Snowflakes
I can't seem to find my way
Through the wreckage
That we made today
I saw the darkness fall
As we made
One another crawl
Never thought it would come to this again
Never knew how much you could pretend
How can we still carry on
When these days have gone
These days have gone
I felt the look in your eyes
Raining down
Like a thousand knives
In a moments heightened scorn
All our secrets
Were left unadorned
Never thought it would come to this again
Never knew how much you could pretend
How can we still carry on
When these days have gone
These days have gone
These days have gone
These days have gone
Where can we go from here
Still knowing
How we wasted our years
The fruit was so rotten inside
Half hidden
Bound and sanctified
Never thought it would come to this again
Never knew how much you could pretend
How can we still carry on
When these days have gone
These days have gone
These days have gone
These days have gone
And
Just look at all the snowflakes how they're falling down, they're falling down
Take a look at all the snowflakes still coming down, how they're coming down
Just look at all the snowflakes they're falling down, they're falling down
Falling down,
They're falling down
On us

Cage of Hurt
Verse 1
We drift along living through different days
Drifting along caught in the same old ways
We see the signs hidden on decaying walls
Distant signs of a dark impending fall
A dark impending fall
Chorus 1
We're living our lives just caught here in this rage
Living our lives like we lost the need to be saved
to be saved
In this broken minded, heart dividing, cage of hurt
Trapped beneath our wings, rolling in the dirt
In this god forsaken, life defacing cage of hurt
This cage of hurt, hurt
Verse 2
We walk the road eyes on the coming storm
Walking the road wearing our crowns of thorn
We carry our pain like broken scars of pride
Carrying the pain that eats out from inside
That eats out from inside
Chorus 2
We're living our lives just caught here in this rage
Living our lives like we lost the need to be saved
to be saved
In this broken minded, heart dividing, cage of hurt
Trapped beneath our wings, rolling in the dirt
In this god forsaken, life defacing cage of hurt
This cage of hurt, hurt
Verse 3
We watch the light, drowning in the shade
Watching the light, as our life together fades
We see our dreams crawling out to sea
All of the dreams that could have set us free
that could have set us free
Chorus 3
We're living our lives just caught here in this rage
Living our lives like we lost the need to be saved
to be saved
In this broken minded, heart dividing, cage of hurt
Trapped beneath our wings, rolling in the dirt
In this god forsaken, life defacing cage of hurt
This cage of hurt, hurt, hurt

Broken Pieces
I should have just let go
Instead of trying to cling onto the wreckage
I should have just said no
Instead of trying to find a hidden message
Find a hidden message – so
Here I am
Held in a nightmare that never ceases
Here I am
Just trying to hold onto the broken pieces
Broken pieces
Of my life
My life
My life
And as you walked away
All my dreams died like hushed out whispers
I tried to make you stay
But all my pleas felt like empty gestures
Empty gestures - so
Here I am
Held in a nightmare that never ceases
Here I am
Just trying to hold onto the broken pieces
Broken pieces
Of my life
My life
My life
Fade away
Fade away
Fade away
Fade away
And if you did come back
Could we still walk hand in hand together
Or when the lights turned black
Would we stumble down darkened roads forever
Darkened roads forever - so
Here I am
Held in a nightmare that never ceases
Here I am
Just trying to hold onto the broken pieces
Broken pieces
Of my life
My life
My life
I should have just let go

Deep Soul Light © 2019 Danny Elliott
Verse 1
We sit in our fortresses and stare at the night
Watching the skies for a sign of life
We see the world how we want it to be
Out here in the cold
Where vengeance grows old
Verse 2
Footsteps echo on empty stairs
Dark voices circle unaware
Is this the place that we wanted to be
Out here in the cold
Where time gnaws souls
But in our dreams a light shines through
Chorus 1
So let's
Leave our fortresses behind
Leave the life that's left us blind
Out there in the endless night
We will find a deep soul light
We will find a deep soul light
Verse 3
Shades of doubt grow nearer now
Cold reminders of eternal vows
Bitter fruits from a blinded past
Far away from the light
Held by endless night
But in our dreams a light shines through
Chorus 2
So let's
Leave our fortresses behind
Leave the life that's left us blind
Out there in the endless night
We will find a deep soul light
We'll find a deep soul light
Outro
Shine on, shine on
Shine on, shine on
We will
Shine on
We must
Shine on
We will
Shine on
Shine, shine on
In the deep soul
In the deep soul light
