Track Name: Blinding Light
Respite waits, alight
In these beacons of grace

Dark was the night, and
Drenched in despair, was I
Cloaked in despise,
And my reticent pride

If I... cold
Open
My... eyes
So wide

The things
I have come to
Discover
What my eyes have seen

When he came to me, he came to me...

Oh! I've seen the blinding light
Yeah! He uncovered my eyes

Oh, like a bow to a string
Let eternal notes sing
Of the beauty I've seen

Today, I'll wait
For you, calm
My spirit swells,
With grand aplomb

Though earthly dearest decline
And creature comforts dispel;
I have seen the blinding light
Track Name: I Do It To Myself
Didn't you know, didn't you know?
My heart is a stone!
Haven't you heard, haven't you heard?
I make myself alone
It's not what I planned, but it's who I am
I do it to myself

I am no golden child;
Oh, so lost, and not found
Scarce to err on the side of caution,
My dark passenger's arrived
She's got the chemical eyes;
She's lookin' alright,
She's got the chemical eyes,
She's lookin', oh...

But I'm just a smoking gun
Constructed of
Daggers and sharks
Track Name: Bodies
Oh, I heard the voice of God!
It came in no rushing wind
It came in no shaking earth
It came in a still, soft voice

I have heard
More than words
Spark the catalyst, waiting to ignite
I have felt
The weight unfurl
Carried ever on, never to see light

We are so much more
Than bodies, alive
We will carry on
Like torches in the night
We will set ablaze
This world will be alight
With our flaming tongues
And fire in our eyes

Come to me
Be my peace
Raise the gates
For soon I’ll leave
With a cross to bear
And a cup to drink
I will carry on
Never lie beneath

I will drink down death like water
And I will soldier forward
I will fill my cup twice over
Oh death, I’ll feel your sting nevermore
Track Name: Doors
Wearing thin, will this ever begin?
(If not now, will it ever be the right time?)
Closing in, won’t you let it begin?
(I try, you know that I try)

Caged in skin
My only caveat I carry with me always
Only human
Confined inside this rising feeling in my chest

“Come to me; lay beside,”
She beckoned to me, and I replied,
“Oh, my love, my wrists are tied
These things take time, dear.”

Wearing thin, will this ever begin?
(If not now, will it ever be the right time?)
Will I ever make this work?
(I try, you know that I try)

Breath by breath
I’ll make my way
On stepping stones
Formed by each day
I
Wait
These lonesome nights
Accompanied by the waves
Of thoughts, so clear
Tending to days, unfilled
They’re oh, so vacant and far
From your touch, my dear
I’m gaining ground, but approached by such fear

“Come to me; lay beside,”
She beckoned to me, and I replied,
“Oh, my love, my wrists are tied
These things take time, dear.”

Dare I open this door?
Should I leave it untold?
Dare I open this door?
Should I be enter at all?
