Dancing Fire
Written by Brian Spekis
Meet me in the evening shadows
So we can dance into the moonlight
Higher & higher
Dancing fire
Those before us released their sorrow
Apparition's choir whispers to ignite
Come early morning, color crawling sky
Retreat in spiral circles until next time
Higher & higher
Dancing fire

Lover In The Fall
Written by Brian Spekis
Drive our dreams straight off a cliff
Every night becomes repetitive
Dead inside this is the way you live
I'm going nowhere
Lover in the fall
Walk with me down in the pines
Let's see if there's a spark that could maybe change our lives
Even if it's only tonight
Lover in the fall
Walk with me down in the pines
My head was up in the clouds
Until you came to town
Now i wanna stay on the ground
I'm going nowhere
Is this just a fool's luck
Before anxiety winds up
Maybe it's all just a mindfuck
I'm going nowhere
Lover in the fall
Walk with me down in the pines
Let's see if there's a spark that could maybe change our lives
Even if it's only tonight
Lover in the fall
Walk with me down in the pines

Kinda My Hydra
Written by Brian Spekis
One spring night
You caught my eye
Without you here
I long, I tear
I couldn't ever forget you
You're on your way back again
Draw lines to form your connections
You're like familiar stars in the sky
That guide me home when the time is right
A cosmic snake overhead at midnight
You're kinda my hydra
Days turn to weeks
Turn to months while you're gone
I twist, I turn
Like you in return
I couldn't ever forget you
You're on your way back again
Draw lines to form your connections
You're like familiar stars in the sky
That guide me home when the time is right
A cosmic snake overhead at midnight
You're kinda my hydra

Bats
Written by Brian Spekis
I go to sleep on a dead-end street
Where the trash bags are piled high
Say goodnight to the burned out street light
'Cause I'm not stopping by
Midnight dreamer
On a frozen lake
Midnight dreamer
I make you wait
Midnight dreamer
The ice starts to break
I wake up way too early
To the sound of breaking glass
I try & go back to sleep but baby
All I see are bats
They've been hanging 'round since you left
The places we have flown
How can I turn around & come back
When darkness feels like home?
Midnight dreamer
On a frozen lake
Midnight dreamer
I make you wait
Midnight dreamer
The ice starts to break
I go to sleep on a dead-end street
Where the trash bags are piled high
Say goodnight 'cause I'm not stopping

Highway
Written by Brian Spekis
Every night dreams creep in from childhood
Things that made me smile now make me sigh
I sleep my way through mass
The body of Christ's a trap
The past is still the past when it has passed
I'm sorry, but I can't stay
Lay me down the highway
This time throw it all away
Bury me on the highway
So many dead-end city nights
I lost count
Searching for what does not exist
A ghost I've been assigned
Something I'll never find
I've dug the grave & now I'm walking blind
I'm sorry, but I can't stay
Lay me down the highway
This time throw it all away
Bury me on the highway
Every night dreams creep in from childhood
Things that made me smile now make me sigh
I sleep my way through mass
The body of Christ's a trap
The past is still the past when it has passed

Bad Dream
Written by Brian Spekis
Close my eyes to the darkness of future past
A red room awaits
There I see her
Familiar from my path
The lights they flicker off & on
Off & on
She comes & whispers secrets
Altering what I thought all along
You're a bad dream
Speaking in reverse
A code that leaves me uncertain
Venus de Milo lead me to the red curtain
So tired of the back & forth
Back & forth
Is it her or just her shadow-self screaming in the dark?
You're a bad dream

Buried Next To You
Written by Brian Spekis
Shadow high
Spreading wings to the screaming wide-eyed
Run for your lives
Take me out
All black & blue from the endless shivers
Forever winter
To my love, pale white
I say goodnight
The dark we lay into
All our lives
We would laugh that i'd be
Buried next to you
Shadow low
Watching souls pass by the cellar window
Checking for green halos
Now we cannot see
We can't recall what was previously
What we once used to be
To my love, pale white
I say goodnight
The dark we lay into
All our lives
We would laugh that i'd be
Buried next to you
