This gentle breeze is bringing back memories of who I once was so long ago, before our fall So strange to feel, so foreign to this life I built before me and you so long ago, before our fall As time goes by, I start to see just how you really treated me so long ago, before our fall I invested in a person I found out was nothing but a pack of lies so long ago, before our fall And what was it all for? The calm before the storm It caused us to transform I gave it all, I gave it all I gave it all for what I gave it all, i gave it all I gave it all for what

The Sound 04:56
Listen to the sound of the running water let it calm you, take you deeper now you needn't worry, not tonight 'cause everything will be alright Listen to the sound of the beating heart the subtle stop, the sudden start you needn't worry, not tonight 'cause everything will be alright The love we had was not the cost it may be hard but isn't lost so close your eyes and take a breath and I'll be there with you Listen to the sound of my slowed breathing my love is here, but life is fleeting you needn't worry, not tonight cause everything will be alright

Great Divide 04:37
A heathen's appetite tells him when it's time to sin I was getting hungry, I needed skin on skin I know you thought we had more I know you thought we'd make it but it could never work out 'cause I didn't give a shit You were just a piece of meat to me to be tasted only once, then one last heave to expel the feelings you left inside there's nothing between you and me, the great divide So go back home and hide out cry yourself to sleep 'cause I am just a monster and you are so naive

Say Goodbye 03:06
The ship has sailed, it's left the harbor but don't be fooled. it couldn't be much harder to leave this life behind and forever say goodbye. We spent so long chasing sodom but all we got were bigger problems now we're in a fight just to stay alive I'll go away so you can stay I'll hide away I'll go away so you can stay I'll hide away
