Witch’s Flower I think I’ve been here before Focus slips to the fire and dances with The trees Their shadows float around me Are we under attack? Forgive me, I wasn’t listening Send me back to the beginning On the count of three Aim for the sky with intent To clip the wings of our suffering Fear! fire! foes! Awake, awake From far away, from far away Later that night while we were sound asleep Our demons revealed their tricks and they came for our dreams With very tempting offers dipped in gold to sway us like “You can spend forever with me, you won’t ever have to feel like this anymore” Like poison on a sharp blade, it’s crippling when it cuts you And no, it isn’t only skin deep, it’s paralyzing in the moment Now I can’t feel my legs I can’t feel my fingertips My eyes are fixed on the shadows that dance around me Alert the calvary! Send me back to the beginning On the count of three Aim for the sky

Dreamscape 02:50
Dreamscape I feel alive For this moment in time Hold on tight, we fly by night as the city lights below us fade to insignificance The skyline reaches down to guide us, a caress with the slightest touch Snow falls to cover everything in sight and sound soon follows after I feel alive if only For this moment in time With you here by my side We fly by night Leave all of our problems behind My eyes keep shifting upwards I’m catching glances of your face through a break in the cycle In the space between it all My eyes flutter to a spiral shifting downwards Suddenly I’m in the sky where I’ll spend time in this dreamscape we made I can see the sun rising in the distance How beautiful do you think it will be? We fell so far from grace How could we? But before we could hit the ground I suddenly wake from a breathless dream What happened to you and me? I can only remember the ending as it begins to fade

Adventurer 05:09
Adventurer Is everything alright? The night is growing colder Staying safe, I hope so Everything is in order It’s almost midnight now It’s a bit late to be wandering around, isn’t it? Your head is lost in another world again Correct me if I’m wrong You needed an escape But it’s bad luck to talk about that place I never should have come here I never should have Is someone there? I think I heard something down the hall I guess it was nothing I guess it was nothing What do you need? Could sure use a warm bed right about now But if we’re being real I need help And I am always afraid To simply ask for it I isolated myself for far too long The damage has been done I just wanna be done I miss the loved ones I left behind To watch the skies as I travel beyond Crossing borders to far away lands All to escape myself I learned lessons on how to be alone Not where to go when I have gone to far

Salt & Rust 03:17
Salt & Rust Streetlight above me burning holes into the evening Illuminate my lack of sleep Smoke rolls from my lips as I curse the very habit Does that amount to nothing more than hypocrisy It sure feels like it And now I feel sick to my stomach the more I delve inwardly I have unresolved afflictions buried deep Sometimes I’m trapped in this dissociative state where I’m trapped in the same house I’ve lived in for over four years now as I hopelessly watch all of my loved ones turn to leave me I am unable to speak and every motion is slowed to infinity At the same time my life begins and ceases to be Yet I can almost grasp the imagery as it flows the voice of every I love you through the halls to echo As if recorded and reproduced perfectly by every demon that’s ever wanted to hurt me I can see them in the corners lurking Speaking in tongues and whispering As if I cannot read their lips to see through the spells that they are casting Get the fuck away from me so I can think or fucking breathe These walls are closing in on me I don’t think I’ll get any sleep tonight for the third time this week I feel so weak Last night my demons told me I can’t tell anyone anything I need to practice what I preach Silence will be the death of me I need to practice what I preach For integrity For my friends and family

Porthaven 03:10
Porthaven A fog in the morning obstructs our view The solitude is comforting We can see everything we don’t want to be When reflection is necessary "Can you believe how hopeless we used to be?" I’ll state confidently “I’m still trying” At times it still gets to me And then I can’t see the future for what it could be And then it’s clear to me my greatest enemy is myself I’m still working on that Come with me we’ll find new self worth tonight For a moment let’s forget where we came from So familiar on the tip of my tongue May we learn to forgive ourselves for the mistakes we’ve made along the way No sleep but we’re still dreaming I can’t seem to let go of this feeling No sleep but we’re still dreaming I can’t seem to let go of this feeling
