Here are some lyrics to a band I know. I was just curious to see what you guys thought of them. I like them a lot personally but I may be biased because I know the band. Anyway, here they are.
Bookends
Dusty pages speak to an open mind
frustration melts away as understanding
makes this simple truth profound
I'm done searching for just another way
I'm pleased to be secure, there's nothing left to fake
I'm done searching for just another way
I need nothing more, You are here to stay
Apathy sets in atrophe, darkness blinds the blind
for certain all the world cannot see
It doesn't want to
The pages all speak life
into dying breath that's been brought low
brought low to know, to know He saves
I'm done searching for just another way
I'm pleased to be secure, there's nothing left to fake
I'm done searching for just another way
I need nothing more, You are here to stay
Another page turned, as we walk into today
Another page turned, as our days fade away
Horseshoes and Hand Grenades
Walled inside my six foot room,
could do nothing but assume
about anything and everyone says there's something to outrun
I've made ammends but can't sit still,
focused on a cheapened thrill
as I fought against the walls unseen and paced the darkness still
between
And I flew through and through
the darkness hiding me
All the time I tried to do things naturally
You take yours and I'll take mine,
there can be a rest inside
if you let go of these chains that hold you down and keep you all alone
You've made ammends but can't sit still,
focused on a cheapened thrill
You fight against the walls unseen and pace the darkness still between
Waiting for tomorrow,
you my friend will meet your end
Waiting for this moment could be all that you have left
Realize that life is only what you make of it
Relative Response
Justify the life inside
Tainting all that's left
By fear and doubt
Surviving on our eloquence
Don't deny it, that life is cold
Embrace it, right is right
Accept it, we've been deceived
Embrace it, wrong is wrong
For some time, I'd give it all
For some space, no need to crawl between the worlds we're in
I can see, there's a call between the worlds we're in
For new life, to live it all
We hope to find a space and time
Where what we think is right
relatively speaking...
On Occasion(s)
A connection with another,
a creation with your hands
Close encounter with providence,
A continuous change of plans
In the struggle for something
Immersion in nothing
Did you get the feeling of occasion?
Fuse ambition with emotion
There's no comfort in seclusion
Circumstances cannot hold me
If I live as who I could be
In the struggle for something
Immersion in nothing
Did you get the feeling of occasion?
And when the hope that's within us breaks wide open
We all know the feeling
On occasion
But a Breath
Bring me from myself,
guide me through this place
Let this be a break
away from the day to day
The day to day
Cornered by my crime, wasting all this time
It's selfishness I know, yet your seed is sown
Cover me again with your love to mend
'Till you're all that's left
My life is but a breath
Bring me from myself,
guide me through this place
Let this be a break
away from the day to day
The day to day
Cover me again with your love to mend
'Till you're all that's left
My life is but a breath
By myself praying,
trying to listen for the sound
of your voice in this prison
needing a secure way from perdition
