The Spell 04:52

When the fog just will not lift Stuck for a moment, then years of it Bitter gray your aura speaks Of loneliness, it’s the only theme Life is long, we’re not made to understand it You feel love, but it the end it you couldn’t give it Alone we come, alone we stand, alone we go All we learn here is that we do not know The rise, the fall, the guilt, the shame How much right does it take to wash the wrong away? From the bitter pill of passing days In the blood of man the poison stays Has our God left our side? Was he there all the nights we cried? If he speaks still we don’t hear Perhaps it’s his word that we fear God I’m lost, I could really use some saving Step right in my faith is wavering My heart is standing in shadows and denial I may drop before I see my souls revival The rise, the fall, the guilt, the shame… Tears fall like rain, they fall from the eyes Of a man lost inside Tears fall like rain, they fall to ground Confusing the fool , lost to temptation…. Feel so different but look so same My actions have brought me nothing but shame The man that once saw so clear, that man wouldn’t even let me near I heard someone say “everything is broken” Rang so loud nothing more true ever spoken I look through the same eyes that saw the lie At shallowness, bitterness, a weak mans disguise The rise, the fall, the guilt, the shame….

We feel love, feel the warmth of kisses We sailed a hundred ships down the river of wishes Every turn brought a lie, every lie burrowed deeper No questions allowed from the souls they steal Run for cover My restless brother Time the demon Faith the great deceiver You run for cover Tomorrow is another Journey to another end We see evil in the faces of angels Then throw every ounce of trust at the hearts of strangers In the distance they stand, in shadows we cower In between wait the lonely hours Run for cover… But my eyes they will not see My prayers are sent But are they really ever received The faith we hold Is the very same faith we curse The very same faith we hold again tomorrow We lie, we wait, fueled by hunger Simple breaths of God in his great adventure We rest in reason, we move in passion But cannot find what we're after Run for cover...

I feel the wind of change Has come around As it blew right through me It made a crazy sound The words of my father Ring so loudly now Respect the moment son It won't always be around Won't always wake to see The same sun shine Never felt the same love twice In all the hands that have held mine Looking at the sky Remembering what I’ve seen Feeling how it felt And knowing what I’d been Searching for a time That wasn’t ruled by sin Trying hard to see again Sometimes it will be luck Knocking on your door Then luck removes it's mask Reveals an ugly scar Deceit the gypsy Truth the home There must be a thousand pounds Of pressure on my soul Looking at the sky… Sometimes I try to run So far away Sometimes I scream Sometimes I even pray That it'll matter somehow This pain I see In the eyes of everyone Searching just like me Looking at the sky…

Never 06:11
Looking up, looking down At my steps I wonder where Where do they lead? To another place to another place where I cannot be Am I never going to shake sorrow’s cloud? Each day I wake, it wakes with me Eyes that judge, eyes of fear I’m just a mother’s son, How would you think she’d feel if she saw me here? Look inside yourself Just how far do you really think you are From standing here? There is no love in the shadows of black and grey Only fear of what tomorrow may bring Still I walk, I know no other way Still I hope, …hope is all that is left Funny, now I remember then When I was a little boy standing in the gym Beside others just like me Sometimes I wonder where they are Knowing well, they’re not like me Then I take a pill I took a thousand times Then I break the razor in my bag But I sleep again before the task is done In the morning wonder if I’m weak or strong… Don’t need your tears, don’t need your shame Just close your door see if I go away You can forget so easily What you don’t allow yourself to see Just keep those tears and keep your shame Just close your door I’ll go away Every now and then I try to find the moment when I became, a forgotten man I curse the sun for simply daring to rise again I curse myself, and the pain within I curse a world that seems to have no time to care I curse everything truth I curse every lie

