down to my knees weighed down by a heavy heart needing to breathe Ask me why I question each and every hour Abuse my thoughts, and find myself to risk it all For the naked eye, it's too far to see But my mind's eye sets my heart at ease To see up ahead our lives living louder And know only a few understand what I saw Tonight we burn like the stars in the sky Coming together we're blurring the lines Tonight we burn like the stars in the sky 10 years from here we'll look back and know why I'm guilty to a certain degree that I find no comfort from uncertainty The house of doubt seems more a tower Locking the truest dreams amongst its halls For there are those who lose their key But I'll make damn sure I keep my dream I won't watch it share the fate of a martyr And know only a few stand with my cause To see up ahead our lives living louder And know only a few understand what I saw Tonight we burn like the stars in the sky Coming together we're blurring the lines Tonight we burn like the stars in the sky 10 years from here we'll look back and know why It doesn't matter when Cause we know we'd do it all over again It doesn't matter when Cause we know we'd do it all over again Tonight we burn like the stars in the sky Coming together we're blurring the lines Tonight we burn like the stars in the sky 10 years from here we'll look back and know why

The Same Way 04:12
Our lives begin to shape Into paintings shared by all We must not forget that we are All staring at change I’ve been so stuck waiting for time To strike when my heart wasn’t beating My line in the sand becomes A trench worth leaving Slowly I rise till the shadows begin to fade My chest begins to beat and I can finally see Look through me and criticize The thought of a life lived (Can never send me home) I never thought we'd come to see The end of all my dreams Gray times cannot remain Troubles of my time, (The trenches grew louder) Now from depths I rise and Embrace the open water There's nowhere else to go from here We're collapsing under the weight A boy seeking a man inside Pages turn as he hides Turn away from all the pins Turn away from all the needles Take the steps to seal whats yours Through the door your story awaits Slowly I rise till the shadows begin to fade My chest begins to beat and I can finally see Look through me and criticize The thought of a life lived (Can never send me home) I never thought we'd come to see The end of all my dreams Gray times cannot remain Troubles of my time, (The trenches grew louder) Now from depths I rise and Embrace the open water And I've seen worse in times like these Don’t be afraid to accept the help They give you Take it as a sign that life is on your side Look through me and criticize The thought of a life lived (Can never send me home) I never thought we'd come to see The end of all my dreams Gray times cannot remain Troubles of my time, (The trenches grew louder) Now from depths I rise and Embrace the open water

Losing Sight 04:09
I can't call home to this place I'm in This isn't what the journey is supposed to be Where is the light I was following? It's not here now, it's been fading So sick of this, this fear in me I'm looking for relief from the constant defeat of my beliefs It's got to be here, I can feel it The foundation is crumbling, I've got to find my way out Maybe the dark knows who I am Maybe it's leading me to be a better man Don't give up, it’ll be okay I've lost my sight but I refuse to lose the fight Where is the exit that I need to find? Some hope that pulls away these thoughts from my mind? I'm ready to forget the past To leave behind the demon that's been haunting my life So sick of this, this fear in me I’m looking for relief from the constant defeat of my beliefs Maybe the dark knows who I am Maybe it’s leading me to be a better man Don’t give up, it’ll be okay I’ve lost my sight but I refuse to lose the fight We move past the fear inside us Knowing this night won’t always last The sun will burn as it always has Leaving behind the shadows of what there once was Maybe the dark knows who I am Maybe it’s leading me to be a better man Don’t give up, it’ll be okay I’ve lost my sight but I refuse to lose the fight
