1. CLOUDS - BURIED IN SAND (WITH KAYLA DIXON)

Above all, all the pain
We belong
To the wind, unto change we will call

(To the wind, unto change we will call)

Call you to my arms, but you’re lost
Desert wind
We are just a mirage
Broken souls and bones
Covered in dust
Let the monster go
Knowing I must

(Heard your sound so I will stay
One I’ve found another way
Memories that we replay
Melt away as darkness fades
To a new day)

Harder we search, farther we fall
Knowing we can never win
Anything, everything at all
With hearts buried in sand
Invade me
Slip in through the cracks
Souls pass through
Our desperate grasp

I understand, you taught me well
Disconnect from this utter hell
Invade me
Slip in through the cracks

Above all, all the pain
We belong
To the wind, unto change we will call

Buried in sand

(We belong)
(We will call)


2. CLOUDS - UNRAVEL (WITH SYLVAINE)

Wound on wound
Threads stretched thin
Unravel
The beauty long gone
Unbearable
Grief rising
A flood wave of
Freshly shed tears

Rid of happiness
Drenching our hearts
Rid of happiness,
In mourning we stand

Wound on wound
Threads stretched thin
Unravel
The beauty long gone


3. CLOUDS - HOLLOW (WITH CALEB BERGEN)

Come
Enter sleep of sheltered lies
I sense a fractured yearning
Time signals, I've spent another strike
Leaving fragments of hope behind

A sacrifice of promise
Emotions failing, collapsing
No signs would lead me, to destiny's favour
A place where focus is denied

This punishment a fitting prize
It enticed me into the bleakness
An eager silhouette
A pleasure for a cynical mind

Each appearance
Leavesits amark on my soul
I'm devolving (Time holds the key)
I count the seconds (I breathe with measure)

Doomed to watch these figures
While forsaking the living
A pitiless fate
Ensures my spiral downwards
Sinking into the void

Taste of a bliss I wish undone
Chills from a sensation reborn
How I wish I had known
This rejection of pain
Would be my weakness

That the pleasure of joy
Could never hold up
To the misery's grip
And the peace I'd known
Would never be seen again

Now the suffering
Leaves a mark on my soul
It would beckon me back to the dark

I empty my cup of hope
Elation oppressed behind my walls
Now I wait in a secret hollow place
For the only comfort that would come my way


4. CLOUDS - SHADOWS (WITH MIHU ILIE)

And there I am
Longing for her
When tears are falling
Dead on the ground

The fear of waking up in the morning just to find out that you’re not here anymore crushes my every bone, like the biggest storm mankind knows
Unsettled and troubled is my mind just bearing the thought that everyone will be dust at some point and the world will be left in ruins

Her short white hair
As time went by
An apparition
Of death itself

No one is spared
No one can stay
Into eternity
That is forbidden

The world is so small, I am falling
Behind the doors, only words in vain
Pick up the my sins and call me
Don’t leave me hanging here in pain

Behind the face of a broken wall
There is my shadow crawling to break free
Desperate to end the freefall
Only to find you, again, forever

Mysterious faces
Walking around me
Sinking slowly
Into the ground

To guide my spirit
To guide my senses
In the unbounded
And so cruel world

I will be senseless
I will be blinded
Without your warm
And frail embrace

So stay with me
A little longer
And keep me safe
From my regrets


5. CLOSENESS

How can I embrace your tears
When you're not here?
Can I hold you in my dream
To have you near?

And the silence brings me tears
On these empty walls
I need to tell you all I feel
But not through words

Can you hear me where you are?
Can you see...
Can you heal me with your love?
Come to me...

I was born where life begun
And I will be there
Nothing further from the sun
If you were not there

And the silence brings me tears
On these empty walls
I need to tell you all I feel
But not through words
