The skies are still and I'm falling faster I've got time to kill but no forever-after! I looked behind my eyes not knowing what to find I peered behind the lines and became lost within my mind Don't look within yourself! Unless you're prepared to see what lives where you are empty! Don't dig where horrors lie! Unless you're prepared to find! what your misery's left behind! The walls are bare and I'm clawing deeper I've no thought to spare and the stairs are getting steeper I pulled back the torn skin not expecting to even bleed I winced at what's within and cried to behold what I had freed Don't look within yourself! Unless you're prepared to see what lives where you are empty! Don't dig where horrors lie! Unless you're prepared to find! what your misery's left behind! I found the song of my soul I tried to listen to it! I felt it swallow me whole and I slowly give into it! adrift in darker tides and I'm going out to sea! the thing that lurks inside is taking over me! I looked inside myself and expected a wound, consumed, I looked inside of myself and expected suffering But I looked inside of myself and I found nothing...

Truth Is In The Goodbyes

By Karlo Čavlović

Abusive relationships are a big problem and in those situations we face some of the worst feelings. You think you're not good enough and you can't do any better so you stay with this abusive person even though it's destroying you. The best option is to leave, as hard as it may seem.

I Wanna Do it All

By Brian Hendrix

Just the way we feel sometimes in love. All the lifetime full of things we can do, we're eager to just do them right away. Everyone has likely felt love with that new-penny shine. This is about that. Someone who wants to do it all with the person they love. I really love the way this chorus came out; it's so catchy yet not derivative.
