lyrics

Dark in the Light

There's a spot in light of the brightest soul
Where the dark still resides, deep inside
Often overlooked, the fragile shell is pushed
Expels the demons in our mind

Hell on earth, in our lives from our own designs
We hold the key, but we're too weak to clear our eyes
Our fallen tears give way to fear and hopelessness
It paralyzes, mesmerizes, and we're locked in place

Why must we wear our hate, a shield around ourselves
Why must we push away the ones that we love
Why do we criticize and say we are alone
Why must we always feed the enemy inside

Make it clear, we tread the path
That we choose to go
And if its choice, it is our voice
on how we choose to live
We wipe our tears and close our ears
to things we think we know
Word from the wise, our wrongs are right....right?

I'm at a loss for words
Cause the dark in the light is seeping out of me
I'm at a loss for words
Cause the victim in you is rubbing off on me
I'm at a loss for words
Cause the things your saying make no sense to me
I'm at a loss for words
But a river of feelings is flowing out of me

I'm at a loss for words
But as time goes by I ball up the pain
I'm at a loss for words
When the life I lived will see the light of day
I'm at a loss for words
But it feels like I have so many things to say
I'm at a loss for words
But my tongue keeps tingling, anticipating

Now We Sleep

What else can I say? This just goes above and beyond. It's not "just" neoclassical music. It's emotional, thought-provoking, and lyrically entertaining! Agent Echo

Misguided
by Infinite Spectrum

supported by 5 fans who also own “Dark in the Light”

Misguided is a progressive metal concept album. Highly technical instrumentation with a heavy dose of keys, sound effects and the all mighty riff. Real good vocals with power and emotion. Very well written and produced dramatic story telling through the sound of progressive metal. Worth a listen if you are a fan of Queensryche, Dream Theater, Kamelot or Pain Of Salvation. Soshanna ♥
