Do you remember me now? Here beneath the seraphim and light Where the halls of Heaven meet us and embrace us with delight How with one last dying wish You ripped perdition from my eyes When you walked on the water - was it a sign of something to come? And if you ate at the tables of harlots and misers than why did you come? I never had a conviction, but I did believe and I was your son So take me, take me with you when I'm gone Do you remember me now? Here beneath the seraphim and light Where the halls of Heaven meet us and embrace us with delight How with one last dying wish You ripped perdition from my eyes There was no provocation - how could we have known what was inside your heart? There was no justification - how could you're suffering not tear us apart? The blood brought illumination - where I could see you for all that you are To touch you, touch you when we're gone Do you remember me now? Here beneath the seraphim and light Where the halls of Heaven meet us and embrace us with delight How with one last dying wish You ripped perdition from my eyes

I'm sleeping in I'm too tired to understand it and too weak to win I'm all turned around I saw something like a blessing, but I burned it down The mirror moves My reflection see me runnin’ and says “I hate you” Well I hate you too I’m just trying to find my balance, what’d I ever to you? Chorus No one knows my name I’m the empty flame They’re all burning blue And the rest of us We’re just ash and dust Have we no more use? I’m alive, but I’m not living What should I do? I’ve been sitting here for hours looking around for you What should I say? When my voice ain’t good for singing and my heart’s too dumb to pray… Chorus I've come unglued Every lie begets another till I’m black and blue I don’t know what's true As I slip into the shadows like I could hide from you Chorus 2 For every hope I hid There’s another kid Eating mud for food And while I drink and fuss From my golden cups He can barely move I don’t wanna die But I can’t keep living here Chorus 3 Heaven wants my name The eternal flame Out beyond the blue To pull the rest of us Through the ash and dust Now the chosen few I’m alive And I want you living here

Imminent 04:25
V1 I looked for love like this before Beneath a cracked and muddy floor I found a grave and nothing more And I fell in I begged for love like this before To bandage every open sore And break down every righteous door To let me in And I believe You The wrath of hell is gone I believe you The flame of Avalon... ...is imminent The elements are screaming, screaming "Imminent!" Imminent I heard of love like this before A heavy sword to end the war And lay our guilt beneath the core Beyond our sin I fought for love like this before In a dream beyond some distant shore We stood our ground with millions more Until the end

Where We Run 05:27
I found a church Hidden by the light And I thought I should open up And be a force A rebel in the fight And give myself to something right Then I found a girl Dizzied by the night And I knew that I could love her well We were orphans We were strangers We were junkies on the run Now we're honest And we're worthy And we're burning in the sun And I found a friend Puzzled by the light And I knew that I could answer him And be a force A candle in the night And we sang until our eyes were bright And he found a girl Buried by a lie And like a busted sail I watched him drown When I hear them sing It inches up my spine A whisper of Your symphony To where we run No demon on our heels

i will give my shirt I will sing your song until i hurt i will seal my fate 'Til they bury me I will bless you first As you soothe my tongue and quench my thirst I will know you well 'Til they bury me You will be my friend You will hold me close as i meet my end You will kiss my face As they bury me As they bury me But I will love you 'Til they bury me

about

Recorded live on on a cold, Minnesota night in December of 2014, "Tombs" explores the reality of afterlife.

credits

released December 20, 2015

It's hard to live a satisfying life of meaning and significance until you figure out what you believe about the afterlife. I've always believed music is the best way to talk about it and to approach it intimately, but from the obvious distance we're bound to. My dad used to tell me growing up that "you're not really living unless you have something in your life worth dying for" and I really wanted to explore that topic in an EP. So proud of this recording and how it came together. Huge thanks to Spencer, Kurt, Joey and Matt B. for being apart of this and doing such an amazing job.
