Inky Blackness

Inky Blackness (song)

Looking for light
Searching for a soul
I've been digging in the mud
Trying to find gold
My hands are dirty 
Clothes are torn
I swallowed my pride
But it tasted like scorn

Inky Blackness…
Inky Blackness

Capsized in a toxic sea
Tossed into the waves
Grasping for some levity
My lungs are heavy
Getting hard to breathe
Sinking like rusty iron
Into the endless deep

Inky blackness…
Inky blackness

Silent whispers in the night
Telling me everything will be alright
(Don’t believe it…don’t believe it)
Counting stars from the bottom of a well
A mouth full of secrets with no one to tell 
Walking a tightrope in the dark
Everyone wants a brand new start
But I've got stains upon my heart

Inky blackness...
Inky blackness

Downward Spiral

Downward Spiral (song)

You’re a wandering star

An empty rain cloud blown by the wind

You want to get out

But you always step in

You’re a fast car

Speeding down a dead end street

A stranger every time we meet

Too much to drink

In the middle of the day

Step outside myself

Into a downward spiral as I slip away

Take me down

Take me low

Take me down

Don’t take it slow

Don’t worry baby

There’s a lot farther I can go

Push me off your cliff

Let’s plunge into the unknown

I’m spiraling down

Don’t leave me alone

What do you do?

When the lies you tell yourself don’t come true

You’re surrounded by make believers and soul stealers

The hope I clung to so tight

In the end

Wasn't strong enough to last through the night

The music is playing

But the dance is ending

Soon you’ll be back to that familiar place

Check your mirror

To fix the smile painted on your face

Take me down

Take me low

Take me down

Don’t take it slow

Don’t worry baby

There’s a lot farther I can go

Push me off your cliff

Let’s plunge into the unknown

I’m spiraling down

Don’t leave me alone

I’m remembering things

I never knew

Give me everything I want

Don’t make me choose

Tell me what I want to hear

Tattoo my mind with your lies

Don’t turn me away

You've got me on my knees to pray

Save me…you were gonna be the one to save me

I’m in a downward spiral

But I’m enjoying the ride

I’m a wandering star

A water-less cloud drifting in the wind

Every time I try to get out

I always step back in

Take me down

Take me down low

Take me down

Help me lose control

Push me off your cliff

Lets see how far we can go

I'm spiraling out of my soul

Shades of Grey

Shades of grey

Colours on your face

Pain wrenched from tight clenched fists

No compromise in trying to exist

But blood cannot wash away

These shades of grey

Touch

Touch their skin with your hands

Still you won’t understand

Nothing you do and nothing you say

Will ever remove

The shades of grey

Look in your heart

Take a look in my eyes

Everyday innocent men still die

And every day

We drift further away

Into these shades of grey

Moment of Clarity

Moment of Clarity (song)

In the fullness of time

Where the tears never dry

When stars refuse to shine

Where the sea always swells

With secrets you never tell

In the middle of the night

Find me in the black

When there is no light

And my eyes go blind

You are all I see…you are all I see

You’re a moment of clarity

Stardust lover

Pull me under

Paint my heart with your colours

Stardust lover

Pull me under

Let me taste all of your wonders

I've been stung by a swarm of bees

You've got a way to bring me to my knees

You're a revelation in an age of reason

A monsoon in dry season

You're my moment of clarity

Like a hole torn in the sky

With a head full of broken rhymes

When sorrow stains my memory

Soothe me with your remedy

I wandered off the path

Where long shadows never fade

I need you to show me the way

When desperation fills my heart

And the day is long as the night is dark

You are all I need…you are all I need

You’re a moment of clarity

Stardust lover

Pull me under

Paint my heart with your colours

Stardust lover

Pull me under

Let me taste all of your wonders

I've been stung by a swarm of bees

You've got a way to bring me to my knees

You're a revelation in an age of reason

A monsoon in dry season

You're my moment of clarity

Your love flashes through my heart

Like lightning in the dark

Stardust lover

Tell me there is no other

The ice is cracking under our feet

If you go

Then pull me under

In the night…in the day

Find a way

I’m blind to everything around me

You are all I see…you are all I see

Everything I want and all that I need

Who I am and what I want to be

You're a revelation in an age of reason

A monsoon in dry season

You're my moment of clarity

You've got a way to bring me to my knees

You are all I see…You are all I see

I need your clarity
