Lyrics 

You slipped in like night air through a broken window,
Cold hand on my chest to see if I still breathe.
I said I was done with locks and shackles,
You took my pulse and smiled like you knew me.
The room went quiet—only heartbeats left;
One step closer, I knew who led.

[Pre-Chorus]
I held myself, I played it strong,
Then you pulled me in and proved me wrong.

[Chorus]
Your chains of desire—
Cold metal set on fire.
Pull me closer, let me fall,
All the way where I dissolve.
Your chains of desire—
I run, but you run faster.
If this is prison, pass the sentence—
I wear your name and call it freedom.

[Verse 2]
We wrote no pretty vows, just what kept us awake,
Truth in short lines, sharp as glass.
I said “let me go,” just to hear my voice,
But my body answered first: “don’t pass.”
You locked your gaze; I locked the door—
Two wrongs that fit in the dark we wore.

[Pre-Chorus]
I built my walls without a plan,
You walked straight through and took my hand.

[Chorus]
Your chains of desire—
Cold metal set on fire.
Pull me closer, let me fall,
All the way where I dissolve.
Your chains of desire—
I run, but you run faster.
If this is prison, pass the sentence—
I wear your name and call it freedom.

[Bridge]
Bind me to the night you carry,
Say my name with all lights gone.
If love’s a cage, I’ll chart the stars
On every bar till dawn.
A signal through my body—
An order I want to obey.

[Break / Post-Bridge]
Chain to vein, heart to wire,
Spark to blood—I want more.
Say I’m yours—say it again,
Lose me hard, then find me once more.

[Final Chorus]
Your chains of desire—
Holy wounds I choose to wear.
Pull me under, lift me higher,
Crown of smoke in open air.
If this is prison—let it be;
Your hands the law that sentences me.
Your chains, your chains—
Of desire… I don’t want to be free.

[Outro]
Leave the key under my tongue—
If freedom calls, tell it I’m gone.




The Chains of Desire - REMASTERED - HD

Lyrics 


I’m sitting here, alone on my own
A hollow heart turning into stone
Empty echoes filling up this room


Do they feel it — the ache inside,
Or do we let the truth divide?


The world keeps turning but it’s hard to see,
With all this pain still surrounding me.
Alone on my own — it won’t let me be,
I try to let go… but I can’t set it free.


The news, it screams; the headlines cry,
Broken dreams — another goodbye.
A world on fire and I wonder why.


Do they feel it — the ache inside,
Or do we let the truth divide?


The world keeps turning but it’s hard to see,
With all this pain still surrounding me.
Alone on my own — it won’t let me be,
I try to let go… but I can’t set it free.




If hope’s a seed, it’s buried deep,
In cracks where all the silences creep.
Can we plant it, make it grow?
Or is it lost in the undertow?

The world keeps turning but it’s hard to see,
With all this pain still surrounding me.
Alone on my own — it won’t let me be,
I try to let go… but I can’t set it free.


Alone on my own… it won’t let me be…
I try to let go… but I can’t set it free.

Lyrics 


 “Ooooh/Mmmm”


I’m wiping down these glasses, watching you
There’s a storm behind those quiet eyes
The way you stir that drink with silent hands
Takes me back in time


The wisdom in these wrinkles comes with a price
Every scar carved out a lesson twice
And kid, I’ll tell you what I wish I knew
'Cause no one ever told me true
(No one ever told me true)


Back in '82, thought I had it all
Chased love like sparks into the wind
Burned my hands and watched the bridges fall
Left me learning where I’d been


The wisdom in these wrinkles comes with a price
Every scar carved out a lesson twice
And kid, I’ll tell you what I wish I knew
'Cause no one ever told me true
(No one ever told me true)


See this line here? That’s from ’85
Made a choice I’d give anything to unmake
But each morning, when my reflection stares back
I know what it cost to wake


Listen close — this isn’t just regret
It’s a roadmap built from every misstep
Some wounds fade, others stay like ink
Etched reminders of how we think
I’ve got tales that’d shake a preacher’s soul
And nights where silence took control
But pain’s a teacher, sharp and kind
It carves us into one of a kind


The wisdom in these wrinkles comes with a price
Every scar carved out a lesson twice
And kid, I’ll tell you what I wish I knew
'Cause no one ever told me true


