First single from the debut album coming soon!

lyrics

By the time that all of these lights go out
I’ll leave my mark on these city walls.
When I die, bury me under the stage where
I left my blood and heard the call
To be more than just a desert wanderer
Searching for more sands of time.
So by the time when all of these lights go out
I’ll leave my mark on these city walls.

Rain drops and broken bones never felt so much like home
More than these dimly lit city streets paved with fool’s gold.

Wide awake, laying in a vacant bed
But these night terrors still haunt me.
Terrors that cursed me with a clumsy tongue
And all eyes open on me
To see me as another angel with clipped wings
Following the toll of my bell.
Wide awake laying in a vacant bed
But these night terrors still haunt me.

Father, Father may not forgive me
But Mother Mary already did,
The man stands before you
Is a man that won’t once again kid.
Found myself for I never hid.
