Your Song

Your eyes
I miss them
Life’s sense of humor’s pretty twisted
I feel
So alone
Cause you’re the only thing that I’ve ever known 

Yeah it hurts that I haven’t seen you in so long
And it kills me knowing that you’re already gone
I don’t know what I’m doing cause it feels so wrong
So I’ll  keep writing these words
And they’ll keep singing your song

Whoa oh 
Whoa oh
Whoa oh
They’ll keep singing your song

Not sure
What I miss most
Your smile or the way you’d pull me in close
I’ve tried
To fight it
But our eternal love flame’s been ignited

Yeah it hurts that I haven’t seen you in so long
And it kills me knowing that you’re already gone
I don’t know what I’m doing cause it feels so wrong
So I’ll keep writing these words
And they’ll keep singing your song

Whoa oh 
Whoa oh
Whoa oh
They’ll keep singing your song

Your Song

Track 2 of the Art of Forgiveness EP is finally here!

Following the theme of the forgiveness process, this song is about confronting the negativity that holds you captive and drawing a line.
As always, I hope you enjoy the track!
Lyrics below:

Ruler. Abuser.
Keep us all famished, starved of nourishment.
Watch as we wither and decay.
Do I stand alone in asking you:
"What gives you the power to control?"
What the fuck do I owe you!

You taught us to bend. 
Taught us to break.
Taught us to hate everything.
Have you stole enough?

Despite what you said. 
Despite what you take.
Despite how you hate everything.
Are you strong enough or choking on insecurity?

(That sound in the shadows)
What is it you fear?
Do the ones you've wronged
Keep you paranoid?
Do you feel rebellion in your bones?
Bloodied and wounded I'll suffer abuses no more. 
This wounded dog bites back.

Ruler. Abuser.
Keep us all famished, starved of nourishment.
Watch as we wither and decay.
Do I stand alone in asking you:
"What gives you the power to control?"
What the fuck do I owe you!

Despite what you said. 
Despite what you take.
Despite how you hate everything.
I've learned to hate, how to bend how to break. 
Conditioning only works on the willing. 

When all hope is gone I can find courage. 
What else could you take? 
Find my freedom in loosing everything. 
Bloodied and wounded I'll suffer abuses no more. 
This wounded dog bites back.

Huge huge shout-out to the two amazing singers that worked on this track: u/seanmakesmusic and u/twoeyesopen.

You guys did an amazing job and I truly appreciate all of the effort you put in!

In this song we really tried to capture that early 2000's Underoath style of energy and sound and it's really become one of my favorite tracks to date.

This has been a really really fun one to write and work on and I hope that you guys enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it!

Lyrics:
You’re tripping up
Cast aside the friends that you have
You’re fucking up
Killing all the roots that you had

What did you expect,
What did you expect me to say
You’re not making sense anyway

It's as if in every instance you're making up some symptoms 
for why we'll fall, and it never involves you
You're acting like a victim but we know by your own admission
You'll fake, take, scrape 'til you have it all to yourself

It’s like you wanted this,
ending up alone.
Your blood is on your hands
We gave you what you want
You seemed to have a plan
and so we went along
Marching row by row
Singing our own songs
Singing our own

You’re tripping up
Cast aside the friends that you have
You’re fucking up
Killing all the roots that you had

This is your invitation
To make something of yourself
Don't make us
Expose this front, you're full of lies
You lie to all of us 
It's gone and now I can't believe
We're done, done, done with you 

Now we’re grateful it’s over
Before we come undone
And when you wake in the morning
You won’t have anyone
(We're done, done, done with you)
(We're done, done, done with YOU)
You won't have anyone

Huge shoutout to seanmakesmusic (vocals) and porella (lyrics) for doing such a great job on this track!
The restrictions for this round were pretty tight. The sound had to be the specified bpm, I had to do a C, G, a, F Progression, and it had to repeat after 4 bars.
Was different and fun! I hope you enjoy :)

Lyrics:
Walking down the hall
My heart slows to a crawl
See you passing by in slow motion
But from you I get no such notion

All I ever think about is you
But you don’t even know my name
It’s a shame
But I guess I’m only meant to be a stranger

I hear your laugh, I see your smile
The spark in your bright blues drives me wild
I’d be your player two in life’s game
I just wish you felt the same

All I ever think about is you
But you don’t even know my name
It’s a shame
But I guess I’m only meant to be a stranger

Our eyes lock from across the room
I’m getting nervous, I’m feeling doomed
But you walk towards me and you wave hi
I wave back but it was meant for another guy

All I ever think about is you
But you don’t even know my name
It’s a shame
But I guess I’m only meant to be a stranger

All I ever think about is you
But you don’t even know my name
It’s a shame
But I guess I’m only meant to be a stranger

Lyrics:
Let's go run away
Freedom is this way
I know no other way around

Who knows what we'll see
Who knows where we'll be
All I know is it waits to be found

And oh, you'll love what you see
Living in this fantasy
So come on and escape with me
