Destination Front Cover

Caught up in a moment

A deep ache that won’t let go

That won’t let go

I watch the devil

Clinging to your bones

The anguish in your gaze

Sever my memory

Any reverie

The hands of time forced their way

A wayward heart’s journey

Never shifts its course

No charity

No angels came to guide your stay

Caught up in a moment

As you drag me down

A deep ache that won’t let go

That won’t let go

Before I lose my patience

As you slowly fell to embers

A deep ache that won’t let go

That won’t let go

As the clock keeps turning

Your silence unnerving

As the clock keeps turning

Your knife in my back

Time marches forward

Free from the vessel of loss

Servants of chaos

No way back through the tides of cause

Caught up in a moment

As you drag me down

A deep ache that won’t let go

That won’t let go

Before I lose my patience

As you slowly fell to embers

A deep ache that won’t let go

That won’t let go

Like a wondering flashlight in the dead of night (The dead of night)

Too far to reach, too close to disown

Is it heaven’s glow or the fires of hell?

Your knife in my back

Caught up in a moment

A deep ache that won’t let go

That won’t let go
