Silhouette 07:04
Take my hand Guide me through this I can’t see past the dark When I am left alone How could I Have allowed any hope To grow within When I knew how this would end Looking back It’s all haze The lines of your face Have started to fade I’m reaching for A way to not let go Of your memory Of the life that used to be Hold on Hold on I’ll hold on Even if you’re gone So futile It all seems I’ve tried to hard To let these things be I’m too consumed In misery To see anything else Beyond the pain in me Hold on Hold on I’ll hold on Even if you’re gone And if I try hard enough I can still see your face The pain in your eyes that slowly faded As you left this world behind Flashes of grief fill my memory Of your final touch The warmth of your skin still lingers Even though you’ve gone away
2.
Acquiescence 04:43
So many times These ghosts have fed me lies That I chose to believe So many times I’ve tried to appease The demons inside Tantalizing in their cries The pain inside So hard I’ve tried To keep it away But it still stays The harder I try The more it wins Should I give up And just give in The forest’s whispers Echo in my head It beckons me to hear its song Leading the path Back to myself Long left behind In the shadows of this troubled mind Come sit beside me In the groaning wind As the autumn leaves All turn to grey We’ll leave behind This earthly toil So we can find Serenity
3.
Can you see through Your own fog and veils That shroud the truth You’ve hid so well Among the graves Of the things you killed What’s left Is this broken stone That you left behind Along the ground Destroyed by your corrosive words And I’m still standing On my own Despite this malady And I’m still breathing On my own Despite the air taken from me False mosaic of glass and stone That you formed all on your own Is broken now and covered in earth As you lay in your bed of mirth So surprised that you’re alone As you sit on your broken throne And I still carry this ball and chain Given to me by your hand It gives me strength To change this part that I hate within me

Fragments 04:01
Struggling to breathe again Another useless sigh Spiraling for the hundredth time For ghosts no one cries Made myself bleed again Don’t even have to try Wondering where this will end Another Sleepless night Was it all as it seemed Or have I killed all our dreams Struggling to breathe again A burning in our chest We cannot pretend We’re at each other’s best Afraid to feel the pain The price is much too high Bandage up the hurt inside From wounds we try to hide Is it all as it seems Or have we killed all our dreams I can’t see past tomorrow I can’t sleep with this sorrow I saw you there in the hollow Now there is nothing left
5.
I’ve watched you struggle for so long Relentlessly holding on to life Even though the road ahead Might be traveled in vein The hope I’d see in you Almost made me believe All that remains is this empty space That once was filled by your presence So many times the fear of losing you Would paralyze me But when the nightmare Became reality What more was there Left to do Paralyze me like venom in my veins As this nightmare becomes reality I can’t believe There’s no hope No relief Now I’m left to make Gardens from graves Can’t begin to explain The weight that this brings It’s left me choking And gasping for air
6.
I know it seems this pain Has no end in sight I know that something is missing And the joy of life is gone But these things They won’t last forever Even if the scars remain This burden is not your own I’ll help you carry on Sometimes the strongest one Are the ones who cry the most Sometimes the bravest ones Carry the greatest fear But those who learn to heal Are the ones who have hurt the worst These pains won’t last forever Even if the scars remain Nothing will be the same But you are not the one to blame I will be there until the end When the last tears fall in your hand
7.
This life has taken All of what I had to give There is nothing left in me Vitality is all but drained I have failed to recognize The source of my grief inside I have failed to recognize The reason for my failure in this life Now what’s left is a shadow Of this broken figure And it feels like I’ve failed To recognize the source of my despair I have tried to look inside And ask myself just why I’ve died I have tried to look inside And ask myself who is truly to blame If I could see More clearly Then I could remove This thorn from my side All this time I’ve lived With this weight upon my breast All these years I’ve lived With this pain in my chest
8.
Standing out in the cold With no other place to go The snow begins to fall After the sunlight dies And there’s no more tears to cry Will you go on your own These eyes are tired There’s nothing that they can hide Just an open book Rotten feelings inside Hoping that they will die But no not on their own

about

Gardens from Graves is a concept album which documents the struggle with trying to overcome depression and internal conflict resulted from emotional abuse. The focus is on trying to overcome the inflicted harm despite feelings of hopelessness in an attempt to take back control over one's own life.

This album is also dedicated to the memory of a very close family member that passed away due to cancer in 2020. The opening track titled "Silhouette" is a testament to those final moments that were spent at their bedside as they passed on.

---------------

"...the chalice of Gardens from Graves is overflowing with emotion..."
-Imperative PR

"...fluid and purposeful, patient and encompassing..."
