Like Hell 08:01
I think of you again Like every day, it seems Lost in how I feel A pain that stings like sin Fifteen hundred miles Can't stop you breaking in Rooted deep within That image of your smile You're the light at the tunnel's end That I know I'll never apprehend It's the same old story The heart-broke always tell Waiting for a love Self-trapped in a cell You're my astral guide But all stars must dispel Somehow I'll get the strength To finally say farewell That don't mean I don't miss you like hell I think of you again But know there'll be a time When you're not on my mind Left to oblivion All I can is try To move on day by day A new love will allay This haunted heart's old sighs Soon there'll be another light that saves Me from the dark, this soul-defeating cave It's just another story The heart-broke always tell Waiting for some love Feelings like a cell You will never know Just how hard I fell Yet I'll find the strength To finally say farewell That don't mean I won't miss you like hell

Heat Death 07:05
The sun beats down on us Oppresses with full might The air turns poisonous Feverish fog, our constant blight The heat subjects all below Threatens the end of life A sickness we all know But will not fix despite our strife I hear it in the winds That our doom impends I see it in the sky That our fate shall be fire So how long til we care That we're choking on our air Now's our final turn Before in heat death we burn The cities bake to dust The stinking smell of flesh The forests, parched, combust Choking smoke is stoked afresh The heat subjects all those below Wielded like a knife A peril we all know But cannot fix to save our life I hear it in the winds That our doom impends I see it in the sky That our fate shall be fire So how long til we care That we're choking on our air Now's our final turn Before in heat death We burn

How he loved her He gave her everything, and she took it all How he loved her The world he showed her, but it was too small How he loved her She let him waste away with poisoned veins How he loved her She latched on and burdened him with their pains How he loved her Into his coffin she drove the nail How he loved her She stole his life away and set their tale

Here To Hold 04:58
Please Don't go on me No need to leave Why don't you see That you should Stay Along my way Don't try to stave The hands of fate Please Stay I can't take more heartbreak If you left me alone I can't stand these empty hands With no one here to hold With no one here to hold So please Set me at ease Be what I need Why don't you see What I have Planned To have your hand To be your man Beside to stand Understand I can't take more heartbreak If you left me alone I can't stand these empty hands With no one here to hold With no one here to Hold I can't take another heartbreak If you leave me all alone I can't stand these empty hands With no one here to hold With no one here to Hold

No, it's not love just yet But more than fascination These hearts are still unmet Lit infatuations But with just one glance Or with just one smile Is there some romance Or just your wiles? Oh, when I think of you I don't know what to do Do I concede or keep my heart from you? When you look at me I think you might feel too What good is it to find out if that's true? You make me so confused And now the years gone past And many miles apart That when we crossed paths Then returned the spark And all the former questions All the close-held desire And the once-past obsession To start the wildfire Oh, when I think of you I don't know what to do Do I concede or keep my heart from you? When you look at me I think you might feel too What good is to find out if that's true? You make me so confused

about

These songs were initially recorded for a split album with Waking Hands which never came to fruition. I figured I could release them as singles while I went back to work on my next full album. Now here they all are in one place! Enjoy!
