MISERY SIGNALS LYRICS

1. A Glimmer Of Hope


I'm not ready to say goodbye
But the closer we get, the more that it hurts
We've already come this far living on stolen moments

I just wanted to understand
Take me back to the places we used to hide
where the earth moved slowly and a glimmer of hope was enough

But the gaslights all burned out
you left me here to walk along a burial ground
I don't blame you
We all give up eventually


2. Luminary


Let shine the dimmest light
I barely see you through the fog that will not lift
Show yourself the way I knew you
With no fear of being pulled by the undertow into gaping holes
You were someone I believed in

Few return the same men as they left

You led me through hell my constant north
You were someone I believed in

To keep you in the sky, untouchable
All that they promised you will drag you under
To keep you in the sky, untouchable
All that they promised you will drag you down under the sea

Stay what you are to me
I'm losing you
A lantern growing dark

To keep you in the sky, untouchable
All that they promised you will drag you under
True colors painted over
You were someone I believed in

As they lower the veil
The stars no longer guide us
Deserted by ghosts of virtue
Scraping the bottom


3. Reborn (An Execution)


Pours out from my veins
It takes a new shape and comes to life
Am I passing down the only gift I had to give?

All of us gather together at the rope, but we dream alone
Eyes agaze that cannot know what was written in my heart
You are the only one

Now what matters most is letting go
An execution for dreams
Avert your eyes from those sent to the gallows

An execution for dreams
So I may be reborn, frozen earth at my grave
When it thaws I'll be gone

They won't find my bones
Pours out from my veins, like a river of virtue to drown the world

You are the only one
You are the only one that sees


4. Carrier


Never again will she see a sunrise awakening over a world unbroken
He brought the night with him beyond the gates while she safely slept
Never again

The way she turns her face from passing strangers is part of her now, echoing
The way she wakes up cold and calls her father's name is part of her now
Echoes of him

Never again will she hear the raindrops fall against the glass and not feel a chill
Transported back to the night it changed and the sound of the front door forced open
She awoke to the panic

Down the stairs she crept
A family he'd never met, broken in pieces
Every single step, every living breath

Underneath her nails, she will carry his pain
When the structure of your new life breaks through the door
It will already be sealed in the past

Every single step, every living breath
Underneath her nails, she will carry his pain
When the structure of her new life broke through the door

It was already sealed in the past


5. Shadows And Depth


We are the torchbearers
In a cold uncaring world, we seek warmth to feel alive
To feel anything at all

Calloused hands lifted toward empty skies
Drifting bodies on a desolate plane
And you, the righteous, listen

Know that those who walk closest to the light are often left blind
Casting shadows, casting stones
So far from where you began

How can you judge the quantity of love that it takes to make something real?
To bring warmth, we must set this world to flame
Watch as the cruel dictators of morality choke on ash and cinder

Together as one
A beacon in the expanse of Lightlessness
We are the torchbearers


6. Lost Relics


A day of reckoning will come when the false men who cowered will be left abandoned.
Pleading for an end

Warming themselves by the ashes and the embers of martyrs
Martyrs that they never understood

They will be lost. Buried in the sands of time
Relics disgraced from an era forgotten
Far too consumed by the allure of wealth
to be concerned for the backs on which they stood

The weak and broken, the castaways out in the cold
they will be left abandoned by those who claim to care

Those who stand proudly on the wrong side of history, mark my words-
Your time will come

The heartless will be the sick and the dying left with nowhere to turn
I hope I have the
strength to help them in their time of need,
To forgive them, though I know they never would have done the same


7. Two Solitudes


There is no time, there will be no revival
When I took you in I was looking for a key
Another solitude to border mine

Holding out for truer lies, born to sharpen knives
The lives we sought to lead became the distances
And soon the years crept in between me and my dearest friends

There is no time, there will be no revival
On the day I broke I was looking for a cure
Laying my head between a lion's jaws

Surrendered to the end, born to sharpen knives
When you poison us does it feel like revenge?
Every scalp that my blade has taken

I laid them at your feet for your judgement
So swing my guilt against me
Does it feel like revenge?

My debts will not be settled, they die with me
My debts will not be paid, they die with me
The taste of blood still on our tongues, we don't stay satisfied for long

The suffering is said to make you strong
But the damages repaid were not enough
We don't stay satisfied for long


8. Departure


One year before the day she swore to me she knew exactly how this would end
You left them once before
And now you've found a reason to finish what you've started

The forfeit of a barren path, this is a death march, an escape from it all
The final defiant act of a broken man
A losing struggle now an absence embraced

Guilt draped like a cross around your neck
Too proud to face the burden you'll become
Words scrawled across a page

Close the door and leave it all behind
A father, a son, you were known by many names
Will they be remembered as your breathing departs?

A funeral call to those who morn this figure withered by the rain
The skies grey, downpour above his plot of freshly carved earth
A fitting epitaph if ever there was

The shot rang out, echoes shattered off the wall
The shot rang out, the shot rang out
Echoes shattered off the wall, the shot rang out

And to this day I still grieve for her
Now haunted forever by that sound


9. The Shallows


"Truth, like gold, is to be obtained not by it's growth, but by washing away from it all that is not gold"
[Leo Tolstoy]

Wash it all away, this replica, wash it all away
We reveal only truths that we have chosen
And tell only secrets of the surface

We offer up our skin, the measure of our worth
As we wade into the shallows
Wash it all away, this replica

The rising tied will wash it all away
Rais the border and the boundaries
We separate lesser evils each in their own compartments

The view from this lense by it's design divides us
Divides us, what of the truth
Only movement in the reaches of gravity can mean anything

Towers were built like castles from the sand, like statues of tyrants
The tide is coming in to wash them away
The towers were built like castles in the sand

The rising tide will wash them away


10. Ursa Minor


Sleeping beneath the sleet, palms to the dirt
No lunar glare to mark our course
Among the apparitions of a potter's field

The nameless, the lost, haunting a hollow so far away
I never meant to end up here, betrayed by constellations
I never meant to end up here, with no bodies of light to guide us home

Collapse into earth and be pulled beyond your quarrel
No lantern, no compass, no map to be found
We set sail against the sorrow having mourned enough

Adrift the current, you are not alone
Even sinking into the darkness that waits below
Beneath the fathomless depths with an ocean upons

Adrift the current, you are not alone
Collapse into earth, be pulled beyond your quarrel
No lantern, no compass, no map to be found

We set sail against the sorrow


11. Everything Will Rust


In the trenches after war, outside the factories
Hidden in the architecture, mimicking the angles
Everything will rust

In the time it takes to lift my best laid plans from the riverbed
Everything will rust
Despite the fear that I feel, there is still enough to bury us

I've come here to worship and scrape my nails into the stone
Hoping to leave my mark, a message to my heir
Are you listening to the wisdom surrounding you?
