The Fog
06:17

The whispers in the wind are calling out my name
Taking me to the place that I have always stayed
The sorrow in the air is reaching for my throat
The path in the distance becomes less visible
As the fog begins to approach
But I am used the to density of this territory
No matter how far I walk I can never escape
Now take my hand for I'll show you the darker side
These carvings in the walls are what fill my mind
When others portray this path filled with saturation
All I see through my own eyes is white and grey
A blank canvas with nothing on display
I'll make my own palette and colour this path
Each and every day
But I am used to the density of this territory
No matter how far I walk I can never escape
Every time I take another path
Everything seems different
But I know that I'll end up at the start
Now take my hand for I'll show you the darker side
These carvings in the walls are what fill my mind
As the opacity of the fog begins to decrease
The path opens up and the fog is gone
I am free

Time

Time only moves onward as the day will turn to night
Rivers will keep running and the flames still burn high
Time waits for no-one and life is only finite
But the earth will keep moving as the sky begins its twilight
The roots of the trees begins to wrap around itself
Just like our minds after days of weariness
Where nothing is clear we have to wade our way through the abyss
Just to survive but the earth will keep moving until the end of time
No-one has an answer and no-one ever will
Even those who claim their omniscience
Don't spend your life hunting for an answer
Just focus on yourself and nothing else because
Time only moves onward as the day will turn to night
Rivers will keep running and the flames still burn high
Time waits for no-one and life is only finite
But the earth will keep moving as the sky begins its twilight
We've been dying since the day we were born
We strive to find solace before the time that we're gone
Only you have the answer for yourself
Contentment does not come by default
Don't be scared to open your wounds and search within
Stop changing for someone else or you'll drift further away from yourself
Stop changing for someone else
or you'll drift further away from yourself

Wanderer
08:39

We've returned to a place we call home
A labyrinth of darkness and isolation
The light in the distance is one with deception
Yet we long to get close only to be dragged back to the beginning
The clouds above begin to form the mother of all storms
When I needed you the most you were already gone
You took what you wanted and left me in darkness
But now I realise I meant nothing to you
Now I realise I meant nothing to you
I walk alone
Through the night and the fiercest of storms
Traversing the land where the light always escapes from me
I fought through the storm alone and the skies above are clear
The darkness is lurking as I feel it draw near
Out from the shadows you crawl
The darkness has followed you
And caught up to me
I walk alone
Through the night and the fiercest of storms
Traversing the land where darkness reigns over us
I walk alone
Through the night and the fiercest of storms
Traversing the land where the light always escapes from me
I walk alone
Through the night and the fiercest of storms
Traversing the land where darkness reigns over us

Path To Serenity
10:24
|

Sometimes it's best to be alone on this ground we walk
But no man is an island
We give our everything to get nothing in return
We're temporary
We're always second best and never anything more
We're a contingency
Nothing is certain yet we still prepare for the worst
We won't let them walk over us
We're tired but we have a long journey ahead
A path in which we have to alter our perception of ourselves
Come face to face with our demons to silence them
To progress and to climb this mountain of confidence
When you pull yourself out from the darkness
You're stronger than those who put you there
When you've been broken, beyond repair
So many times, yet you rise
When you find your own path to serenity
leave no trail behind
When you find the fire in you heart to carry on
You'll prevail
We're close to the peak but we feel ourselves slipping away
Yet we've come so far
Now is the time that we used all that we've learned
To make it to the top
In the heat of the moment, You're blinded by your own thoughts
The ones that you did not choose but the ones that were forced upon
We're tired but we have a long journey ahead
A path in which we have to alter our perception of ourselves
Come face to face with our demons to silence them
To progress and to climb this mountain of confidence
When you pull yourself out from the darkness
You're stronger than those who put you there
When you've been broken, beyond repair
So many times, yet you rise
When you find your own path to serenity
leave no trail behind
When you find the fire in you heart to carry on
You'll prevail
