Tears on a Desert Spring (2017)

You told the oceans to calm

you told my spirit to move

And in the labyrinth of thoughts where I had wandered so long

Knew I belonged to you


I hear you singing out a mournful tune

Your voice is soft but it's clear

And through mountains and springs it brought me to my knees

There's no power could move me from here


Cause you're the only one I know

Can make the sunlight dance and frozen rivers flow

You shine so bright in your defiance

I'd shift eh world just to let you know


You count your stumbling steps

And question how much further you'll have to go

You've got those ropes dug deep into your hands

Keeping tension on your bow

And I can't make the monsters cower

or guide you outside of this maze

But I'll make my stand in hell beside you

Until the mountains wear away

I'd rather memorize your darkness, and see you clear with open eyes

Then live a thousand lives of safety without the stars you hung to shine


I fear the shadow of the silence

And the raging storm it sounds

But in your song I found the courage

To lay my weapons on the ground


You won't be lonely

no, not this time