Ooooh, the price we pay
(The price, the price we pay)
Mmmm, to find our way
(To find, to find our way)

Lyrics 


The mountain breathes where the shadows stand
A quiet hymn in the valley's hand
Whispering winds tell tales untold
Of spirits dancing in the morning cold


Mountain spirits call, command
Their whispers shape the earth, they sculpt the land
They make our lives expand, our hearts they command
Oh—mountain spirits… they make us stand


Pebbles roll like time through the stream
Eyes wide open in a waking dream
Roots run deep where the secrets hide
The spirits laugh with the shifting tide


Mountain spirits call, command
Their whispers shape the earth, they sculpt the land
They make our lives expand, our hearts they command
Oh—mountain spirits… they make us stand


A pulse in the ground, a hum in the air
Their song is everywhere—everywhere
No words to speak, no hands to hold
Just echoes of life in the mountain's fold


Mountain spirits call, command
Their whispers shape the earth, they sculpt the land
They make our lives expand, our hearts they command
Oh—mountain spirits… they make us stand

Lyrics 

“Get me out…”)


Woke up on the floor again, bruise-blue dawn
Phone full of ghosts and numbers gone
Promises cut like a shard of glass
Another night I swore I’d pass
Hands that shake like broken wires
Friends turned shadows, deals for liars
Every mirror says the same old line:
“You’re running out of time”


If there’s a door—show me the light
If there’s a rope—pull me upright


I’m on the wrong side of life
Can’t find a hand, can’t find a sky
If someone hears me tonight
Throw me a line, don’t let me die
Get me out, get me out—of the gunshot dreams
Get me out, get me out—of the needle seams
I’m on the wrong side of life
Please, pull me to the other side


Streetlight bleach on a cracked-up face
Blood on the sleeve, another chase
Sirens bloom like a funeral choir
Cold wind cutting through the wire
Mom won’t answer, dad moved on
I’m a map of every wrong
But if there’s breath then there’s a spark—
Help me make it through the dark


If there’s a door—show me the light
If there’s a rope—pull me upright


I’m on the wrong side of life
Can’t find a hand, can’t find a sky
If someone hears me tonight
Throw me a line, don’t let me die
Get me out, get me out—of the gunshot dreams
Get me out, get me out—of the needle seams
I’m on the wrong side of life
Please, pull me to the other side


I don’t need glory—just one clear day,
A voice that says, “We’ll find a way.”
Take these shaking hands, don’t let me fall—
No more dealers, no more brawls.
If mercy’s real then count me in,
Let morning teach my bones again.

 “Hold on—hold on—hold on…”)


I’m on the wrong side of life
But I can see a sliver of light
If someone hears me tonight
Throw me a line—I’ll hold it tight
Get me out, get me out—of the gunshot dreams
Get me out, get me out—of the needle seams
I’m on the wrong side of life—
Please pull me to the other side


 Get me out… to the other side.


On the Wrong Side of Life - REMASTERED - HD

Lyrics 


Ho—hey… ho—hey…


I set my nets where the gray waves breathe,
Salt on my hands, wind under my sleeves.
Sky turns iron, thunder marks the seam—
Far-off lightning splits the dream.
Radio crackles, gulls go still,
Rain runs cold down the gunwale’s steel.
“Storm rolling in,” the old ones say—
I turn the bow and oath my way.


Hold the line — hey-ya (hey-ya)
Under thunder’s hand — hey-ya (hey-ya)
By oath and ember — hey-ya (hey-ya)
We rise, we stand — hey-ya (hey-ya)


Lightning found the ridge behind my door,
Pines like forges with a furnace roar.
Smoke in the throat, sparks in the hay,
I see my children’s shadows pray.
Neighbors running, coats half-on,
Buckets and shovels till the night is gone.
Back to back we raise a wall—
A shield line till the flames fall.


