"Of Hell, Hope and High Water"
Lyrics by Kevyn Douglas Hay © 2004 Nightfeast Music. All rights reserved.
See them try,
So hard to find,
Your lost ideals, You keep,
In your mind…
Wanting to be,
The reverent one,
Leaving themselves behind,
Leaving themselves undone…
Another sign,
I should not leave behind,
I’ve seen this,
Happen once before…
And they wish,
You’d go away,
Having never, ever wanted
To stay and play…
With these ghost,
And useless prayers,
Held together by the water,
Held together by the clay…
Again they call…
Tempting me to fall…
They don’t know,
I’ve been down for so long…
Been down for so long,
…For so long,
…For so long
Bring me the one they call god, show him how to stand…
Teach them to turn the other cheek, have them hold out their hands…
I stood and watched as virtue died, but I never spoke a word…
We tried not to forget her name, and now only Hope, Hell & Highwater remain…
Highwater…
Highwater…
Highwater…
Remain…
Remain…
Remain…
Remain…
Heavy breathing,
So labored and long,
Close you eyes,
And the dream is gone…
Slowly turn to watch,
And try to yell,
Disappointed by time,
Disappointed by hell…
Although things change,
This life it is so strange,
We are lost,
Never to be found…
Never to be found…
To be found…
To be found…
We are lost,
We are lost,
We are lost,
Found…
Found…
Never to be found…
We are lost,
We are lost,
We are lost,
Found…
Found…
Never to be found…

"Lament For Lanore"
Lyrics by Kevyn Douglas Hay © 2004 Nightfeast Music. All rights reserved.
In the night they come,
So silently,
Try to steal, just like
Thieves…
When the shadows fall,
They lie in wait,
For those moments
Such as these…
As the star fade out,
In the morning light,
Does anyone,
Get to see?
Slowly spinning round,
Dizzy & unbound,
All we want, (is) to be
Free…
Flowers bloom & fade,
Colors dissipate,
They slowly, fade to
Grey…
Lying skin to skin,
Turning inside out,
Pretending, you’re
Afraid…
And that’s all there is,
Is there nothing more?
Sadly laughed at, never
Told…
In your cold hard heart,
Where dwells your soul?
Locked away, without a
Key…
Then walls cave in,
Falling stone by stone,
Secrets held, never
Tell…
And the tear stained clouds,
Weeping on their own,
Shed a tear, just for
Me…
Are you alone?
Do you want to be?
Can you hear them calling?
Are you alone?
Do you want to be?
Can you hear them calling?
What do you need?
When the nights are long?
Are you self indulging?
What do you need?
When the nights are long?
Are you self indulging?
Under golden skies,
When you leave your mind,
How can you, bleed at
All?
All the times I called,
And received your lies,
These words, are your
Own…

"unfaith"
Lyrics by Kevyn Douglas Hay © 2004 Nightfeast Music. All rights reserved.
And she said,
Won’t you come to me...
And she said,
That is the way Its got to be,
And she said,
I will comfort you,
And she said,
There’s nothing you can do…
Am I afflicted with your,
Feminine ways,
I need a reason to be,
Lead astray…
Your satisfyaction,
At my expense,
I leave myself wide open,
With no defense,
With no defense,
With no defense,
With no defense…
You see me,
I smell you,
You know we’re bad for one another…
You tell me,
I listen,
You know we’re bad for one another…
Where do the broken parts go,
When the passion dies…
Put them in a heart shaped box and,
Keep it as a prize,
Open it when you’re lonely,
And be agonized,
Remember what I’ve told you,
These words were lies…
You see me,
I smell you,
You know we’re bad for one another…
You kiss me,
I touch you,
You know we’re bad for one another…
You fuck me,
I fuck you,
You know we’re bad for one another…
You hate me,
I hate you,
You know we’re bad for one another…
Bad for one another…
Bad for one another…
Bad for one another…
Bad for one another…
You lead me,
I follow,
You know we’re bad for one another…
You kiss me,
I touch you,
You know we’re bad for one another…
You fuck me,
I fuck you,
You know we’re bad for one another…
Bad for one another…
Bad for one another…
Bad for one another…
Bad for one another…

"Gypsum Rain"
Lyrics by Kevyn Douglas Hay © 2004 Nightfeast Music. All rights reserved.
In the past I’ve seen…
People in my life,
Have been slowly, blown,
away… go…
Thoughts I’ve had before,
Leave me violently,
As that feeling, comes over,
me…
I must find relief,
Oh so silently,
Slowly, walk away from the
doubt…
When I forgot to tell you,
Things I felt were real,
Would you wont to say any,
more…
Through the dark I hear you,
Whisper in my ear,
Words of laughter, words of,
fear…
Would you try to keep me,
Here in your arms,
Would you ever let me,
go…
I have tried to love you,
I have tried to care,
I have tried to let you,
know…
In my heart there is no,
Room for you and your,
Tiny little games you,
play…
And that cross I bear,
Waits so patiently,
Beneath the bed where it should,
Stay…
On this final day,
Tears, they flow like wine,
Filling your empty glass of,
