about

This is a song where the listener can project there own meaning into the lyrics. It's certainly about overcoming some demon, but I'm not going to specify what that demon is. All of my other songs have distinct meaning and histories, but this one doesn't. It's wide open to interpretation.

lyrics

Darkness brings the specter near
He looks inside me with his eyes full of fear
His chant will slowly fill my brain
I know his tears will wash away my soul like rain
Now I know

Set me free
Echoes through the halls of my mind
A lonely prayer
To embrace the new leave the hatred all behind
Now I know
I’ll steal away a space to live my life
Then I’ll fade away…
The dawn will drive the ghosts away
And both his blinded eyes will wander in the haze
There’s no love inside his arms
It’s so easy to surrender to his charms
Now I know

(Chorus)

I’ve seen eyes from Heaven
I’ve seen eyes from Hell
I have the power to change my life
From a past that could kill
Just let me say what I want
Let me do as I please
Let me scream out in anger
As I fall to my knees

(Chorus)

Grief brought me back to music..

Six years after the death of my brother I started writing again. This album came out of that.
