about
"Death is certain, replacing both the siren-song of Paradise and the dread of Hell. Life on this earth, with all its mystery and beauty and pain, is then to be lived far more intensely: we stumble and get up, we are sad, confident, insecure, feel loneliness and joy and love. There is nothing more; but I want nothing more." Christopher Hitchens

lyrics
Verse 1
Was it love that brought you here
A hapless soldier in an endless war
Adrift on a sea of rage and perils
But life has robbed you of options
Chorus
Lies, when I hold you to the light
Fears, the cry of child in the night.
Pain, just call my name in the rain
Dreams, A bed of thorns with no pain
Verse 2
On an ocean filled with the truth
It is the lies that make the shore
The quiet makes life much louder
Like a heart in need of a soul
Verse 3
One path that looks like another
One lonely road leads to another
Was it rage that lead you to the edge
Or the sound of dirt upon the lid
Was it love that brought you here
A hapless soldier in an endless war
Adrift on a sea of rage and perils
But life has robbed you of options
Chorus
Lies, when I hold you to the light
Fears, the cry of child in the night.
Pain, just call my name in the rain
Dreams, A bed of thorns with no pain
Verse 2
On an ocean filled with the truth
It is the lies that make the shore
The quiet makes life much louder
Like a heart in need of a soul
Verse 3
One path that looks like another
One lonely road leads to another
Was it rage that lead you to the edge
Or the sound of dirt upon the lid
