Come, come to me
On the road
Call, they call to me
Turn in here
Come, they call to me
Louder now
Call, they call to me
Choose your way

All the ways are long
Become the offering
May curse and anger gone
Nearer drawn to me
And the light will bring
Clearer the meaning

Searching out the message
Circle around to see
In the darkness burning endlessly
After all is found
And all refuse to be
Then the air that you breathe
Will bring the end of me
After all is found
And all refuse to be
Then the end that you bring
Will comfort me

All the ways are long (on the road)
Become the offering (turn in here)
May curse and anger gone
Laughter out of grief (choose your home)

Come, come to me
On the road (all the ways are long)
Call, they call to me
Turn in here (become the offering)
Come, they call to me
Nearer, now

Searching out the message
Circle around to see
In the darkness burning endlessly
After all is found
And all refuse to be
Then the air that you breathe
Will bring the end of me

I am now truth (Gibran - Peace XVIII)

Expecting You

Working mix of a recording still in progress. This version replaces a vocal in a couple spots.

I'm not sure how this mix sounds on various systems, so i'd love some feedback re: balancing elements, stereo panning, EQ, etc. (and yes, i do know the singer is shitty, but he's all i've got to work with).

Lyrics:

wait until now to say the things you thought of
say it unto me the way you think you practised it
say to me love that you never thought you would ever be
so full of doubt, the way i think it ought to be

my love, is it so clear?
that you would pick this instance out of the jar?
and what you hold dear
will come around like we are

today is the day we would have celebrated
three years of hate, candles dripping quietly
forever the beast, within you i desecrated
& unleash this feast, for we will forever be

at night, can you still breathe?
your heavy vapors they flood me incessantly
karma, like a vamp,
will come around like we are

it don’t want to leave, my love
it don’t want to ease my hate
it don’t like to feed on me
but it’s gotta shit something…

tell me you fear the day we call an end to it
tell me you want more of my bullshit
say you can’t wait (until) the day we finally call it quits
baby, i need you just to lie a little bit

my love, is it so clear?
that we would pick this moment out of the jar?
and what do you fear?
that we’ll come around like we are…?

like we are.

like we are, mix v12
