Do you close your eyes and dream in the midst of strife? I'd love to make it come true, but it's not worth my life. Mothers and daughters, come together now and see, That all your lovers and fathers are better off without me. If I could kiss you, you know I'd steal your heart. It's more than hell just waiting here to be loved, or torn apart. These hands don't reach for love anymore. I can't stop breaking the rules and sounding the alarms. I won't stand here and watch as your heart grows thorns. If I had my way, you'd be in my arms. Do you ever wonder why I spend so much time (Close by) from across the room? Do you ever look up, and see me standing there. And daydream what it feels like to bloom? I'm not blind, I know my way through this song and dance. I'm not the kind to be thrown into a trance. But listen closely, I'm here now, and I know it's tough. So you can push, and you can shove, but I swear I won't give up. These hands don't reach for love anymore. I can't stop breaking the rules and sounding the alarms. I won't stand here and watch as your heart grows thorns. If I had my way, you'd be in my arms. Please grant me the chance to make you smile. I'll cherish you like the queen you are, and walk for thousands of miles. I'm awestruck as I watch my dreams unfurl. But I promise you this, you fill me with bliss, my little Oakhurst Girl. (x2) You know what you have to do. I know what I need from you. All I want is to hold you through the night. I know you feel it too when we lock eyes. He's just a predator, I'm here to save you girl.

Killers on the loose tonight. Everyone run and hide. I am just a monster now. I am nothing but hell. I swear to all of my friends, or so I think. I am not the man that you want me to be. If anyone needs a reason to sin, Just open up your door and let me in. Is that what you wanted to hear? Do I entertain your constant fear? Do I make it seem like I'm here to kill? How miserable must I be to treat your thrill? I won't sit and waste away thanks to these lies. I've suffered enough of it time after time. I'm draining the hate that you see in my eyes. All that is left is this weakness of mine. Will I be redeemed? There's a demon that lurks inside of me. I've walked through my personal hell. I'm sorry. Can you hear me scream? My shadow is one of a man who once stood with kings. But time kept on, and I chose to fall. I'm sorry. So where do I go now? I'm lost and alone. With no means to stand, I'm worthless again. I'm better off on my own, than lonely with all of my friends. (If they even exist.) I look upon the stars. (My only friends) And ask who they are (This can't be the end). I hate myself for what you all think that I've become. I'm not a monster, I'm not a hellbound, sinning saint. I'm not addicted to anything but these pills that I take. I'm only human, my heart still beats, like yours. Will I be redeemed? There's a demon that lurks inside of me. I've walked through my personal hell. I'm sorry. Can you hear me scream? My shadow is one of a man who once stood with kings. But time kept on, and I chose to fall. I'm sorry.

Out here, there's no such thing as woe. My compass points you out from the ethereal glow. My heart feels like it's spinning with the quasars. My mind will follow suit with each rotation of a pulsar. So take my hand and fly with the starlight. Here we stand at the center of the galaxy tonight. I would be so impressed if stars could whisper. Nothing short of blessed if we could see them sing. I would be careless floating through the core. Way out in interstellar space, where stars are born. Let's sail the milky way and take our fill of bliss. Let's hop from cluster to cluster and hover through the mist. I'll do my very best to take you so far. We'll find a place to rest within the Serenade of Stars. Down here, there's no such thing as love. Around here, I make my wishes from above. Cold tears are shed in the darkness of the swarm. But all these nebulas will heat us up and keep us warm. I had a revelation, this world was all mine. I've watched the constellations change their shape a million time. I might know how to take off, and i might know how to fly. But I still need my wings to keep me in the sky. So take my hand and fly with the starlight. Here we stand at the center of the galaxy tonight. I would be so impressed if stars could whisper. Nothing short of blessed if we could see them sing. I would be careless floating through the core. Way out in interstellar space, where stars are born. Let's sail the milky way and take our fill of bliss. Let's hop from cluster to cluster and hover through the mist. I'll do my very best to take you so far. We'll find a place to rest within the Serenade of Stars.

I was equipped with a laptop computer. She was equipped with a colorful future. If I could dream, I could dream of somewhere else. But not today. I held my breath while you painted mountains. You quenched my thirst like a water fountain. And it could be that I'm destined to find myself some other way. Calm down, it's not like I've left you here. It's more like I've kept you here. It's where you belong while I'm gone, Saving the world. This town is inching it's way through us. people will move but we stay just out of sight of the scene. Where everyone else seems to gather a gleam. So say anything to me. (It's sure as hell a start) What will we make of this place? And what will we make of these Forest Hearts? My hands begin to fall upon themselves and rip apart. I never thought I'd see the day when I'd collect these Forest Hearts. (x2)

You pulled me out and swallowed me whole. Like nebulas surrounding black holes. Tell me stories of when we were young again. 'Cause I can't recall the hymns or the songs we sang. Gravity, bring us down through the vibrancy of all this grey. I'll wear my jagged crown while standing at Heaven's Gates. You're a flower blooming in the shade, and darling, I'm a forest fire. I'm the eighth cardinal sin, I'm the man that all hell requires. Whisper your love to me, but don't do it so condescending. I've been waiting for you all my life, or so you think. Dream of me like I'm the reason for a heart to beat. There isn't anything I won't do for you, at least until the night is through. You're the prettiest thing that I have ever set my crosshairs on. Don't you think that I can't turn the shallow tides after I'm gone. If you believe that this is love, it's just a waste of my time. You must be horribly mistaken, it's just the demon inside. You have such a beautiful rhythm in your heart. I would be just as quick to take it and rip it all apart. I've been shattered into pieces and tossed into the sand. Won't you pick up all the fragments with your broken hands? Gravity, bring us down through the vibrancy of all this grey. I'll wear my jagged crown while standing at Heaven's Gates. You're a flower blooming in the shade, and darling, I'm a forest fire. I'm the eighth cardinal sin, I'm the man that all hell requires. (x2)

about

Songs of the Spectrum delivers Answered's biggest and dreamiest tracks yet. Smooth, crystalline melodic atmospheres in several instrumentals, alongside dreamy vocalizations, as Answered has become known for. Hard hitting drums behind ambient melodies create the "Dreamstep" genre that Answered has become fond of.
