"From the Briar" Lyrics

Black Sheep

Cuz when I close my eyes it hurts,
To see my passions torn apart;
for in my heart my true desires.
But a city in the street lights--
Upon my imperfections leads me home.
For I’ll abide in truth and light.

Hold on to fate--
As it circles round, aiming down
Creating our own weave.

Fade out the black,
As you hold onto grey,
A hasty suicide.


And I promised to the beaten path
And I promised that I’d keep it close,
And I promised I would try.

But there is no life in dust:
So set in stone and traded on;
Our futures can’t decide.

Cuz when I close my eyes it hurts,
To see my passions torn apart;
for in my heart my true desires.
But a city in the street lights--
Upon my imperfections leads me home.
For I’ll abide in truth and light.

Will lights and signs lead you on,
Will you trade the mould for life instead,
Will you follow the road before you?

Laid down by your own passions,
Your candid eyes still see a sore.
Your three lion heads collide.
