(intro) The weight of the world on my shoulders I heal my heart This is my explanation I wanna stay alive Never again with the ghosts of my past they're my enemies I heal my heart The past is dead and gone I'll hush my heart tonight Redeem me from the ashes I'll make it home I'll make it home Redeem me from the ashes (verse) Our words are broken Spiralling downwards Leave this path to self destruction for there is a lasting future My words are broken Run, why don't we run Resist this suffering Is this how we face reality It's like a nightmare While I'm wide awake Refusing to stand down With gritted teeth Refusing to stand down With gritted teeth we brace ourselves (chorus) The weight of the world on my shoulders I heal my heart This is my explanation I wanna stay alive Never again with the ghosts of my past they're my enemies I heal my heart The past is dead and gone I'll hush my heart tonight (verse) We all have difficulty breathing Suffocating in my burdens Judged as liars, bounded by our deeds Eyes like daggers These lips whisper devastation Run, why don't we run Resist this suffering Is this how we face reality It's like a nightmare When I'm wide awake Run, why don't we run Resist this suffering Refusing to stand down With gritted teeth we brace ourselves For heaven's sake, Pray for our hearts Believing in a new hope And a new home (chorus) The weight of the world on my shoulders I heal my heart This is my explanation I wanna stay alive Never again with the ghosts of my past they're my enemies I heal my heart The past is dead and gone I'll hush my heart tonight Redeem me from the ashes I'll make it home I'll make it home I'll make it home I'll make it home With these weak hands, My weakened stance I'll take my throne I'll take my throne I'll take my throne I'll take my throne Redeem me from the ashes I'll make it home (Outro) Run, why don't you run Resist this suffering, Refusing to stand down We're saved by grace

Mi Amor 04:10
(verse) Blinded! I can’t seem to find the light The pain Like a throbbing vein on the side of my head I won’t falter Find! I’ve found hope again These anchors Wont ever hold me down Wasted nights, I’ve been around this life, Suffocating, like a dying flame. Breaking away Refusing you, I’m ashamed of your views The cracks on this face, wounded and weary (Pre chorus) Insisting, for I’m a sinner Neglecting, my own free will Forsaken, for my decisions Inflicted on a hopeless heart (Chorus) Lying Down Was my only escape Dreams and sleep With my eyes wide awake Consciously floating Constantly wishing How a thousand years backwards was a lifetime ago And yet my fears will never be altered Prove to me I'm wrong That you're worthy Cause every time we talk It's like they're hearing Never felt secure I wish you're gone (Verse) Then it hits me so hard I've yet to let go Let it be, let my mind put itself to rest Oh God Please give me the courage To shun these past lives and memories And seek a future of my own We will move on No regrets for what I've done But now I've found the one (Chorus) Prove to me I'm wrong That you're worthy Cause every time we talk It's like they're hearing Never felt secure I wish you're gone Lying Down (Breathe in this hope) Was my only escape Dreams and sleep With my eyes wide awake Consciously floating (Bleed in this oath) Constantly wishing How a thousand years backwards was a lifetime ago And yet my fears will never be altered (Outro) Insisting, for I’m a sinner Neglecting, my own free will Forsaken, for my decisions Inflicted on a hopeless heart

(verse) The past, the hurt They never leave They never fail to haunt me I'm moving forward I just wanna leave I'm sick of all these bad dreams Letters and ink Won't save me Can someone save me Distracted I wanna feel alive The dead and gone keeps coming Everything keeps on playing Alone I feel like I'm dying within I've gone insane I'm losing my mind I'm reminded of every moment but It's moments like these It's a shame, everything's changed consider this a fair exchange Whats the point of it all The past is dead and gone (chorus) Just hold your breathe Fallen from your grace Leave the past Live another day Time will pass We'll grow old Nothing can stop Believe in your own faith We'll pull through, with or without you A room left in my heart I'll embrace this brand new start (verse) I'm seeking, redemption is straight ahead Memories are shattered Our hearts are weathered Memories are shattered Pick up these pieces and take flight Press on and move on The past is dead we have to carry on Press on and move on The past is dead we have to carry on Continue on This journey With faith etched in our hearts We will, never fall apart (chorus) Just leave the past behind Just prove your worth We will never be forsaken Oh God I just wanted to be free Unshackle these vices And the demons within the demons within Just leave the past behind Just prove your worth Hopes of your happily ever after We will never be forsaken Oh God I just wanted to be free To be free (verse) Chasing the future No one lives in the past Alone I feel like I'm dying within I've gone insane I'm losing my mind Through the years Experience It's our time No we have learnt Retrace, Remember What's inside Retrace and Remember Who you are inside Retrace, Remember What's inside Retrace and Remember Who you are inside We won't look back We won't look back There's nothing else to hide

Au Revoir 04:10
(verse) Seek out your sorrow, Concealed deep inside, It’s time to let it go, don’t you dare fucking hide Don’t leave your life to chance And say it’s your only fate Embrace the lies, the past, You gotta make a fucking break. Don’t leave this life to chance, Blaming it all on fate Embrace the lies, the past, We gotta make a fucking break. Purge the demons inside Why don't you forget All that was done, My broken outer shell, Brings relief to my bones, Forgive, All that was done, My broken outer shell, Brings relief to my bones, We have ourselves to blame, Despite all this shame, My heart beats free. No more places to go, Nowhere to run I've seen the strength you've carried inside Let's escape from our misery and forever be free We are no longer prisoners We are no longer Bound by our mistakes, set us free The future lies right ahead No regrets you can do anything We have our moments But even so (verse) You have The power to take control There is no compromise, So just grab hold For opportunities don’t just come and go We have The knowledge to pull us through There is no compromise, Forgive our own Onward we move The demons we slay Would you call me insane? I wanna forget all this pain Today our hopes will be fulfilled Destiny rests in our hands Let these failures motivate you de-enervate as we gravitate, (Chorus) I see the world with my sober eyes Sometimes I wonder why You know it’s wrong, You try to make it right I see the world with my sober eyes Sometimes I wonder why You know its wrong, You try to make it right (Outro) Oh God I won’t let you down Keep my eyes on that crown, For I have earned it. Oh God We won’t let you down Keep our eyes on that crown, Now we’re forgiven. Oh God I won’t let you down Keep my eyes on that crown, For I have earned it. Oh God We won’t let you down Keep our eyes on that crown, Now we’re forgiven.

about

This record is a reflection of certain events that have affected us personally and as a band.

After having come to a crossroad of sorts, having parted ways with half of our band, we had to pick ourselves back up and decide what to do. Whether to simply just quit this dream that we had all shared together, or to start from scratch.

What resulted was a culmination of the emotions we felt and the struggles we've been through translated into these four songs.

We wrote this record to remind ourselves that to be better and stronger individuals, we have to go through these so called disasters, and that in time we will move on, the past is dead and gone.
