Lyrics:
Down at the bottom
A blossom in ashes...
Trying to mend...
Anchored in shadow and reaching for light...
Reaching for light...

Let me raise you higher...
Away from all this...
Past the endless night into light... to light...
You've carried this pain for far too long...
You've carried this pain for far too long...

Anchored in shadow and reaching for light...
Reaching for light...
For your life...

I'll carry your burdens...
I'll carry you home...

Nightbloom

The track features Aurora Adams, from the band King Eddie on vocals.

The colors drained from those engaged,
The pulses diverging from dissonant static,
I'm rattling your cage, I'm trying to reach you
Don't let it end like this.

We have plans for you.

Someone's tugging on my heartstrings
Hovering patiently above my shell
A beacon towards the frozen surface
Don't make a mess of this.

You've returned the key to your heart to the manufacturer.
You can't retrieve it. Your signal's waning.
Wait in line for abortion.
Join us. Abandon this.

We Have Plans For You (feat. Aurora Adams)

I have failed you.
I have failed you.
I promised you, I promised you
I have failed you.

Silently you lay
Still and peaceful.
Unplugged from the universe
Last breath escaped, 
All circuits disconnected.
I await the hand of my terminal cradle
To carry me across zero.
On windless sails
Moved by whispers
I'll cross over.

Silently you speak
Of a world that shunned you.
With closed eyes and parted lips
Kissing the cold, cold ground
As the earth below becomes my home.
As the earth below becomes my home.

I have failed you.
I have failed you.
I promised you, I promised you
I have failed you.

Exit Bag

The guitar melody for this track was composed by Joshua Mitcham.

Please send the ambulance back
Please send the ambulance back
Oh, can't I make this flat line go away?

(Chorus)
The remnants of these trails still cling to my veins.
The image portrayed now is not the same.
The cobwebs have spun themselves once again.
The cobwebs have spun themselves once again.

Please send the ambulance back
Please send the ambulance back
Oh, can’t I make this flat line go away?

I hear the sirens waning
I hear the sirens waning
Is it my breath or my story's ending?

(Chorus) 

Send the Ambulance Back

Featuring Tom Fleury on Saxophone.

This song is dedicated to the memory of S.Y.
May we always work together to make the world a happier place.

Worthless weight
Upsetting gravity
I'll be forgiven today.
Let me into the road.

Fill the concrete
Every crack and pore
My last happy home.
Let me into the road.

Let me into the road.
Don't blame the hearse for my death.

Don't Blame the Hearse (feat. Tom Fleury)

Or I'll crack the veil.
Give me one reprise or
I'll leave this place ruined.
Give me one revival
Or I'll destroy everything.
Take off these shackles
I will make this right.

With a fist to the sky and a promise to keep.
With a fist to the sky I have to believe.
With a fist to the sky and a promise to keep.
With a fist to the sky I'll...

Let me out.

(Chorus)

With a fist to the sky and a promise to keep.
With a fist to the sky I have to believe.
With a fist to the sky and a promise to keep.
With a fist to the sky I'll...

Fist to the Sky

(Chorus)
Crawling in a hole between solar systems
Beneath its weight and pressure I call out your name.
As they march me toward the inverse zenith
Hands bound and led toward the end of days.

The marks on my wrist are a map for the phantoms
To guide to my home among the debris.
All of the ghosts want a host for their keeping
And I am their chosen entity.
Skeletons in my closet
Bones exposed to all the wasted years spent in idle speeds.
A skull foretelling my wastefulness
The smell of your bittersweet memory surrounding me.

(Chorus)


Between Solar Systems

This track features Tom Fluery on Saxophone.

Let the ghosts wander
As empty shells of former dreamers.
As my guilt breached the veneer
Something will change
Monday will come.
As I floated beneath the null
Something will change
Monday will come.

(Chorus)
I've been waiting for the moment when you
Show me the hollow where you chose to lay.
I've traveled through death's door to find you
Why didn't you meet me at least halfway?

Took the fastest ride I could
To meet you here, but I can't find you.
I thought for sure if I followed you
You'd be waiting. You're not here.
I came upon these streets for a reason
Have you sent these specters to find me?
I certainly didn't come here for nothing.
I have to trust them
Monday will come.

(Chorus)

Your image plays and plays
A broken record in my head.
The streetlight flickers.
Ghosts, come wander now.
Moths, mosquitoes, gather 'round.
Come, and cling to the light. Cling to the light.
From the dusk of the darkest Sunday
Monday will come.

From the Dusk of Dark Sunday (feat. Tom Fleury)

The narrative in this track was written by Curtis Tibbs.

'When the dawn broke upon my flesh...
I open my tired eyes, aching and red.
I focused, for once, not on the pain... 
But on moving forward.
So much had happened...
So much had been lost...

And it was then, in the event horizon, 
I realized just how far I had come.
There was still a long way to go, but I was ready now.

My footsteps continued, down through many corridors...
Infinite and sterile. Yet on I walked,
And as I approached the seamless doors before me...
I was awash with light.

...Monday has come.'
