1. Slow Temple 4:58
You are so afraid
Of what others think
Afraid to speak the truth

This is not in love
Saving face
Superficial ways

Now is the time to
Make your life count

Live by design
Life is divine
Seek and ye shall find

The way that you live and the way that you want it to be
Are two different things
Living two different dreams

An open rebuke is better than love secretly
Say what you mean
Say what you mean

Now is the time to
Make your life count

Live by design
Life is divine
Seek and ye shall find

Hold your faith




Eternal Sun (EP, June 29, 2015, SkyBurnsBlack Records) (CD, Digital)

1. Halo Of Bats 4:57
Our ignorance is not bliss
But misery that inflicts its wounds
On everything I see
Corrupting our view of eternity
What is your motivation
Why are you alive
Where is your determination
Questions haunt your mind
Where is your life
Tell me your story
And I'll show you a man
Who has found his way
This is our song
This is our glory
Resurrection rewrites your story
I have nothing
Left to hold onto
Naked I arrive
And broken I will leave
But I will shine like the sun
In the kingdom of light
What can death hold on to me
What is your motivation
Why are you alive
Where is your determination
Questions haunt your mind
Where is your life
I glance at death
With an irreverent posture
And seek life
With a furious indifference
I drink life like water
And death like wine
Come as you are
It's the only way you can
Refining with fire
Is part of the plan
Grow through pain
The paradox of life
Suffering to hope
Forever we will dine
Forever we will dine
Forever we will dine
All of my life
All of my life
Poured out before you
All of my faith
All of my faith
Directed to you
What do I fear when
I no longer fear death

2. Eternal Sun 3:48
Everyone is searching
For a transcendence
Longing for something
More than our experience
I become disillusioned
Destined to make
Myself a god
Quickly I come to
The end of myself
An unwritten future when
We first became friends

You told me you
Would forget the past
Unending journey
We can now begin

How quickly it turned
To doctrine and of
Just following rules
Instead of the simple
Joy of following you
My soul is vexed by
The teaching of men
Astute they may be
I have lost my way again
Everyone searching
For a transcendence
Longing for something
More than our experience
Quickly I see
My need for faith

An unwritten future when
We first became friends
You told me you
Would forget the past
Unending journey
We can now begin

What do you want from me
More than simple faith
I long for the land
Of the sun
As my weary eyes grow dim
All of my life
All of my life
Searching for you
Suspend your disbelief and
Come and dream with me
If imagination cannot
Be made real
The disconnect is worse
The disconnect is worse
Than I perceived

3. Underdogs 7:05
Help me love who I am
And to see who I can become
I fight because I love
Because I can see what's possible
I will not quit
Just because you don't believe in me
I will not stop

I need to fly
I need to dream
I need to be the man
I am supposed to be
A seed looks different
Than the tree
I train my mind
Trained to believe

Help me love who I am
And to see who I can become
I fight because I love
Because I can see what's possible
I will not quit
Just because you don't believe in me
I will not stop

I need to fly
I need to dream
I need to be the man
I am supposed to be
A seed looks different
Than the tree
I train my mind
Trained to believe

If tomorrow never comes
Will you be content
With what you've done
Time ticks away from you
Will you let others
Define what you do
I will not, I will not
I will not settle for anything
Less than my full potential
I will not let you
Define my limitations
I have purpose
I have passion
I have destiny
Purpose, passion, destiny
Purpose, passion, destiny
Purpose, passion, destiny
I will fight
I will fight for you
I will fight
I will fight for you
And now that the day is gone
I will let sorrow go
A new day has dawned
And I will prepare for a new tomorrow
A new day has dawned
And I will prepare for a new tomorrow
A new day has dawned
And I will prepare for a new tomorrow




As The Flame (single, April 5, 2017, SkyBurnsBlack Records) (Digital)

1. As The Flame 4:05
Set a fire and watch me
Set a fire and watch me burn
Set a fire and watch me
Set a fire
Set a fire
Set a fire and watch me
Set a fire and watch me burn

You can't kill a thought with a gun
Much less the Spirit with a bullet
You can't kill a thought with a gun
Much less the trigger when you pull it

I will not die
Even though the fire consumes my life

Set a fire and watch me
Set a fire and watch me burn
Set a fire and watch me
Set a fire
Set a fire
Set a fire and watch me
Set a fire and watch me burn

Set a fire
And watch me burn

You can't kill a thought with a gun
Much less the Spirit with a bullet
You can't kill a thought with a gun
Much less the trigger when you pull it

Peace will prevail
On Earth as it touches Heaven

Blood will be spilled by the innocent
But not in vain

Blood will be spilled by the innocent
But not in vain

I feel my soul escaping
Bodies sewn for the great unveiling

Take me to the peak of life
And never let me go
Light a fire behind these eyes
And fill the ocean of my soul

Take me to the peak of life
And never let me go
Light a fire behind these eyes
And fill the ocean of my soul

Fill the ocean
Fill the ocean of my soul