Hold the line — hey-ya (hey-ya)
Under thunder’s hand — hey-ya (hey-ya)
By oath and ember — hey-ya (hey-ya)
We rise, we stand — hey-ya (hey-ya)


(whisper) Stones remember… rivers carry names…
(chant low) Ho—hey… hold the line…
(whisper) Plant our feet in land… bring the fire to sand…


Hold the line — hey-ya (hey-ya)
Under thunder’s hand — hey-ya (hey-ya)
By oath and ember — hey-ya (hey-ya)
We rise, we stand — hey-ya (hey-ya)




Hold the Line Under Thunders Hand - REMASTERED - HD

Lyrics 

Flicker of a face in the corner of my mind
A shadow steps
But it’s not behind
Breath so cold
I hear it sigh
This room remembers
So do I


Deja vu
It loops and it lingers
Ghosts of you
Slipping through my fingers
One is a whisper
The other’s a scream
Deja vu and ghost
Like a fractured dream


Your laugh is a crack in the frozen air
A glitch in the silence
You're everywhere
The past plays tricks
But it’s more than a game
It’s not just echoes
It’s calling my name


Am I chasing you or you chasing me
Or are we just stuck in infinity


Deja vu
It loops and it lingers
Ghosts of you
Slipping through my fingers
One is a whisper
The other’s a scream
Deja vu and ghost
Like a fractured dream


Time’s a hallway
Doors unclose
Every step forward
A backward pose
Are you the memory or the truth I missed
Deja vu and ghost
They coexist


Deja Vu and Ghost - REMASTERED - HD

Lyrics 

Footsteps soft on a mirrored floor,
Every door I try is one I’ve seen before.
Names on the walls, written thin as light,
I blink and the hallway edits the night.


If I turn around—does the past turn too?
If I hold my breath—can I slip through you?


Rooms that remember, halls that repeat,
I’m chasing a shadow that walks in my feet.
Say my name and I’ll cut the wire—
Break this loop, set the ghosts on fire.
Rooms that remember—let me out alive,
I won’t be a rerun in a borrowed life.


Your voice is a key I can almost hear,
Close as a whisper, far as a year.
Photographs breathe when the lights go low,
I reach for the frame and the frame lets go.


If I face the light—will the copy fade?
If I speak the truth—does the echo break?


Rooms that remember, halls that repeat,
I’m chasing a shadow that walks in my feet.
Say my name and I’ll cut the wire—
Break this loop, set the ghosts on fire.
Rooms that remember—let me out alive,
I won’t be a rerun in a borrowed life.


Reverse me gently, stitch the seams,
Let the reel run out of dreams.
One more door—no alibi—
If it’s the exit, I’ll say goodbye.


Rooms that remember, halls that repeat,
I’m more than a shadow that walks in my feet.
Say my name as I cut the wire—
Loop goes quiet, ashes of fire.
Rooms that remember—open, let me drive—
I’m not a rerun—I’m leaving alive.


(One breath, one step—the hallway lets me through)

Rooms That Remember - REMASTERED - HD

Lyrics 

Static in the hallway, breathing in code
Numbers on the ceiling, secrets I know
Finger on the dial where the night runs cold
I tune you in and out like a radio


If I hold my breath—will the noise get clearer?
If I shut my eyes—do you come in nearer?


I’m a shadow receiver
Tuned to the fever
Static in my blood till the signal gets clearer
Say the word, I’ll believe ya
Cut through the ether
Call me by my name like a midnight healer
(Shadow—receiver)


Footsteps in a loop where the neon bends
Glitches in your shape like it never ends
Every little echo writes another line
I catch a half-truth, call it almost mine


If I break the loop—will the past run thinner?
If I face the light—do we change the picture?


I’m a shadow receiver…



“Are you there?—come in—come in—”


I’m a shadow receiver…
Tuned to the fever…
Call me by my name—make the signal clearer




Shadow Receiver - REMASTERED - HD

Lyrics 

Streetlight hum and a sleepless sky,
Two of me walking, one of me lies.
Footprints double on the mirrored tar,
I feel you calling from a moving star.


If I stop the frame—will the ghost step out?
If I change my name—will you hear me now?


Parallax heart—out of line,
Beating in two places at the same time.
Say the word—pull me tight,
Snap me into focus in the neon night.
Parallax heart—don’t divide,
Stitch my shadow to the brighter side.


Glitches bloom in the window glass,
Half of me present, half of me past.
Signal stutters in a radio rain,
I tune for mercy, I get your name.


If I cut the loop—will the echo fade?
If I face the truth—can we break this lay?


Parallax heart—out of line…


Hold the shot—breathe it back,
Hands like anchors on the track.
Count to ten—let it start,
One true image, one true heart.


Parallax heart—come alive,
Beating in one rhythm, one clear light.
Say the word—pull me tight,
Snap me into focus in the neon night.
