This River Of My Tears

Storms coming
So much feeling in the wind
Something’s blowing through again
Like my so-long west bound friend
Lamentations
For what could and couldn’t be
I hear you calling from the deep
Brace myself for stormy seas
Pierce me with your smile
Sail away, blink back those years
Cast away the line cleave your hand from mine
Washed away on This River of My Tears
Minds racing
Don’t truly know the reason why
But I can’t recall your name
Gotta hang my head and cry
Incantations
Just can’t seem to get them right
Misty sparkling fills my eyes
Got no breath to say goodbye
Pierce me with your smile
Sail away, blink back those years
Cast away the line cleave your hand from mine
Washed away on This River of My Tears
There’s no sense in anything
There’s no way to make it slow
Waves are crashing over me
And I know . . .yes I know . . . you gotta go . . .
Pierce me with your smile
Sail away, blink back those years
Cast away the line cleave your hand from mine
Washed away on This River . . . .
Cleave you hand from mine this one last time
Washed away . . . . . on This River
Washed away . . . . . on This River . . . . . of My Tears

Perdition's Toll

Grab it while you can
Don’t let anything slide
You’re a wanted man
With way to damned much pride
You’re my prison wall
Better jump before I fall
You’re gonna ruin us all . . .
Hear the thunder roll
Stir the waves up high
When you’re in this deep
Ocean fills the sky
Smashin’ off my bones
This price I know . . . is Perdition’s Toll.
Such a hungry man
Your eyes on fire
I watch you bleed
Long white teeth, savage smile
You wanna take me down
But you can’t fool this fool
You’re my drowning pool
Hear the thunder roll
Stir the waves up high
When you’re in this deep
Ocean fills the sky
Smashin’ off my bones
This price I know . . . is Perdition’s Toll.
This darkness has no face
But it’s been my lover
It covers time and place
And feeds me like no other
Hear the thunder roll
Stir the waves up high
When you’re in this deep
Ocean fills the sky
Smashin’ off my bones
This price I know . . . is Perdition’s Toll.

Cain's Regret
03:47

Upon this bed of bones I sleep.
It makes a body strong but tempts the weak.
I knew it all too well but carried on,
along that solemn path that haunts my peace.
The god of destiny is kind
but those who gain from others toil and struggle in their lives,
we can’t see the beauty in the people passing by
as we snatch away the goodness others find.
Yes, I realize my holdings all too well,
closed in upon . . . this wretched plan
that visited, weaved a web and cast its blinding spell.
Now watch my hands, watch my eyes
Check them both again for the perfect lie
As I softly cry to you that my time has come
I whisper Cain’s Regret for songs I’ve sung . . . songs I’ve sung
Take issue once again
With the blood so oily-fresh upon my hands.
Cause still with soft regret I sometimes pine
To kiss your face and tell you I was wrong
But then again, my love
I’ve known it all along
Now watch my hands, watch my eyes
Check them both again for the perfect lie
As I softly cry to you that my time has come
I whisper Cain’s Regret for songs I’ve sung
As I softly cry to you that my time has come
I whisper Cain’s Regret for songs I’ve sung . . . songs I’ve sung . . . songs I’ve sung
