lyrics

The best of intentions have done nothing but leave me broken hearted
And still I can't remember just how the whole thing started
How quickly I became a captive to the doubts
Forgetting all along there was that one way out
As the values I knew to be true
Became so distant and abused.
Swallowed up by the hunger of the tempest
Caught off guard I gave in to the tempted
I want to get out of this awful mess.

I have come to the realization that I need something more.
Through all of the misfortune, I have had to deal with my denial
And now it is too obvious for me to deny any longer.
How I need to turn this all around
Remembering what it is to be on sacred ground.
To be released from what entwines me
To open my eyes and finally see.
Raise me from my walking grave
I know my own life I can't save
I want to get back to the better days

Who am I? Why am I here? What’s my purpose? Where am I going?
But there You are! What did You do? You gave up Your life so I might live.

I have come to the realization, that You’re my something more.

Since then, his style has morphed into a hybrid rock / electronica genre with lyrics that reflect his faith in Jesus. ... more

Monochrome
by Scandroid

This album has some serious 80's love going on and is a side project of Klayton, the genius behind Celldweller and Circle Of Dust. Midiboy

In Scarlet & Vile (Special Edition)
by The Echoing Green

This is one of the first synthpop bands I ever got into, and this album is by far their best album and among my favorite synthpop albums of all time. Highly recommend this one! Midiboy

Alpha and Omega (1999)
by Azimuth A.D.

This album right here....so good. It has a 70s vibe to it and yet has a slight electronic folk sound as well, but yet also modern. I love the singer's voice. She's so easy to listen to! Midiboy

Fans of hard rock I think will really appreciate this album. It has a familiar sound that one would swore they've heard while listening to the radio. But yet the message and the presentation I would argue are unique. I also love the renditions of "Agnus Dei" and "Turn your eyes." The arrangements are beautiful. Some parts of this album even gave me some "Phil Collins" vibes. This album does not shy away from its Gospel message which I do respect. I highly recommend giving it a listen! josiah05
