lyrics

Set your sights
Set your mind ablaze
Desolate land you now roam
Your cloistered life remains
Trust the faith I’ve handed to you on your way

Down below the threshold lies the key
The key to prosperity, but behind walls unscathed it stays engraved
Why would you pray in the dark?
Swallow all the pain and suffocate
Is it serenity that you are looking for?

If you can end my pain, then why’d you take control
You claim that you bring peace, then why am I unwhole
And when I need you most, why do you leave
Me lying sleeping in the cracks of this cold reality
Wait on the sideline while all mankind burns
This scarlet moon won’t bring back the life you used to call your own
Why would you pray in the dark?
Swallow all the pain and suffocate
Is it serenity that you are looking for?

And I’ve been to the ending of a lifetime
Our story’s never meant to be defined
No strength, no light to guide
No moving on
We’ll make the ascension seem painless
We’ll climb above it all
We’re moving on

Harmonious times lay behind those walls
Constant retaliation, divergent steps are where the journey starts
Trust the faith I've handed you
It's a long road, but you will see a better day

And I’ve been to the ending of a lifetime
Our story’s never meant to be defined
No strength, no light to guide
No moving on
We’ll make the ascension seem painless
We’ll climb above it all
We’re moving on

I like the fact that this guy is not in “omg I love djent so much I’ll only let *that* express in my songs” mode. With his friends he crafts thoughtful and diverse songs which can be either playful or touching. Alice M.
