THE LIGHT THE DARK LYRICS

1. Miserable Old Sea

[Part 1: Realisation(s) begins]

When everything we see
is all of this life we perceive
endless nothingness with nothing left
a dried up ocean fucking bed
no path paved
to remain lost until the grave
endless nothingness be your salvation!

I used to see the golden sky in setting suns
now all I see, a warning of the darkness to come
I used to feel emotions but who's too say
they were ever anything but illusion.

Ironic how wrong I was with it
everything with everything!

What was that feeling I left behind?
When I was younger was my heart really mine?
a lifetime in learning about myself
not knowing what my heart really felt

The more we see the more we grieve
endless nothingness
is ignorance better than knowing life's morbidness?
or is it death
is it death, when in peace we rest?
Endless nothingness
will expose the greatest lie too all

As the final beat, closes our life song
awareness fades away, paying any cost
exposing this great lie of all time
You mother fuckers are wrong!
We all, leave here, the same way,
no awareness again,
not even of our own fate,
endless nothingness

Wide eyes woes tire as soul leaves the
atmosphere home is no longer homely
these cities we roam
stand now to remind what the sky takes
We do not deserve more!
We do not deserve more!
How fucking dare you all!

2. Fold

Just as I thought
this dead end left me
reminded of who
is truly there for me

In wolfs clothing
so many sheep
loyal as fucking death
with no fight for anything
I'm still here
I'm still fucking here
removing ball and chain
there's far too much at stake

Each mistake makes us who we are

I don't believe in love
only in dreams and lust
so when I cut off my nose
to spite my face
I don't give a fuck

Your stone heart
made me lose faith in love
like when I lost my faith in god
and when your reaching out your hands
for someone that you love
just know that I've walked away

I just cant believe
some of the things I've seen
I have to shut it off
the only way for peace
I'm still here
times killed trust and fear
as a snake sheds dead skin
I shed my fucking heart

Now its so fucking clear
knowledge brings discontent
more fears and temptations
reality's bitter truth

If we could be perfect
we'd see true meaningless
what's the sense in wisdom
If it swallows desire
If I could just restart
I'd carefully choose my path
some things I'd leave unknown
to be the man I should have been

3. The Hollows

Heaven needed angels
each torn from a mothers arms
taken by the faceless
left behind a trail of broken hearts

We're only as alive
as fate lets us be
now frozen pinned against the flowing
of times restless stream
Just a kid
still so much left too see
now realise we had it all
when its trapped in memories

A red ocean on the floor
My life before my eyes
My heart in my mouth

And don't we all want
another lifetime
another chance to get everything right
that we fucked up
and don't we all need
another heartbeat
another chance to get everything right

We live what hand were dealt
to win or lose lay on chance
the cost of living we face an end
no one said this is fair
We're all just dying to live
I thought we were invincible
how fragile we are

A red ocean on the floor
My life before my eyes
I think about all those times

4. Juniper

So this is it
this is it right here
though dreams always imagined
so much more
its the pathway that we take
it was never the destination
(and) all I want is to forget

Familiar with bearing weight of the world
so much sacrificed as achievements
be forgotten oh
That very instant discarded and replaced
disapproval of myself remains
be forever lost

So this is it
this is it right here
though dreams always imagined
so much more
its the pathway that we take
it was never the destination
and all I want is to forget
oh fuck

This pathway to...
the realisation nothings enough
I tried I tried
This pathway to hell
paved by my own choices
I tried I...
I was made for regret

Beneath the southern hole in the sky
What I've given I'm never getting again inside

agreed I've never been good at judgement
for people like you judging seems to come so naturally
so what happened to my heart
you wanna know what happened to my heart?
I didn't let it fucking beat me!

We couldn't see the light, until dust had filled the air
couldn't see what I had until dark times made it clear

5. Sin And Scere

Plagued by pessimism and
hate, a fucking sea of victims
If Happiness comes from within,
give me a blade I'm lost with it!

Trying to hold on

Pain, this fascination led us straight to the end
and now your fucking lost
cos unwillingness to progress
is disciplined by failure

Unlike the stars up in the sky
I won't just sit and be burned until there's nothing left of me

My dear I've seen too much to walk away now
Sometimes the hardest choice to make is the right one

Blind unless in hindsight
as time fly's by we live our lives like
we are dying.
we are trying to hold on,
when every day is a struggle for hate or for love we'll
drag our lives through the shit
Waiting for the truth, waiting for the truth
when it was right here all along.

You'd be the best at everything
if any of your words were true
oh deceiver, always bigger
now there's no room left for you

Fee Fi Fo fuck you!

[Part 1 ends]

6. Sickness From The Sky

[Part 2: Detachment begins]

A bird I will be,
from the sky I will sweep you off your feet
A burdon you'll see,
when you realise I'm either high or nowhere seen
Cursed by wings,
try keep feet on the ground but they're just part of me
Cos now I see,
I'm not for this earth and you deserve more than me

Contentments undesired
weighed down by our impermanence
life replaces death
puts perspective our insignificance

Eternity has no place for us!

What a fucking mess
delusion of life's purpose sparked
soul devotion
for light ahead that's dwarfed by beauty here

Deep down we know its over
deep down we know everything ends
without reason it goes by
no miracles bitch
just our dreams and everything we need
we reap, what we sow!

One day you'll realise, our in-detachable souls
will waste away, just like our flesh in time
We only get one try, the biggest sin of all
is to waste our lives, this is ours, take it back

Hallowed not be the name
Hollow be the sky
Halo's guide the slaves
Alone we all die

Your disregard insults your fortune
negativity
irises filter out the good...
we have everything!

Wishing time away
self preservation
contempt with losing everyone
for time to wash memory of us away

Contentments undesired
weighed down by our impermanence
life replaces death
puts perspective our insignificance

From emptiness we came
To emptiness we return

7. Fire Water Ice

Not a tear is shed
as your heart is traded
needs already met
but chest remains vacant
till needle jets red
this thought never ages
a stain kept till death
in need of an afterlife

On time,
enough to catch the ending
be left with nothing sentimental when spending
each moment fucked
Giving up, giving up
on life
cos I have seen the beauty
now nothings ever gonna be enough to me
each moment fucked
giving up, giving up

Like storms we hold the bad in
or we just start falling
with nothing but emptiness
until we hit the ground
There's nothing but now
reflected in memories
we cause our own fate
in need of an afterlife

When it boils down to shit
Rest for it
When choices consequent you'll rest for ever

8. Worry

The blanket of youth
nothing could touch us
with heads in the clouds
aspiration was a drug
that pulled us like the tide
to rise with the moon
morning replacing night
when every fucking wrong is right

Why don't we see the now
just memory's nostalgia
as life just slips away
cos time shows no mercy fuck.
why don't we see the now
just memory's nostalgia

Those days are gone
they're gone and they're not coming back

I die a little bit inside
with every single day that goes by
look at me now
I'm still alive
I'm just a little more lost now
a little more aware of people's intentions
look at me now
I'm still alive

Untouched by times hands
from Fairburn to Riseley St
we never fucking gave a fuck
no sense of mortality
beyond the horizon
lay our destiny
the destination is our dreams

Life feels like it slipped right through my hands

The only constant is time
so foolish to think its on my side
as light hits eyes the moments over
just a collection of memories
this is our identity.. our soul
we found blind in the unknown
to live is what were here for
make it fucking last!

[Part 2 ends]
