Sunset Revelations

Lyrics

The End

Setting a Dark Wave mood, The End is a haunting tale of relationships that have decayed and passed. This track ebbs and flows with conflicting emotions resolving in newfound peace.

Lyrics

Running out again
You seem lost my friend
Caught up in the wheel
Time always steals from you and me
This time it’s the end
This time it won’t heal over

The vulture’s here to stay
It feeds on decay
Talons sunk so deep
I lie awake in my sleep
in nightmares of you

This time it’s the end
And this time it’s the end of you

Frozen time a dark sea
A distant memory
Fossilized and never found deep beneath the cold ground
As we walk on our own forgetting all that’s below

And this time it’s the end

Where I’ll find me
Culled from pieces of memory
And it’s the end of this regret
Lest we forget we’ve met
The open wound reminds me
We weren’t meant to be
Take me back where I used to be safe from this memory

I smile alone in the winter of us
In silent ash and fallen dust

The Beast

The Beast is the realization that we must let go of those we once loved whose demons we cannot tame or banish in an act of self protection.

Lyrics

Maybe there’s a watchman after me
Just a sullen shadow in the sea
Maybe there’s a window I could see
Every tired person I could be
And I wanted more than this

You can’t tame a beast oh no
You can’t tame a beast oh no

Patient still I bear your will
Despite that fear of having you near
The face of love and betrayal one the same
You can’t tame a beast oh no

You are still unwanted yeah ooh
And you are still unwanted yeah ooh

Scars on these wall is all I’ve seen
The ghost of my dream is all I’ll be
And now it haunts me

It kills to have faith in love again
It kills to have faith in love again

Meridian

In the gray mist of a hazy morning, Meridian explores the faltering emotions between the sting of a wound and the comfort of forgiveness.

lyrics

Last night I fell from the face of the earth
When I believe it is round
The speed of time forgets lust and only keeps love

And that’s the consequence
And that’s the cost of love and trust
Time betrays us all
I’m looking for my reason to forgive you

Morning I lie awake, tears still undried
The veil of nightmare fades to day
The day eclipsed the dream
The dream I believed
The dream I believed

And promise me you’ll stay
And promise me you’ll stay the same
True love conquers all
I’m willing to risk it all
All with you
