Track Name: Downfall
Bells are ringing
Can you feel them?
A river of dreams
Spills unto my soul
Drowning

Help me remember
The distance
That keeps it strange
Keeps me dark
Like whispers lost in the mist.
Longing to be heard

Never knew love
Never knew pain
Just waiting here in refrain
Listening and waiting
For you

I want to recognize
How much I want it
But it’s gone
Something I’ve yet to feel
New and refined
Cancer waiting to fill my heart

Never knew love
Never knew pain
Just waiting here in refrain
Listening and waiting
For you

For you
I’m singing
To empty this overflow
of bottled thoughts
The body tears, the mind whittles.
Tired and strange,
I'm just looking for protection.
Track Name: Across The Atlantic
I could not see the shore
From the waves that crashed before
And my steel wavering brightly

In lighting storm pale and violent
Thoughts of home
love unrequited

Blood between bodies lifted
Tones of salt drifted
hands dirtied

To you I call
Back where I cried
Of angels glory
Alas

there is no return
for there is soil to soak

to spill upon
our guts and anger
we give heartily
regretfully

Red blue and white
Our greatest fight
Track Name: Jack's Union
The bombs were falling in the night
God screaming let there be light
And no one could say
the floor was colder this winter
and I called to you in the night
screaming for your sight

god please
god please
god please
god please
whisper to me
whisper to me

marry me tonight before we die
love me tonight before we die
marry me tonight before I die
love me tonight before I die

And it was raining then
My shoes broken and uneven
Seven months passing our paths crossing again
You invited me to lay
My arms open in distress
Where you called to me in the night
Our souls in flight

God please
God please
God please
God please
Whisper to me
Whisper to me
Let me whisper to you
Let me whisper to you
Track Name: Berlin
Surrender here
The end is clear to see
No world to decend

surrender words
trust those words
And surrender to me

Surrender please
These times are over
Our age undone

Surrender now
These doors tightly closed
Our arms are deeply drawn

Where is the place
Were you once fled?
Under the glaring sun
shadows hang high
hiding all

past privileged words
Never wanted
To ruin your happiness
But here I stand
Delivered
Beside. Between.
Among these ruined dreams.

I knew you well
I know it’s too late
Undeniable
That you’ll meet your end
Crossing long bends.

Undeniable
Never wanted
To ruin your happiness
But here I stand
Delivered
Beside. Between.
Among these ruined dreams.
Track Name: Yorktown
clear fire
whitened eyes
skull and ashes
of your former face

Swollen eyes
lead to the sea

under crests
of murderous high
seeking paths of
moral indifference

External light
bleeding the sky

Mistaken
Yet enlightened
I came for you

your beauty red
I came for you

Forever black
I can never understand
And I question my love
And its relevance at all

And I strike from behind
Making sure to kill
Feeling trembles
and screams

And ill remember
your swollen eyes and
This murderous high
