TBT: Born (2004)

There was once
In a little boy's dream
A city of time
Streets named yesterday
Towers reaching tomorrow

There was once
In a little boy's mind
A man of crime
Old man named savior
Tears reaching regret

There was once
In a little boy's heart
A key to find
Sights named passion
Truths reaching reason

FireBlood

There is almost no fight left
The fire is almost gone
I have no more blood to spare
No more scars that heal
Your touch is the only relief
From this world of pain
Yet I search for purity
Where I can’t stay in denial

There is almost no time left
The fire is almost dark
I have no more light to shine
No more tears that feel
Your heart is the only belief
In this world of lies
Yet I search for clarity
Where I can’t understand confusion

There is almost no love left
The fire is almost cold
I have no more warmth to give
No more life that inspires
Your compassion is the only relief
To this world of redemption
Yet I search for death
Where I can’t be reborn