She plays the song that takes her away The words make her feel so brave Make her feel so not alone She tries to forget and forgive every lie To believe that love will find her Where she hides A single wish brings a tragic glance A life so fragile, really owned by chance Of a perfect world She often dreams Where right is right and everything is what it seems So strong, in fear no mercy shown Helpless to right or wrong She simply waits to be found She’s given body, she’s given soul She’s selfless, willing and able And she’ll do what she’s told A single wish brings a tragic glance A life so fragile, really owned by chance Of a perfect world she often dreams Where right is right and everything is what it seems Love comes around its just lost and found Takes us high slams us to the ground She waits to be taken, she wants to feel Something different something real As the hours move slowly by, the days turn in to years Even God stood idly by, as sadness turned to tears And I wonder when my time is done And all the battles have been lost or won Will my heart still hold all that I Tried to give but was always denied Is she poison?, or treasure deep? And are you what her dreams or made of Or will you haunt her when she sleeps? She needs to be held, she needs hold She just needs something to believe But can we ever really know? A single wish brings a tragic glance…

Take me now, show me why “Love breeds life”, she says with a smile The time is near, show me where I stand alone, everywhere Where once stood love now grows a lie Weathered and weary, frightened and tried Hardened by day, hidden by night It’s so deep within, so far from sight See this world, mine and yours The same sun, shines on everyone Seems so dark, sometimes seems so still I struggle with, always will Where once stood love now grows a lie Weathered and weary, frightened and tried Hardened by day, hidden by night It’s so deep within, so far from sight How many years does it take to see? How many words does it take to “be”? How long do we crawl? How many times must we fall? From time to time, a wind will come The clouds above, remind me of When I could feel, when I could hope When home , was never far Where once stood love now grows a lie Weathered and weary, frightened and tried Hardened by day, hidden by night It’s so deep within, so far from sight

There's something happening, I can't explain I think I disappear more and more each day A life that I once knew, echo's like a distant voice So familiar yet so strange I guess I walk the same, I think I probably talk the same I sleep at night and wake to walk another day But I go in circles like a dog lost in the rain Following the shallow scent of home It’s getting hard these days to see it clear Everything I ever loved has disappeared Days gone by They lead me to a sunset sky On a weathered trail of love and lies All the yesterdays hide I'd like to pack a bag, I'd like to walk away I’d like to run back to the arms of yesterday I'd give up everything, I think I’d take that chance Can someone explain to me how? The years I feared so, crept up so slow And swallowed everything I have ever loved Left all true and certain, in the distance hurting From these hands that now grow old alone It’s getting hard these days to see it clear Everything I ever knew has disappeared Days gone by… Years lay beside me, offering comfort I escape into the memories they hold I guess it’s not what you’re given But what you take from life And now, I wish I taken more It’s getting hard these days to see it clear Everything I ever knew has disappeared Days gone by…

Jenny hums a song, she can’t find the words She hears the whisper of the wind She turns her head Taken by the moonlight as it shines Through the curtains, softly spilling shadows On the soul it finds Maybe there’s meaning and we just can’t know But I do know these walls will never be her home I’ll just close my eyes and go some place far Maybe I’ll find a reason or at least avoid the scars The fire in my heart tonight It rages high, it rages wide For everything I must forget Denied, or buried deep within I struggle for the lesson in A pain that should be saved For greater sins Than loving, trusting, caring The fire in my heart tonight It rages high Rages wide Hey man, you were in my dream last night You looked different, but I knew it was you… You said what you said the night we met It was good to feel that way again… Wish I could take you there with me I guess we left to fast Can’t change it now, it’s so far in the past Wish I could see that look again, it’s been so long But you’re somewhere different now And that would be wrong The fire in my heart tonight… Time forgets a little, but I need a little more I knew you’d stay with me, even after you’d gone I’ll admit that life is beautiful I’ll admit that life is cruel And that I learned both loving you…… Wherever you are, you’ll never be far But I am sure I’d never recognize just who you are But somewhere, maybe deep, below those eyes You wonder where I am Standing tonight The fire in my heart tonight…
