All Roads

I was sinking like a stone in the ocean
Drifting away into the black
And it felt like the void was never ending
Forever free falling through the cracks
I was floating somewhere near the middle
When the surface suddenly came into view
And I swam for what felt like ages
With just a shred of hope of breaking through
Therein an act of desperation
I pulled myself up like a mast
And the wind carried me to salvation
Where the roads seemed to be open and vast
I was walking the road to redemption
Suddenly the path split in two
Neither choice was ever certain
Both always led somewhere new
Of all the roads that lie before me
Of all the roads that lie behind
They all seem to lead to glory
But they’re not without mountains to climb
So, may all the roads that lie before
Come to be the ones that lie behind

Revival Song

I saw the gash
And then the blood ran out
Till there was nothing left
Except the trickling sound
I was feeling faint
But hadn’t lost my step
My bleeding heart hadn’t stopped beating yet
I came within sight of the end
And then I revived my pulse again
Oh, it ebbs and flows
I know it feels like the world weighs a ton
When it all comes spiraling down
But good things still come around
We push and pull till our spirit’s break
And hope feels distant like a losing race but
Good things still come around
I took as gasp
Before the air rushed out
Then I was short of breath
All but the whispering sound
I was slipping down
But hadn’t lost my grip
My fleeting strength hadn’t left me yet
I was flickering out as I chased the brink
Until I felt satiated again
Oh, it dims and glows
CHORUS
And I’ve got my
Gazed fixed as I clench my fists
Taking shape as I shed my skin
Grin and bear it until I’ve seen it through
Hoping I’ve got the grit to start anew
Cause it feels like this life’s outgrown
Resonating deep within my bones
It’s hard to say what comes next
But I’ll never know if I don’t take the steps
CHORUS

Nothingness

For the dreams that never died
Just forgot and hung out to dry
And wilt away, every day
It seems they’ll never bloom again
And for the change that never came
Full of promise washed away
To emptiness because we lost our grip
And we couldn’t find our strength again
And through the thick, through the thin
To the brink and back again
Where nothing exists but loneliness
And I never wanted it to end like this
And then it hits and I’m wondering if
I just wanted a taste of it on my lips
Did I need to chew, follow through
Let it sink into my stomach where it sits
Like nothingness
For the ghosts that go unknown
Who want to scream but are scared to choke
On the words they spoke, promises broke
The undying fear we all wind up alone
And then it slips
Through tightened lips
Just a whisper in the distance
If you listen, it’s only there for but an instant
Then it’s gone, gone, gone
Drowned out by the static of the song
And all that’s wrong
And all the longing to belong
But then we lost our voice and we made our choice
And we couldn’t break free from the noise
So, it came to this, a parting gift
One last chance to change before we start to drift
Into something less
Like nothingness
For one last glance at redemption
Before it fades and goes unmentioned
And hides away on darker days
Until nothing left remains
And like shadows bury faces
Moments get wasted
Memories get replaced with
Something less
We’d save our souls
But for how long
Before truth gets washed
And virtue is worn
