Look at you now - so much to hate Did I pull you down? Did I raise you to run so far from the sound of war? One holy moment of self sacrifice was all I felt So thank you for all you stole. Some would fall, some would catch the emptiness and nothing more Bend the world to tell you what you always knew and nothing more Now this breaks my head - to presume whats inside yours Nothing left to say Something falling gives me cause. You falling to ground, pieces falling down around me You will fail I must never fail to catch you as you drown I do this always but you would never catch me, would you?

Clarity 08:22
Speak now, we will wait in the water To submerge is to never fade, never falter. Clarity comes. Resting beneath the waves, we let the mother go You should have stayed away... We let the water flow. Give us a moment to savour One kind word, one selfless favour Broken heart and broken vessel Lost is love and this is sinking. No we see what you have given - lies and broken promises. Ashes are what we once shared. Lost is love and this is broken. Resting beneath the waves, we let the mother go You should have stayed away... We let the water flow.

Against the sun, I remember beauty once so obvious. And I drink to the splendour of one more day alone. One more disaster cause by your hand is an error of mine. And this ends with my words echoing against the sun. Will you show me safety once again? Bite my tongue so you can walk away Lesson learned but I still find disdain Plague the very soul of what you say One more disaster caused by your hand is no error of mine. And this ends with your words echoing against the sun. One more day. Finally, peace has come. And I walk away. Will you show me safety once again? Bite my tongue so you can walk away Lesson learned but malice held within Soil every thought. Words never change. I walk away.

A Vision 06:52
Woken, daylight breaks Dreams are left in thought Pining for what used to be - a partner in my cell Left beside the window, a single silent vision will take shape Never to appear again, one moment in eternity is real Seamlessly personifying helpless torture, heartless passion It shames me to instantly feel sorrow for this cold and vacant image left alone. And I would walk away now and I would feel no shame. A passage now across the room, a silent hour falls away from me. And I would walk away now Until dreams would take me and let me go. My friend...my lonely shoulder. My desires lie in you. My vision of home. Dont fade away to nothing, my friend. Seamlessly personifying guiltless torture, heartless passion It shames me to instantly feel sorrow for this cold and vacant image left alone. And I would walk away now and I would feel no shame. A silent hour falls away. And I would walk away now. Until dreams would take me and let me go. My friend...my lonely shoulder. My desires lie in you.

Is Eternal 08:22
Stare at the hole Fear their warmest gaze Beware, as what's lost comes around someday Fail once again It matters not to me But you have you pride holding you down there This my mourning. Silence calling. Tired, mourning. Silence calling. Feel what I feel Look away from them If you walk this time Leave your hate with mine. Hopelessly I will wait to be free. You come here (almost left you) You were mine (almost made you) But I leave today (almost need this) To be focussed.

Below blackened skies Travelling alone You, no disguise Find yourself at home with none around you A solitary plane. Breathe - its over. You fail to look through Locked inside your guilt For now you ignore all the blood that's spilt Hollow - your remorse, your arguments and your lies. When night washes over all you see it's clear This time, everyone has left you out of fear Someday, you will realise only what you can This night, vacant passage under blackened skies Take from the darkness what day leaves Behind the torture setting you free For what its worth, you are home Judgement is passed as evening falls And we all know I am to blame. As evening falls upon here You betray somebody's helpless soul. Against heavy pull Forcing pain away Lame from the cold I will still find truth if I look for peace Wait until you subside. Breathe, its over.

about

For What is Lost... is representational of a passage of time where the 'many' became the 'one'...the collective shattered into the singular. These demo quality tracks are the result of these splintered realities.
