1. My Cross to Bear
When the pall of unlight rises above me
and hollow voices fill the night
It strips away the safe surrounding
and leaves the bridge I cross, oh so bare
This Burden this cross that I bear
becomes the wake of yesterday with no hands left to hold
Each day becomes another meting out the time
Soon I learn this cross I bare afflicts one life, that's mine
Mundane and magnificent and all things in between
Leave the holds of yesterday, fall in something new
This Burden, this cross that I bear
becomes the wake of yesterday with no hands left to hold
Each day becomes another meting out the time
Soon I learn this cross I bare afflicts one life, that's mine
Leave the holds of yesterday, fall in something new
The path I never tread before, the live that’s left unlived
becomes my cross to bear, adding to my fear
This Burden this cross that I bear
becomes the wake of yesterday with no hands left to hold
Each day becomes another meting out the time
Soon I learn this cross I bare afflicts one life, that's mine
Soon the lessons learned are lost to yesterday
becomes the wake of yesterday with no hand left to hold
Each day becomes another meting out the time
Now I know this cross I bear afflicts only mine
Yesterday
2. In the Wake of Sin
You share your pain with me
Close your eyes, I still see
Try to absolve all of your sins
You push away, it pulls me in
You hurt so many times before
You’re feeling dead inside again
You bled so many times before
I feel your time is near the end
You try to stand but you fall again
Battered clean so life rings through but you don’t think to see
As the promises fall away, its easy to say that you’ve been broken
Have you ever been whole?
Will you ever be the person who had the chance, the life, the dream
Sadness prevails, all hope is lost
But we come inside to find shelter from the storms of life
But we know that we will never find rest from this incessant storm
3. Samsara
I went to take a journey, leave my home
To shed the world, and be my own
I traveled far and wide and came this way
Brace all you craven fools
Dried up desert in the sands decay
It’s not the principle, it’s what is right
If we are wrong, tell me who is right
Brace all you craven fools, wither and decay
See if the sun will shine on your dying day
The sun has burned my skin
My eyes are hollowed out
Bones stick though skin like pins
Dried up desert, in the sand decay
It’s not the principle, it’s what is right
If we are wrong, tell me who is right
Brace all you craven fools, wither and decay
See if the sun will shine on your dying day
I saw her in a grove, she stared right back at me
I felt my life was changing, I saw it in front of me
Breathing, living, feeling, breathing
Living, feeling, breathing, living
There are no principles to what is right
Everybody’s wrong, nobody here is right
Brace all you craven fools, wither and decay
See if the sun will shine on your dying day
4. This Burden...
5. The Master and the Margarita
I love to feel silk, but only if it’s strange
Different, the variations move me
And the willingness to be used, for the heart’s desire
I feel this certainty, the saddest song I know
Breathing deep the chance of one I’ll meet upon the road
Reign your siege down on me
The saddest song I know
Seer the trust of union, bring back the life I know
Bring back the life I know
I feel this certainty, the saddest song I know
Breathing deep the love of one I’ll meet upon the road
Warmth runs though my heart and falls on spikes of doubt
I am that entity as sure as Yesu and Pilate fall
6. As Angels Fall
