Avalanche 03:09
Don't look at me with the sparkles in your eyes Don't look at me, cause this is all disguise There's more to me than the good you thought you knew There's more to me like I'm sure there's more to you I am a broken stone, full of broken bones I’m an avalanche Singin’ I am a rescue feat, the hardest one you’ll meet I’m an avalanche Don't look expectantly like there's diamonds in my hands Don't look respectfully like I've found some grander plan There's death in me and it's running through and through There's nothing left in me like there's nothing left in you

Gun In Hand 04:40
You've made your mistakes and I've made a few of my own At the end of the day it seems you've made a few more So I'll count all your weaknesses like bullets from a gun And I'll turn a blind eye when your blood begins to run I'll call it a suicide even though there's blood on my hands I know it's my fault your heart died, I hope you'll give me a second chance Cause I blamed you but the gun is in my hand I analyzed the times when we both went up in arms I took all our crimes and made you guilty as charged I found your weaknesses and called them evidence at the scene But I was ignorant to the weaknesses in me I finally see all of this is because of me I fought so hard to believe that my pride would set me free But all that pride provides is pain, it never takes its share of blame Now I know, I finally see all of this is because of me I'm forgiven as I forgive I forgive you for all you did Now I turn my gaze to the places where you can forgive me if you please This is a suicide, death to my selfishness I'm letting this heart die with hopes of a second chance I am made new and I choose new life again The gun is in my hands

Dawn 05:45
Embers floating hazy in the wind Day approaching, waiting to begin But it seems the dawn's prolonging Keeping darkness in the forefront of my mind The bitter cold lays grip upon my skin Cold as death, cold as bitter sin Would you bring a resurrection Would you breathe this imperfection back to life Break the dawn, make haste, take this emptiness away Give me life in my veins, pull me from this lonely grave Break the dawn, make haste, let the light shine on my face Dissolve the night and with it my shame Smoke rises from the coals and fills my lungs The pale glow shows all that I have done Would you heal my imperfection Would you speak your resurrection in this night Break the dawn

Lost Child 06:22
Cross-legged and confused, I have sat here before Same stains are on the carpet, same toys across the floor The darkness shades the colors made I am blinded to the good Like a child with a rusted smile He would shout if he could I’ve been here a while But this doesn’t feel like home Nothing is familiar Have I lost my way, or have we lost this place Going back to where I started Maybe I’ll see the same again I’ll surround myself with old friends And ignore the pain I’m in I’ll close my eyes, no don’t you cry Everything’s perfect out there But what I feel, this is real Devised inside to create care We’ve been here a while But this doesn’t feel like home But we’re here for now We will lose our way But he’ll renew this place
