about

2nd single from the upcoming 'Patterns of Light ' album

lyrics

When the devil arrived
He gave a false sense of warmth
Not knowing they’d burn
They’d burn in his fire
The nights they danced are over
Now they float without a sound
not to disturb the beast
This is not the way it should have been

Her mother’s screams pierce the night
In dark corners she weaves
Blood stains the patterns of light
Shadows lurk beyond her door

Time drags on, in days that never end
Shrouded in darkness, will they shine again?
A mother that’s broken, her daughter unspoken.
The light in their hearts, now dimmed every day

They suffer in torment and cannot get away
Desperate to hold on and live another day
Autumn in tears, holds her mother in fear
Praying to God his end’s already near

Needle and thread is all she wields
while locked in her own mind
Words cannot escape
Freedom is nowhere in sight
as she prays
she prays for his death

Locked in alone they peer outside
Unknown to the world the hell inside
Put on a smile to shield their scars
What’s lost in the fire is who they are
Trembling hands that sow
Woven are her words for all to know

Their prayers to God went unanswered
Strength is all but lost now
Lost now
No fight left, it’s all changed
Every day life among the beast
