Spirit Breaker Lyrics

Staring at the walls to pass the time
Pinch myself make sure I'm still alive
I'm not alright It's become a disguise
Friends and family, I'm losing all ties
Staring at the walls to pass the time
Pinch myself, make sure I'm still alive
I've been here before

I will survive another month under gray skies

I'm holding on as a tight as I can
The monotony never seems to end
Every day feels the same
Every day I think about the place I'd rather be than here
I've been here before
I will survive another month under these grey skies
I've been here before
I will survive another month under these grey skies

We've carried each other through and over the seas
We've carried each other through and over the seas

We live for nights like this
The ones we won't forget
Forever remember
We live for nights like this
The ones we won't forget
Forever remember

I hope to open my eyes to see this picture
I'm throwing it all away
I hope to open my eyes to see this moment
That I should treasure forever

Staring at the walls to pass the time
Pinch myself make sure I'm still alive
I'm not alright
It's become a disguise
Friends and family, I'm losing all ties
I'm holding on as tight as I can

Coming home, I don't know when
I'm holding on as tight as I can, I swear

My dearest love, I woke up tired today, even more so than yesterday
How that's possible, I don't even know, nor do I want to
It's hard to find the motivation when you are this drained
My body aches but I'm used to feeling this way
Seventeen down, seventeen to go
That's not so bad, right?
I think of home often and of you even more
Yesterday I saw the sun shining
It appeared for a few minutes just after two
For a moment I found myself smiling
As if those short rays of light were enough to get me by
Maybe that was enough
Thank God, I needed that
I surely needed that

For a moment I found myself smiling
As if those short rays of light were enough to get me by
Maybe that was enough
Thank God, I needed that
I surely needed that
Thank God, I surely needed that

Beauty In Tragedy Lyrics

There is Beauty In Tragedy
The heart won't stop beating,
For the end is a new beginning
Where sorrow pulls the skyline of reality
And restarts a love ever after
As we grasp beyond defeat

So keep us breathing a little longer a little longer
For just one moment with one another with one another
This night is falling on my hearts shame
These feelings bring tears to my eyes

Just take away my world,
Leave my side
Hear the angels sing,
As I embrace you with a warm welcome home
With a warm welcome home
Hear the angels sing
Hear the angels sing

Tomorrow, the air will be a little colder
But I'll be sure to breathe for the both of us.
And the nights
May be a little darker
But I'll be sure to carry the torch to warm the hearts
They're never gonna have to feel yours
I can hear your voice,
I can't hear your voice
But that's okay
'Cause I can feel you in my heart

I can hear your voice,
I can't hear your voice
But that's okay
'Cause I can feel you in my heart

One morning I'll wake up to you,
One morning I'll hear the angels sing.
On that morning we won't be worried about the weather
Nor will we might wither his life
While the clocks alarm.

I'll be sure to write your name in the sun
Where the waves can't wash it away

I'll be sure to write your name in the sun
Where the waves can't wash it away

Until then I'll walk,
Until then I'll breathe in your name!
Never surrender the dream you had for this world to love, to forgive
To make something out of nothing!

I will feel you, I will hear you forever!

Beauty In Tragedy

This song finds vocalist Jake Luhrs singing about the tragedy of the passing of a loved one being softened by the anticipation of their eternal reunion. Guitarist and principal songwriter JB Brubaker told The Alternative Press: "Rumor has it Jake may have shed a tear while doing the vocals over the clean section in the middle. I wasn't there so I can neither confirm nor deny."
